The role of a father (Father's day message)
A father anchors the family with stability, direction, and protection. His words and actions shape how his children understand love, responsibility, and faith. By leading with integrity and presence, he builds confidence and security in those who depend on him. A father’s quiet strength and steady guidance often become the unseen foundation on which the whole home stands.

The power of your testimony (part 3)
This is part 3 of a series entitled "Go tell the world". In this session, Abri will share how to structure your testimony. It is all about sharing your testimony as a witness to others. This series aims to help Christians share their faith in Jesus Christ practically and straightforwardly. We will focus on the salvation of people and how you can play a role in guiding someone to Christ. Although the information I will be sharing is “basic” and “simple,” it will be life-changing if applied to your life.Many well-known verses in the Bible are often poorly obeyed. One such example is found in Matthew chapter 28, "Go and make disciples...". As believers, it is not enough to merely believe; we must also act in accordance with our convictions and beliefs concerning Biblical truth.
