Do you know your God? In Daniel 2, we find a peculiar story about a King by the name of Nebuchadnezzar who had a disturbing dream. A dream so vivid that it kept him up at night with worry. He then called all the wise men of Babylon and told them that he had a dream that was rather concerning. Of course, they were ready to interpret it, but the king had not told them the dream yet.Why?Because he expected the dream and the interpretation!. This was a crazy request, and no one could do it. This made the king furious,…

What if I told you that we are all, at some point, being brainwashed? Or perhaps undergoing some hypnosis? The subtle lies, the media, the news, and the trends are all a part to play in this grand deception that surrounds us. What if the very choices you think you have have been taken away, and all you have been given is the illusion of free will? Let us take a look at the video below...http://www.kristianmmarion.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Social-Conformity-Brain-Games.mp4#t=0.01Now it's clear to think that this experiment is disappointing because that's exactly how society works. We will give up our individuality to conform and be…

THE GENERATIONAL TRANSCENDENCE OF FUTURE DESCENDANTS Going against the grain of society, what do we have in common regarding the next generation? While abortion rates soar and children are seen as burdens, an obstacle to a fulfilled life, the Bible still declares what God has stated for millennia.Psalms 127:3-5Children are indeed a heritage from the LORD, and the fruit of the womb is His reward.Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are children born in one’s youth.Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them.While society states that children are an inconvenience, the Bible says they are a…

My mission trip to swaziland 3 days | 486km | 9 missionaries I have always wanted to go on a mission trip, especially when I was young but never could afford it. Even going across a border was something I could only dream off. I got my passport three years ago and was planning to visit Lesotho but never got around to it. When my church announced about the Swaziland, I never hesitated. This was a golden ticket to do something for Jesus. After much planning and preparation, I left with a Doctor from my church on Friday, the 16th of…

I never really thought of turning 30, other than the acknowledgement that Jesus began His ministry at that age. And when I turned 30 this February, I really expected to wake up with a theological degree or possibly be shipped to some random country to do mission work.But that's not the case, instead, I awoke as normal, was wished Happy Birthday by someone really special, and went to work. I did have a small party at my church with the Men's Fellowship, and that was my day.No voice from the sky or any sign of doves, but 30 is the age…

A virtue beyond the limits of sight... What can I say about Faith?  Suppose I had to prepare a sermon; what scriptures would I choose?Pastors quickly flock to Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.That's the most common scripture used for Faith. And maybe some will flock to the verse about the mustard seed and moving mountains, not to mention that it is impossible to please God without Faith. We all love the idea of Faith, but no one has ever really read the whole chapter, didn't they? What about Hebrews 11:39-40? These were…

FORGIVENESS Not for the faint of heart... A few years ago, there was an incident where someone was greatly upset that I was attending class quite early. This resulted in him having to leave his current class, which he was supposed to, as the next lesson had begun. After a long time, he reprimanded me while I was waiting in line. As a person who avoids trouble as much as possible, I apologized. However, that did not stop him from slapping me across my face with a deft movement of his hand. My glasses spun away, hit a window and fell…

My Trip to Winterton Do you ever feel like driving to a random city and engaging in spontaneous activities? Well, not me.I'm a planner. Everything is calculated, estimated and thought out. I know where I'm going, my ETA and what I'm going to be doing there. Let's just say my days are scheduled and not left for random dumb things to think of.My trip to Winterton was not taken lightly, rather, that weekend was the Mighty Men's Conference in Estcourt. And since there weren't much places in Estcourt to stay in, I chose the nearest city which was 40km away, Winterton.…
