Our focus for this week is helping you improve as you embark on your christian walk. We alsow have something for fathers day as we explore what being a man is all about. Check it out…
To Watch-Man Up (Movie)
For this week we have a film about manhood done by Reach Records. The film tackles issues surrounding manhood, what it is, what it’s not and how God intends men to perceive and conduct themselves as they carry out the roles that He has purposed for them on earth. I hope it helps to find a starting point to understanding what God’s intention for manhood is.
To Listen
Beautiful Eulogy – Doxology
To Listen this week is a song by the trio that goes by the name Beautiful Eulogy called Doxology. The term Doxology means praise, and this is the drive of the song, to give praise to God from whom all blessings flow. Let the amazing sound evoke a never-ending spirit of praise and gratitude in you. Enjoy.
To Read
When God Withholds Something Good
This week we have an article by Marshal Segal. In the article he talks about what it means when God with holds things that we think are good for us. He gives the example of the children of Israel when they were in the desert and shows how God wit holds some things from us to test our heats and build our faith in Him. I hope this gives you some perspective on how to deal with situations where it seems like God is withholding good from us..

To Do
Get Financial Education
In our country, unless you venture into commercial academics most people don’t usually get deliberate or intentional education about finances from school or even at home. This is a huge problem because to function as a healthy individual in society you need at least basic financial education. Everyone must deal with money at some point and we must manage it well in order get financial freedom and provide for our families well. So, whatever you do, whatever age you are (the younger you start the better) start looking into getting yourself some financial education. It doesn’t have to be formal or anything. In this age of the internet there is a plethora of information available to help you even on YouTube. You can start watching videos and reading books or attending seminars to get yourself acquainted with the financial world. God intends us to be good stewards of the gifts he gave us and to manage our money well.
Bible Verse
Psalm 3:3 ESV
But you, O LORD, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head.
Whenever things get tough and life seems to be out to get you let this verse remind you that God almighty is your shield, to protect you, and He will lift your head up whenever despair threatens your peace.
