Motivation is the driving force that pushes people to achieve their goals and aspirations. It is especially important in a team setting where the success of the group is dependent on the collective effort of each individual. However, teams can sometimes experience a lack of motivation, leading to decreased productivity and morale.

Baptism is a significant event in the life of a Christian. It is the outward expression of an inward transformation that occurs when we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.

As Christians, one of the most important aspects of our faith is worshiping God. This includes singing praises to Him. The Bible tells us to sing to the Lord a new song, all the earth. This means that singing is not just reserved for a select few or for a specific occasion, but it is something that should be done by all Christians, all the time.

As human beings, we are often faced with challenges and obstacles that may impede our progress towards success. While it is natural to encounter difficulties, it is important to take responsibility for our actions and decisions in order to overcome them. Unfortunately, some people may make excuses for their lack of success rather than taking ownership of their situations. In this regard, we explore some common reasons why people make excuses for their failures and present Bible-based solutions to help overcome them.

Laziness is often perceived as not doing anything at all, but in reality, it's not doing the things that we don't like or find challenging.

Successful people can push through the discomfort and do what needs to be done, even if they don't enjoy it. They are disciplined and can systematically tackle tasks, even if they are not exciting. On the other hand, lazy people may seem busy, but they are often busy doing the wrong things or procrastinating.

Paris is widely known as the city of love, but it also needs the love of Jesus. Recently, I had an incredible opportunity to join the Wandsworth Church team in Paris to witness for Jesus on the streets. It was an experience filled with inspiration and hope.

Often, we struggle to say "no" because we're accustomed to pleasing everyone around us. We may overestimate our availability and ability, leading us to take on more than we can handle. However, learning to say "no" to the right things at the right time can be one of the most powerful and positive decisions we make.

The Bible offers a powerful remedy for anxiety in Philippians 4:6-7. God tells us not to be anxious about anything, but to bring our requests to Him in prayer with thanksgiving. The peace of God, which transcends understanding, will then guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. It's natural to face situations that feel overwhelming, but God wants us to turn to Him in prayer and trust in His strength and wisdom. By doing so, we can experience His peace and witness to others about His grace and love. The peace of God not only comforts us in difficult times, but also protects us from anxiety and negative emotions. Let us turn to God in prayer and find peace in His presence, knowing that He is always with us.

This blog highlights the common theme of not fearing in Scripture and provides five key verses to meditate on to overcome fear and find courage in God.

Self-centered people can be oversensitive and self-absorbed, making it difficult for them to connect with others and feel empathy. They may struggle in a church setting where there is a focus on serving others and growing as a community. The Bible encourages self-centered individuals to turn to Jesus and become more focused on him, as this can help them overcome their tendency to be self-absorbed and improve their relationships with others.

In 2014, when we were in Jamaica, after a heated discussion with my wife and eldest son, I realised something about me that I hadn’t seen in the longest while – my judgment was off. I have been wrong so many times, but this one was different. After much self-reflection, I realised that something was changing in me. It was like driving a car that was pulling to one side, like something was wrong with the steering – my alignment was off.

In this Bible study on discipleship, the focus is on putting Christ first. To be a real disciple, we must desire Him, obey His commands, and find delight in Him. Desire for Christ involves repentance and asking God for that desire, recognizing that it is a spiritual thing. Duty is obedience to Christ, and it is our responsibility to obey Him. As we obey God and do our duty, we will see another side of Him and find delight in Him. Once we truly find satisfaction and worth in Christ, He will give us the desires of our hearts. Only then can we be true disciples who are able to delight in Him.

This discipleship Bible study focuses on being teachable. To be a disciple, you must be willing to forsake earthly ties and things, continue in His Word, and be teachable. Being teachable means being able to learn by being taught. To become teachable, you need to be hungry, honest, and humble. Hunger for God means seeking the righteousness of Christ, not the riches and pleasures of this world. Honesty requires examining ourselves to see if our actions reflect a genuine conversion. Humility involves recognizing that we need to be taught and being willing to learn from others.
