Proverbs 27:20 “Hell and Destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied.” (NKJV) This verse is a reminder not to be deceived by our eyes. I would like to highlight this deception in our quest for sexual purity. The more nudity and impurity we indulge our eyes on, the more unsatisfied our souls become. And if…More
Before I got married, I served in several ministries in church. My favourite was the Bible Challenge ministry. We would meet once in a year and train to compete with other churches for the Bible Challenge trophy .

The Wamboye family has innovated a new board game. We are calling it “Logos: The Ultimate Bible Board Game.” Logos is an idea that started in 2017.

I recently had a brief online discussion with a friend of mine on using a seeker-sensitive approach in reaching out to youth who are not attending church. If you have not heard the term before, seeker sensitivity is an approach by some churches to reach people who do not attend the church through attractive mediums.

Father’s day is coming up. The more years I clock as a father, I cannot help but notice the profound impact that the male parent has on a child.

Proverbs 31:3-5 “Do not give your strength to women, your ways to those who destroy kings.
