Live the truth – whatever it costs
This is a beautiful testimony from someone who lived the truth: Richard Wurmbrand was an evangelical minister in Romania during the Soviet occupation after World War II. When the communists came to power, they convened a so-called “Congress of Cults”, where religious leaders were supposed to swear allegiance to the new communist regime and declare […]

Dream, ask, and receive
As parents, we want the best for our children. We choose the best schools for them. We spend hours next to sports fields. We buy the best equipment and everything they need to walk the path of success in life. We would like them to achieve something in life. We absolutely believe in their dreams […]

Heaven is already pulling and pushing
John made a point when he wrote about eternal life, and we follow him. My son had the privilege of participating in the Ironman World Championships in Kona, Hawaii. It was a great honour to represent his country in his age group. He trained hard. Two sessions a day for almost a year. His coach […]

It’s getting harder and harder to believe.

Just keep believing
Sometimes I wonder if God and Jesus are real. Yes, sometimes I’m overcome with doubt and then I wonder. But then I think to myself that my father and all the other great theologians would certainly not have missed the mark. Then I pity people who don’t believe. One day they will get such a […]

Light in the darkness
I was sitting on the platform with my station master friend. He is forthright and calls a spade a spade. He says that so-called Christians who do not do good to others and do not make a difference in other people’s lives aren’t true Christians. That’s quite a hard statement, but I suspect it’s not […]
