However, irrespective of how that expectation of 'good' turns out, we would still be able to deal successfully with whatever this new year brings if we focus on the things which are foundations of our faith: leveraging the grace of God, never losing our faith, and living a life of gratitude. These steps would help us end ...
Send us a textS05E21: From Eternity to Time: God Came to be like UsSeries: GratitudeHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaDuring the Christmas season, we are often reminded of the love of God for humanity whenever we reflect on the reason and what it might have taken for God to become a man. God chose to leave eternity for a moment to dwell in time to become like us. He did this for the sole reason that we might become like Him. In this episode, I discuss what the Christmas story teaches us about the ex...

Dr. Charles ZutaThe modern Hebrew word for gratitude means to 'recognize the good', that is, we making a conscious effort to be aware and appreciative of 'the good' in our lives and circumstances.

Send us a textS05E19: Lessons from God's Ordinances for Human SocietySeries: The Church and the EnvironmentHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaGod did not only provide ordinances for how humanity should relate to the natural environment, but He also provided instructions for how human society can live and thrive in a sinful world, against the backdrop of the fallen human nature. Those guidelines and divine principles which God gave were an expression of his care and love for human beings, and they are...
Send us a textS05E18: The Church and the Environment: Humane Treatment of WildlifeSeries: The Church and the EnvironmentHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaGod instructed ancient Israel not to muzzle the mouth of the Oxen which treads the corn, or not to yoke unequal-sized animals to plough. These and other scriptures reveal the mind of God regarding how humanity relates to animals. While God doesn't want us to revere animals, He does not want us to be cruel to them either. So, why does God care about...
Send us a textS05E17: The Basic Foundation of GratitudeSeries: GratitudeHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaIn a couple of days, the United States would take a break to celebrate thanksgiving. However, the celebration of thanksgiving is not unique to the US, since other cultures around the world also celebrates it in some form. Why is it important in life for us to pause, reflect on our circumstances and be thankful? what constitutes true thanksgiving? Thanksgiving is more than a verbal response, it i...
Send us a textS05E16: Biblical Principles of Sustainable Usage of Plants and AnimalsSeries: The Church and the EnvironmentHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaThe Natural World embodies God's message to humanity. So, when Jesus used the Lilly of the fields and the Sparrows in the air to illustrate God's benevolence and provisions, Jesus was using nature to reveal the invisible attributes of God. Nature therefore speaks and glorifies God. But what if the Sparrows and fields of Lilly were extinct a...
Send us a textS05E15: Biblical Principles of Sustainable Usage of Land & WaterSeries: The Church and the EnvironmentHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaThe Cuyahoga River in Ohio has caught fire on 12 previous occasions, but the fire in 1969 finally got the attention of the US govt to the fact that, ordinarily, Rivers don't burn. The Govt's response was the formation of the EPA in 1970 to control pollution in the US. The dust bowl of the 1930's due to poor land tenure system and agricultural pract...
Send us a textS05E13: This is God's EarthSeries: The Church and the EnvironmentHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaThe Bible establishes unambiguously that God created the earth and everything therein and God entrusted it to the care of Mankind, a position which the Church strongly upholds as opposed to the theory of evolution. So, why then is the Church silent and largely indifferent to any abuse and misuse of the earth? What is the Church's responsibility to the earth and the environment in which we...

Send us a textS05E12: Our GarmentsSeries: Foundational truths of Christianity Host: Rev. Dr. Charles Zuta In the Parable of the prodigal son, his father gave an order to have his son clothed with the best robes as he received him home. Similarly, God our father offers us various garments when we come home to him. While we receive these garments by grace through faith, it is our responsibility to wear and maintain them. In this episode, I discuss what these garments are and how we sh...
Send us a textS05E11: The Father's InvitationSeries: Foundational truths of Christianity Host: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaWhat we don't know can hurt us, the saying goes. It is not any different in our walk of faith. Knowledge of our position and privileges in Christ is our strength. In this series of episodes on the Foundational truths of the Church, I discuss several topics on the very foundation on which our faith is based: grace, mercy, love, righteousness, as well as our responsibil...
Send us a textS05E10: The Good Shepherd Series: Foundational truths of Christianity Host: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaWe hear a lot about how we ought to be loving God and consequently, loving the work of God. In fact, we hear it so much so that we feel that God only loves us when we are 'performing well' based on men's estimation. However, have we paused to ask 'how much does God also love me? Understanding that God's love is not based on how well we think we are performing, and that noth...
Send us a textS05E09: Foundational truths of ChristianityHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaDavid the Psalmist posed a question which echoes down the generations of God's people when he wrote 'If the foundations are destroyed, what shall the righteous do? Foundations support everything standing on them and also define what can be built on them. The church is built on a foundation, which is the knowledge of Jesus Christ as the Son God in the flesh, who came to die for the sins of the world. That...
Send us a textS05E08: The WindSeries: Emblems of the Holy SpiritHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaWind, the movement of air is an enigma. Beyond sustaining all life on the planet, the wind's power and utility is unfathomable. Notably, everything which flies needs air to generate lift, the wind in sails enabled humanity to explore the oceans and travel to distant lands and much more. The wind has also been a divine signature and emblem of the Holy Spirit. What do we learn about the Holy Spirit when w...
Send us a textS05E07: The FireSeries: Emblems of the Holy SpiritHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaFire catches attention, whether as a burning bush which is not being consumed, Nebuchadnezzar's furnace or a rocket hurtling into space. We always react to fire either fearfully or with admiration and awe. The benefits of fire to mankind are endless, we have harnessed the power of fire to do mighty things such as the internal combustion engine to make us travel faster and rockets to help us escape the p...
Send us a textS05E06: Rain DropsSeries: Emblems of the Holy SpiritHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaThe importance of rain to life on earth is undeniable. However, the rain can also have deadly consequences depending on how we relate to it. In the Scriptures, God similarly uses the rain to show his favor and illustrate the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on His People, but He also uses the rain as an instrument of judgement. So, what does the rain teach us about the Holy Spirit when it is used as an e...
Send us a textS05E05: The RiversSeries: Emblems of the Holy SpiritHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaRivers have influenced the development of human societies, and still do, such as the Nile, Danube, Thames and many others. They awe us with their power, resilience, and ability to sustain all kinds of life on the planet. It is therefore not a coincidence that Jesus compared the outpouring of the Holy Spirit to the flow of rivers of living water. There are several lessons that we can learn from the riv...
Send us a textS05E03: The DewSeries: Emblems of the Holy SpiritHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaThe dew is important for the survival of life forms on earth, especially in the arid regions where rainfall is scanty and water is scarce. The dew is so important that when Elijah pronounced a judgement on Israel because of the wickedness of King Ahab and Jezebel, by imposing a drought, he also withheld the dew. Similarly, when David cursed Mount Gilboa where King Saul was slain in battle, he withheld no...
Send us a textS05E03: The OilSeries: Emblems of the Holy SpiritHost: Rev. Dr. Charles ZutaThe Anointing Oil is used widely in the Church, and rightly so because the Church embraces the connection between the Holy Spirit, Anointing, and the Anointing Oil. However, there are strict guidelines governing the Anointing Oil in its first appearance in the Scriptures when God asked Moses to formulate it. These guidelines give us hints of the nature and invisible attributes of the Holy Spirit which we...
