Pastoral Letters are weekly communications from our church pastor to the congregation. They are mostly original reflections on the Word of God in response to church events or current affairs, local or beyond, with the primary intent to exhort Christians to live rightly before God in the real world. Short bibliographies are sometimes featured towards the same end.
We pray that these writings will be a great blessing to you!

Christians remember the Lord Jesus’ resurrection from the dead on Easter because His resurrection is important to us. The Lord Jesus’ resurrection from the dead means that He is the true God, and that He has triumphed over death and the power of sin. If Jesus had not been resurrected...
