This is part of our summer series, Complementary, at The Well on Tuesdays at 8pm. SHOULD CHRISTIAN WOMEN LEAD? Yes! You must! Every Christian should being saying to others with the Apostle Paul, “Follow me, as I follow Christ” (1 Cor. 11:1). All Christians, both men and women, are called to make disciples; to lead others into mature faith in Jesus by…
This is part of our summer series, “Complementary“, at The Well on Tuesdays at 8pm. WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A MAN? We know that both men and women are created equally in the “Imago Dei“, and therefore have inherent dignity and a divine purpose to glorify God. While we celebrate our “sameness” as men and women, the question of…
This past week, I discovered my grip on Gods love has become more of an “on my terms and conditions” kind of agreement. I also have this sense of entitlement to it, and it took a small child misbehaving in my class for me to see it. The weekly project was an exciting, yet very stressful one, because these beads…

We are continuing through Paul’s letter to the Philippians at The Well, and have arrived on the topic of anxiety this Tuesday. In chapter four, Paul says this to the Philippian church, “do not be anxious about anything” (v.6). WHAT IS ANXIETY? Anxiety is when we freak out and stress out over our lives. Many times it sinks in over…
