Imago Dei
Toxic relationships? No way. Not if you are an image-bearer of our Creator. Sharmini Samuel says all your relationships, be it within family or friends or anyone outside these circles too, have to be God-reflecting.
The Master still speaks
We are works in progress, like Peter was. After rising from the dead, Jesus bent his steps to Galilee and met up with his disciples. Not to chide Peter, but to reassure him of His love and goodness, says Mr.Emmanuel Manchikalpudi.
What is your prayer?
We are called to worship God in spirit and in truth. Listen to Neil Vimalkumar as he helps us examine our spiritual pilgrimage with deep, personal and practical questions.
Distance can be tough
Distance or being far away from help can be distressing. It’s okay to not be okay. If you’re struggling or suffering, just reach out for counsel, prayer or support. The One and Only will meet you where you are, not to shame you but to save you, says Bishop Shan Mathew.
In and through Community

Between You & Jesus!
Sometimes we get discouraged when we look at the lives of leaders we esteem. It will be a good idea if we are focussed on our calling, says Vadivel Victor, for ultimately it’s between us and Him.
Strength is in Dependence
If strength training helps build your muscles, it’s total dependence on God and certainly not your activities or action that tone up your spiritual muscles, says Rev Dr Daniel Koti
What are you proud of?
The world makes much of accomplishment, power, strength, knowledge and wealth. But our Lord calls us to KNOW him more and understand him better. Plug into his source of fresh living water and pull away from the race for power, wealth and worldly wisdom, recommends Sharmila Livingston.
