Kindness is not just an internal characteristic; it is love moved by compassion. In order to release kindness to others, you need to receive the kindness that God offers you. God's kindness leads to repentance. When we demonstrate kindness, we reflect the very nature of Christ.Oleh The weekly podcast of Bethesda Christian Church in Sterling Heights, MI

The Lord's patience is vast while our human patience is often driven by our limited perspective. The Lord is neither slow nor hurried; rather, He stands outside of time surveying everything with purpose. Patience isn't just waiting, but believing that God is working even when we can't yet see it.Oleh The weekly podcast of Bethesda Christian Church in Sterling Heights, MI

Whether he knows it or not, he is dishonouring our ble…

In God's kingdom, surrender is the path to peace. Jesus, the Prince of Peace, surrendered His life to bring us peace. To cultivate peace, you must first lay down yourself and your preferences.

Luke 15:1-2 If one was to stop you and to ask, “What is God like?”, I wonder what answer you’d give? What attribute would come first to mind? Would it be God’s holiness or omnipotence?

If our source is the Spirit, the fruit will be good and life-giving. Without Him, we can do nothing. Love is not merely an emotion or an action we muster on our own. Instead, it is a divine quality that flows from our relationship with God. The source of true love lies in our dependence on Christ.Oleh The weekly podcast of Bethesda Christian Church in Sterling Heights, MI
