It’s Your Moment Too – Part Three

It's Your Moment Too - Part Three - Emmanuel Naweji

Here’s the third part in the series, “It’s Your Moment.” So far, we’ve looked at two reasons this time is your moment too: Your true identity in part one. You find hope in God who changes times in part two.   In this reflection, we will use Deuteronomy 31:6-8 as our foundation, Be strong and […]

It’s Your Moment Too – Part Two

It's Your Moment Too - Part Two - Emmanuel Naweji

In this reflection, I use the story of Daniel as we continue with our series, “It’s your moment.” Check out the one I shared previously in the series by clicking here.  Read first Daniel 2:20-23, which I will use as the scriptural foundation for our reflection,  During the night the mystery was revealed to Daniel […]

The Book of Hebrews: Living by Faith

The Book of Hebrews: Living by Faith - Emmanuel Naweji

This article is the last reflection in the series, The Book of Hebrews. It covers the last three chapters of the book: 11 through 13.  Here’s how I’d divide the entire book.  First, the author of the book makes the point of who Jesus is, in chapters 1 through 10.  Remember the letter was originally […]

On Faith

On Faith - Emmanuel Naweji

This article is the first of the four in this series as we reflect on 4 Biblical words that begin with the letter “F.” These words are among the most used throughout scripture, which we all need to be aware of since a mastery of these concepts will daily sustain us as Christians. For the […]

Conviction Over Convenience

Conviction Over Convenience - Emmanuel Naweji

This part of Acts speaks to something we all want: convenience. We will use chapter 21 for this reflection. Read verses 1 through 16. You can also read the entire chapter if you want.  Chapter 21 is like the transition from Paul’s last missionary journey (third) to his trip to Rome, which also marked the […]

Called to Share the Story

Called to Share

There are a ton of books out there talking about how to share the story of our faith. A common word is “witness.”  Scholars, preachers, and speakers, all talk about this subject. A lot of thinkers say that the decline of our Churches resides in the inability of our Church people to witness their faith.  […]

Called to Care

Part of our calling as people born of water and the Spirit is to care for others!  That’s in addition to being God’s servants, and Christian leaders. Review my previous reflections:  You’re baptized, then you are God’s servant.  You are called to lead.  Before delving into today’s reflection, read the following words from our Lord, […]

Called to Lead

Every Christian, born of water and the Spirit, not only is she/he a servant of God but is also called to lead!  That’s kind of redundant, one would think. Isn’t it?  Of course, how can you be a servant of God without becoming a leader? And, how can you be born of water and the […]

Fear to Hope

Fear to Hope - Emmanuel Naweji

  At the time, I’m updating this article from April 2020, it’s the first day of March 2021. And, that’s close to a year into the COVID pandemic. Even though more people are increasingly getting now the vaccine, we should still admit that there’s been a lot of fear in society, as a result of […]

Our Ultimate Goal as a Church

Our Ultimate Goal as a Church - Emmanuel Naweji

  What’s your only goal as a Church?  The obvious answer, most of us will give could be “to make disciples of Jesus Christ.” Sometimes, I feel like we show it more on paper, but not in real life.  You may probably disagree with me on that. But, let me ask you: “how many disciples […]
