Pastoral Letters are weekly communications from our church pastor to the congregation. They are mostly original reflections on the Word of God in response to church events or current affairs, local or beyond, with the primary intent to exhort Christians to live rightly before God in the real world. Short bibliographies are sometimes featured towards the same end.
We pray that these writings will be a great blessing to you!

Jesus outlines the attitudes and characteristics of those who are blessed in the Kingdom of Heaven in the Beatitudes. This verse is one of the most profound in the Beatitudes because it addresses the human experience of grief and loss, promising divine comfort. While it may seem paradoxical to associate...
When a person hears the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit opens their spiritual understanding such that they not only understand the message, but also understand its importance, and are attracted to the goodness of the gospel.
