In yesterdays members’ meeting, the members voted affirming Sam and Arpan as elders. They were ordained and inducted into the church leadership as elders. They will serve in this capacity for three years after which they must be reaffirmed. Join me in praising God for them. This brings in a new era in the history of CCube.

As I write this article on eldership and me I am once again awed by God’s grace in my life. I am eternally indebted to Christ for having known me before the foundation of the world, living for me a perfect sinless life, suffering for me to the point of death, dying on the cruel cross in my stead, rising …

As we approach our first elder affirmation this Sunday, it would be a good for all of us to understand what it means to be an elder. An elder is expected: to lead a life worthy of emulation (Hebrews 13:7) to joyfully watch over the souls of the flock as one who will give an accounting for each of them to …

In my last sermon I dealt with two sins that hinder the pursuit of knowing the strength from joy of the Lord – covetousness and complacency. In my earlier post I had talked about dealing with covetousness, today I will talk about dealing with complacency. Complacency may be due the sin of feeling lazy or due to ignorance.

It was sometime in 2007 I think, when I was staying in Ma’Owz (the place where I stayed in Jayalaksmipuram along with Aubrey, Justin and KaKKi), we were having a discussion regarding church and Aubrey mentioned that it is his desire to see me, as an elder, one day. I just smiled at him that day, but I said to …

In my last sermon I dealt with two sins that hinder the pursuit of knowing the strength from joy of the Lord – covetousness and complacency. Today I will talk about the sin of covetousness. Covetousness is the sin of greed. I am particularly talking about coveting the gifting of others whose God given gifts may cause them to be more visible …

I down with cold this morning. So, I plan to sit back and relax for a bit before I attempt any work. But my thoughts are filled with last night’s celebration. The reminiscence of the last seven years at the anniversary celebration was a wonderful experience. To remember how God has been faithful and how he is working in us …

Songs are an excellent way to teach little children. When Allegra was little, I had read somewhere that songs are an effective way to teach/instruct children. This is so true in our case. When Allegra was around 2 years of age or even younger I used to sing a song to pack up all the toys when we were done …
