Pneuma Podcast Revd Michael Angley Ogwuche

Based on John 20:24-29 "Faith Beyond Doubt," explores the enduring struggle with doubt, drawing from the account of Thomas in John 20:24-29. Thomas's demand for tangible proof mirrors our own yearning for certainty amidst uncertainty. However, Jesus meets doubt with grace, offering evidence to Thomas while blessing those who believe without seeing. Faith, we learn, transcends empirical evidence, requiring trust in the unseen. Despite doubts, we're encouraged to bring them to God, seek community, and fix our gaze on Christ. Through this journey, we cultivate a faith that moves beyond doubt, embracing the hope of the resurrection. It is my prayer today that this message blesses you.

Based on Romans 7:19-25 "Overcoming Yourself: A Journey of Surrender to God." Calls believers in Jesus Christ to introspect. In our key text today , Paul eloquently portrays the inner conflict between our desires for goodness and our selfish inclinations. Like Paul, we grapple with this struggle daily. Despite our best intentions, self-reliance creeps in, hindering our spiritual journey. Reflecting on my own faith, I've realised that self often stands as my greatest obstacle. But through self-discovery and surrender, we find liberation. Just as Peter struggled with self-trust, we too face similar battles. Yet, there is hope in surrendering to God's will. This is the message today and it is my prayer that this message blesses you wherever you are on your journey of faith.
 
Shalom!

Based on  1 Corinthians 1:18-25 the Way of the Cross invites listeners to reflect on the timeless truths found in that passage. As we approach the Easter season, we're drawn to the central event of our faith: the passion, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. In this passage, the apostle Paul challenges us to reconsider the significance of the cross because to the unbelieving the message of the Cross is Foolish and Scandalous, however, to believers in Jesus Christ the message of the cross is Powerful. So much so that in its apparent weakness, we find God's ultimate strength and love. As you listen to this message I encourage you to embrace "The Way of the Cross" this Easter season, living lives marked by humility, sacrificial love, and the proclamation of salvation. Stay tuned for an inspiring journey through Scripture. Many Blessings.
