Why Study the Book of James? Greg Gilbert
An Oft-Cited, Yet Challenging Book. Of all the books in the New Testament, James is perhaps the one that gives Christians the most difficulty. We simply don’t quite know what to do with it! On the one hand, James’s letter is certainly one of the most quoted books of the entire Bible. It’s filled with famous phrases that often make their way into Christian conversation: “Faith produces steadfastness.” “God cannot be tempted.” “Every good and perfect gift comes from above.”

A legacy of quiet faith
On this Mother’s Day, I find myself reflecting deeply on my mother’s steadfast faith in the Lord. She went home to be with Him last year, and though I rejoice in her glorious homecoming, I still find myself reaching for her in the quiet, ordinary moments. The loss has left a space in my life that no one else can fill, yet in that space, there is a profound resonance of the lessons she imparted, both through her words and the silent language of her example. My mother was a s

Remembered by God (Hebrews 11)
If Hebrews 11 had been written by us, we might have written it differently. We would likely have chosen cleaner stories, safer names and figures with fewer stains on their record. We prefer heroes we can admire without complications. But Hebrews 11 is not written to flatter man’s achievement. It is written to magnify the faithfulness of God. One of the deepest comforts about this chapter is not merely who is included, but what their inclusion tells us about our God who reme

Our 38th ACM - A Holy Gathering Under Christ’s Rule
Today after Sunday Service, we gather as one Hermon family at Henderson for our 38th annual congregational meeting. It is easy to think of our ACM as a necessary formality — a review of reports, finances, budget, and plans. Yet Scripture calls us to see more. When the people of God gather, even for matters of administration, we are participating in something deeply spiritual, the visible outworking of Christ’s rule over His church. This meeting is not merely about busines

A love that Disciplines and Restores
Throughout our journey in the book of Hosea, we have seen God issuing a sobering charge against Israel. From the priests to the people, there was a systemic rejection of the knowledge of God. The people of Israel pursued idolatry, foolishly choosing spiritual adultery over covenantal intimacy. Yet, because God is righteous and just, this covenantal unfaithfulness could not be ignored; judgment and discipline were the necessary consequences but also an expression of an immense

The Lord's Tender Compassion
The prophet Hosea was called to minister to an unfaithful Israel, whose culture had been so corrupted by pagan worldviews and practices that nothing short of exile sufficed as a consequence. Yet, even in judgment, love persisted. Hosea knew this all too well, for he was called to “love an unfaithful wife” (3:1) as a reflection of God’s own love for his unfaithful children. It is this judgment with love; this discipline with grace, that sets God apart from the pagan deities

In a Scrolling World, Are We Numb to the Resurrection’s Shock? [1]
In our fast-paced, information-saturated world, it seems we only have time to spare for the latest headlines and soundbites, not for old stories. We’re refreshing our pages every moment for the next new update, so even the latest trend is soon replaced and forgotten, consigned to the scrapheap of history. Yet some stories need to be remembered, commemorated and celebrated. Easter is one of them. May this article 1 encourage us to never be numb towards the timeless and terr

Palm Sunday Amid Geopolitical Conflict
Not a day goes by without the war in the Middle East making the headlines. If you follow it too closely like I have, it is possible for the news of the horrors of war and destruction to consume you, and you start to feel negatively affected by it. However as Christians, we know that all these happen within God’s sovereignty so we always need to re-align ourselves with God’s Word to make sense of it all. Observing Palm Sunday during this time of conflict can help us put some o

Reaping the Whirlwind
“You reap what you sow”, is an idiom present in various cultures. It cautions us that our present actions have future consequences, often corresponding to its nature. “Play stupid games, win stupid prizes” is how the current generation would put it. The fact is, we can’t avoid the law of cause and effect. So, it is important to be prudent in our actions. In Hosea 8, Israel chose to invest in a relationship with a violent, imperialistic nation – Assyria – for national securi

Missiles and Moments of Clarity
As the world trembles from the reverberations caused by the war in Iran, we are left wondering ‘when will these wars end’, ‘where can peace be found’, and perhaps even ‘whether God is still in sovereign control’. Such questions are needed and natural in times like these. And this article 1 helpfully reminds us that even as missiles fly, there is hopeful clarity offered to us in the Word. May it encourage our hearts as we yearn and pray for the blessed reign of Christ. Ps L
