  • The Cost of Becoming Too Familiar with God

    One of the most sobering chapters I have read so far in Leviticus is chapter 10. What makes it even more shocking is the timing. Just one chapter earlier, everything seemed perfect. Aaron and his sons had been consecrated. The sacrifices had been offered correctly. The glory of God appeared before the people. Fire came…

  • Even The Priest Needed Saving

    Reading Leviticus 4–7 honestly gave me a different perspective on modern Christianity. One thing that caught my attention strongly was this: Leviticus 4:3 KJV “If the priest that is anointed do sin according to the sin of the people; then let him bring for his sin, which he hath sinned, a young bullock without blemish…

  • Leviticus 1–3 Really Made Me Appreciate Jesus

    I just finished reading Leviticus chapters 1–3 and honestly… all I kept thinking was: “Jesus Christ THANK YOU.” Because the amount of sacrifices happening there? Ah. No wonder the priests stayed busy.Burnt offerings.Grain offerings.Peace offerings.Blood everywhere.Morning sacrifices.Evening sacrifices.Animals constantly being brought to the altar.At one point I was reading and thought: “Imagine if this was…

  • Exodus 18 and the Leadership Trap Many Visionaries Fall Into

    There is a dangerous trap many people with vision fall into. It usually starts with passion. You care deeply. You want things done properly. You want excellence. You want to help people. And because of that, you slowly begin to carry everything alone. At first, it feels noble. Then it becomes exhausting. Exodus 18 gives…

  • What Leah teaches us about feeling unseen in today’s world

    Feeling unloved doesn’t always look like tears… sometimes it looks like trying harder, giving more, and still feeling unseen. Leah’s story reminds us how deep that wound can go but also where true healing begins.

  • When Favouritism Breaks a Family

    As I was reading this story in the Book of Genesis 27, I had to pause. The more I read about the family of Isaac and Rebekah, the more uncomfortable I felt. It is a difficult story because it reflects something that still happens in many families today. Isaac and Rebekah had twin sons: Esau…

  • When It’s Hot And God Says Stay

    As I read Genesis 26, it felt very personal. There was a famine in the land. Things were hard. Resources were low. The pressure was real. Isaac did what most of us would do – he started moving. When things get uncomfortable, we look for relief. When work becomes stressful, we update our CV. When…

  • Assumptions have a subtle way of creeping into our relationships and quietly damaging them. You send a message and it isn’t replied to. Hours pass. Maybe a day. Instead of pausing, your mind begins to build a story. They must be upset with me. I’ve done something wrong. They’re ignoring me. And before long, your…

  • I was meditating on Genesis 12, and one thing keeps standing out to me: God chooses to use anyone, no matter their background. Abraham didn’t grow up in a perfect home. His father worshipped idols, yet God still spoke to him. That tells me God is not looking at where you are coming from; He…

  • Walking With God Like A Best Friend

    Have you ever wondered what it looks like to walk with God in everyday life: at home, at work, in the quiet moments?
