FAVOURITES
Blessed Are The Childless Women
Many women today believe that it is troublesome and a burden to have children. These women are selfish, motivated to get to the top of the working order, only to fail to realize that their inner desire they’re trying to fill will never be filled in work. That inner emptiness that women feel can only be filled by…
The Spirit Of Him Who Raised Jesus From The Dead Lives In You… Or CAN Live In You
There are many accounts in the Bible of dead people coming back to life. There are also countless accounts of people coming back from the dead in our every day lives. There are books, and stories, and news articles, and videos of these accounts and yet, somehow, someway we manage to still not believe in an almighty and powerful God…
Preach The Good News, Not The Impending Doom & Gloom
At some point in our lives, we have talked about changing the world, or making an impact, or wanting to be remembered when we’re gone… But do any of us really take the reigns on our lives and make the changes we need to make in order to make these things true?
Forgiveness Leads To Freedom
We forgive not for our sake – for that is a selfish reason. But we forgive so that our transgressors may be forgiven by Christ. Christ will forgive us once we forgive others, but the main reason is so that our transgressors may be forgiven by Christ. Especially if they are unbelievers, we must forgive, so that…
Are You Truly Willing To Submit To The Lord?
Coming to Christ and obeying Him are two different things. When we first come to Christ we are over thrilled and excited for this new life with Him. But then our other beliefs get in the way of following His will…
‘Endure Patiently, My Child’
“Endure patiently, my child.” Your Heavenly Father is whispering in your ear right now.
This life may seem tough, but it is all meant to built our character and strengthen our faith in Jesus Christ. It is all for a purpose; the purpose to glorify God and His mighty power. It will all be over soon and we will be able to
MOVIE REVIEWS
‘Finding Faith’ Pureflix Movie Review
I have to say, this is one of my favourite movies thus far. Pureflix can be notorious for not the highest production quality on some of their films, but this was the exception. It was a great production quality, great filming, great story, and great acting.
The title is exactly…
‘The Man From Nowhere’ Pureflix Movie Review
Christ offers redemption; a chance to change. He can turn our life story around in the blink of an eye, but He won’t do it until we say yes; until we surrender; until we accept our wrongdoing and come before Him asking for forgiveness and asking for help.
The Man From Nowhere is a story about…
Chloe’s Mountain Movie Review
I have to admit, my favourite aspect of Pureflix, is that the movies on it aren’t afraid to display death, because death in this life is a good thing for believers, for they have began their new life in eternity with the Lord. I appreciate how they don’t shy away from the topic and how they…
‘The Prayer Box’ Review
I recently watched a short, 4 part series on Pureflix called The Prayer Box. It was about a little boy with a sister who had cancer. Their mom was always at the hospital with her, and so he had to manage a lot without her.
He went to church one day and went to the front to pray for her sister and also write down his prayer and put it into the little box at the podium. When he was leaving church, he realized he forgot his jacket at the front when he had been praying. He went back inside and to his surprise he saw the pastor throwing out all of the prayers from the prayer box…
BOOK REVIEWS
'Heaven Is For Real' by Todd Burpo - Book Review
This true story will have you wishing you could visit Heaven, even if it would be just three minutes… But, after reading it fully, it almost feels as though you did visit Heaven with Colton that day. The details shared were astonishing; the information that Colton knew was shocking – knowing that it’s coming from a four year old that wouldn’t have…
"If" by Amy Carmicahel - Book Review
We are called to love our neighbours as ourselves, yet every single one of us struggles with this seemingly “simple” commandment… It isn’t so simple! For we are selfish, and prideful, and bitter and mean. But Amy Carmichael calls out all of our human pitfalls and graciously convicts us of our low points.
This book changed my life. It truly did…
‘Pieces of Forever’ by Valerie M. Bodden - Book Review
Pieces of Forever is about a woman (Ava) who lost her identity when she became a victim of a fire. Her whole left side of her body was badly burnt, leaving her with terrible scars, and needing more than one skin graphing surgery. A planned to be model, was now never going to have her dreams come true… After this traumatic accident…
‘Tending Roses’ by Lisa Wingate - Book Review
Tending Roses was a beautiful story touching on topics such as family and love, learning to forgive, the reality of life ending and new life beginning, and all of the in between. Nestle up with a cup of tea and enjoy this…
