Today
When God speaks to your heart, it’s not a casual invitation—it’s an urgent call.
Psalm 95:8 says, “Today, if only you would hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.”
But too often, we hesitate. We wait. We say we’re too busy or that the timing isn’t right. Yet in the delay, we risk missing the blessing that comes with faith and obedience.
Don’t put off what God is calling you to do—today.

Fire from Heaven?
Have you ever felt unwelcome? How did you respond?
In Jesus’ time, Jews and Samaritans didn’t get along—and it showed. So when a Samaritan village refused to welcome Jesus and His disciples, it wasn’t all that surprising.
What was surprising was how the disciples reacted. Even though Jesus had been teaching them to love—even their enemies—they asked if they should call down fire from heaven to destroy the village!
Clearly, they still had a lot to learn.
To see how Jesus responded, watch today’s video based on Luke 9:51–56.
The Greatest Among Us
The disciples still didn’t understand. They thought Jesus was on His way to becoming king—and they imagined themselves as important figures in His royal court. But once again, Jesus told them that He would be betrayed. This frightened them so much that they didn’t dare ask Him what He meant. Instead of facing it, they ignored it.
Not long after, they began arguing about which of them was the greatest! To teach them a lesson, Jesus called a little child to sit beside Him—making a powerful point about what greatness really looks like in God’s kingdom.

I Can’t Do It
Our church had only one child at the time, but a few faithful people took up the challenge to start a full-fledged Sunday School. Before it even began, someone stopped me after church and said, “Smart idea! But where are you going to find the children?”
One week later, we opened the doors to ten children.
When we limit God’s work to what we think we can do, we completely miss the point.

A Glimpse of Heaven
Have you ever wondered what heaven might be like? In Luke 9:27–36, Peter, James, and John were given a rare and breathtaking glimpse of Jesus in His heavenly glory. It was a moment that left them in awe—and it speaks volumes to us today.

Losing Your Way
Before walking into any meeting, I used to pray. But as I grew older, my prayer often became, “Lord, help me be Your servant—for what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, but loses himself?” I had seen ambition harden some of my peers into dispassionate, even ruthless leaders, willing to push aside anyone in their path. Few realized that in chasing success, they had lost their way.
