Reflection on Titus 1 (week 1, 2026)
Christianity is hard to understand because God is impossible to understand
My friend called me a sinner for laughing at crude jokes
free devotional guides for your quiet time
My Christian friend took a shit on me for enjoying time and laughing at crude jokes with some friends, even calling me a sinner. “Lord, I want to get to know people but it’s challenging to wrestle with our differences. You hold yourself to the highest moral values, yet because you loved us so much, …

Firstly, let me just say that it is a mouthful but I deliberately avoided God because in common usage he is defined within a religion and my intention is to talk about God outside religious constructs. This came out of my little article yesterday about making life choices even though there is no certainty about …

This came up—well, not exactly as I’ve framed it but I thought it expresses the question well—in a conversation with someone today. We were joking about earning brownie points with “the one who determines our fate” and she asked, but what if there is nothing and death is the end, how would you decide? I …

I don’t see the value of a church. All I see in them is hypocrisy and Sundays seem to be days when Christians come out “hypocriting”.

(Admin: Someone shared this article with me and I found it very useful and decided to reproduce it here. You can find it on crossway.org) It is a marvel how personally the Bible applies. The words pointedly address the concerns of long-ago people in faraway places, facing specific problems, many of which no longer exist. …

I’m confused by Titus 2:9 “Teach slaves to be subject to their masters in everything, to try to please them, not to talk back to them”. I was always struggling in my previous job experience when the boss only like to hear what they like to hear but refuse to hear the truth. As a …

Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. (Proverbs 3:7 NIV) I have been wise in my eyes for a while now but I’m not sure how to manage my thinking that I’m greater. How does one bring themselves to realise their need for God? It is a fine …
