Episode 34-2026 – Unchanged Realities in Changing Times
We continue to pursue our focus this morning as it relates to Change and Newness. Ever so often, we come up with something new. It is usually hailed and promoted as a game-changer. The discoverer or inventor receives recognition or reward, and oftentimes people swear by this new invention. Very often, however, this new thing becomes old, stale, ordinary, in need of improvement or replacement. Let
Episode 33-2026 – Unchanged Realities in Changing Times
For the past two weeks, we have kept a focus on new things. The fact is, we are a people with a great fascination with the new. We have seen a wide range of developments in a number of areas for which we celebrate newness. Let us reflect on John's Gospel, chapter 3 and verses 1-8.
Reverend Rennard White is a retired Pastor and member of Tower Hill Missionary Church in Kingston, Jamaica. He is a
Episode 32-2026 – Unchanged Realities in Changing Times
As we continue our reflections, let us refer to St. Matthew's Gospel, chapter 4 and verses 12-17. When our Lord came to earth, He found a world in crisis. Mankind was in all sorts of difficulties. As it was then, so it is now. The scope of mankind's dilemma spawned the range of human experiences. In the midst of the fast-paced changes we face today, some realities remain the same.

Episode 31-2026 – Unchanged Realities in Changing Times
As the world moves at great speed, virtually reinventing itself at an accelerated pace, some things remain the same. These things constitute the basis for the church's ministry today. Human beings are lost. As the Bible says, this is mankind's greatest predicament. We stand under the judgment of a just God in our sin and rebellion. Let us look to Luke 13:1-9.
Reverend Rennard White is a retired
Episode 30-2026 – Christianity, A Distinct Identity
Thank you for joining us today for our final segment in our series on Christianity, A Distinct Identity. Over the past few weeks, we have journeyed through the first chapter of 1 Peter. We have discovered what it meant to live as set-apart people, to walk in holiness, and to love each other with a pure, fervent heart. Today we close the series by looking at the ultimate destination of our identity
Episode 29-2026 – Christianity, A Distinct Identity
Today, we continue our series on Christianity, A Distinct Identity. In our previous sessions, we discussed that God called us to be a set-apart people. Today we take the third part of our journey, "Obeying the Truth in Sincere Love". The ultimate evidence of that distinct identity is how we treat one another. Our passage today is 1 Peter 1:22-25

Episode 28-2026 – Christianity, A Distinct Identity

The Apostle Peter calls Christians to discipline their minds, abandon their former sinful desires, and model their behaviour after
Episode 27-2026 – Christianity, A Distinct Identity
Good morning, listeners. I greet you well in the precious Name of Jesus Christ. For July, I will be sharing a four-part series under the theme "Christianity - A Distinct Identity".
When people talk about Christianity having a distinct identity, they usually mean one of two things. Either how it stands completely apart from world religions, or how it completely rewrites a person's individual se
Episode 26-2026 – Meditations from John’s Gospel

Reverend Mark Dawes is the Pastor of Grace Missionary Church in Kingston, Jamaica.
Episode 24-2026 – Meditations from John’s Gospel
Good morning. We continue our series in John's gospel. In John chapter 9, verses 1-23, Jesus had healed a man born blind. He rejected the idea that sin caused the man's condition and declared that God's work would be displayed through this man, who could now see. The miracle sparked controversy. This morning, we will examine John 9:24-41.
Reverend Mark Dawes is the Pastor of Grace Missionary Ch
Episode 23-2026 – Meditations from John’s Gospel

Episode 19-2026 – Meditations from John’s Gospel
Good morning. As we continue the series of Meditations from the Gospel of John, we will place our focus on John 8:37-39. This is how it reads: “I know that you are Abraham’s descendants, but you seek to kill Me, because My word has no place in you. I speak what I have seen with My Father, and you do what you have seen with your father.” They answered and said to Him, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus
Episode 18-2026 – Meditations from John’s Gospel

Episode 17-2026: Jesus Heals a Centurion’s Servant
Today, we will look at a man who had extraordinary hope, faith and love. This story is about the Centurion, found in Matthew 8:5-10 and Luke 7:1-10. Both Gospels are written from different perspectives. This Centurion was a man of status and power and carried a great amount of authority.

Episode 16-2026: The Parable of The Ten Virgins
Good morning. Today, we share the well-known parable of the Ten Virgins found in Matthew 25:1-13. If we were to look at this parable through our Western eyes, we would probably struggle, as we are not used to a wedding ceremony or reception stretching for more than one day. However, there are at least four takeaways to share from this passage.

Episode 15-2026: Jesus Is Passing By
Good morning. Today, I want to speak to you on the topic "Jesus is Passing By". This story comes from Mark 10:46-52, Luke 18:35-43 and Matthew 20:29-34. Jesus was leaving Jericho with a large crowd following Him. From this story, my question to you is, have you heard about Jesus? Like blind Bartimaeus, you can cry out to Jesus.

Episode 14-2026: The Gift of God
Good morning. As we continue to celebrate and acknowledge the Lenten period and what it means to us, I want to reflect on Romans 5:12-19. We reflect on what Christ has done for you and me. He went to the cross of Calvary.
Paul, in his great theological treatise to the Romans, made a comparison between life and death. Paul stated that sin entered our existence through one man, Adam, and death c
Episode 13-2026: Hope in The Times of Crises
Good morning. Over the last couple of weeks, we have been briefly exploring the idea of Hope in Crises. We have said that hope is eagerly expecting something in the future, while crisis is our present reality, the situation we find ourselves in in the present moment. Do we have hope? Is there something better ahead of us?
The scripture is clear that Jesus Christ is indeed hope. Today, we examin
Episode 12-2026: Hope in The Times of Crises
Good morning. Today, we wish to speak about "The Crisis Within and The Hope of Victory". Does the believer, or Child of God, face crisis within? If so, how will this crisis be resolved? Is there hope for the struggler?
Reverend Ronald Webster is the Pastor of Hopewell Missionary Church in Hopewell, Hanover, Jamaica.
Episode 11-2026: Hope in The Times of Crises
Good morning. We began our study last week, exploring the subject of "Hope in Crises". Last week, we looked at the definition for Hope and how the Bible identifies the believers' hope as being "In Christ", not just in this world, but in and for the future. Today, we will explore "The Crisis in Creation" and the hope made available through Jesus Christ.
Reverend Ronald Webster is the Pastor of H
Episode 10-2026: Hope in The Times of Crises
Good morning. Our study this month covers the idea of "Hope in the Times of Crises". In this study, we will consider a definition and a biblical position on Hope. We will also consider a definition of crisis; an exploration of crisis in creation, and a biblical response; an exploration of crisis in general and a believer's response. We will end the series with an exploration of crisis within and a

Episode 06-2026: The Believers’ Waiting – Our Blessed Hope
It is a travesty to know that what the Lord has intended to serve as the believers' hope and comfort has become their despair and distress. Far too many believers do not read or study the teachings of the Second Advent of our Lord Jesus Christ. His Second Coming was always intended to bring joy and hope for Christians of all ages.
Good morning, everyone, and Maranatha. This series is titled "Jo
Episode 05-2026: The First Epistle of John
Good morning, listeners. Today, we conclude this short series exploring key themes in the Epistle of First John. In this episode, we examine the danger posed by love of the world.

Episode 04-2026: The First Epistle of John
Good morning, listeners. We are continuing the exploration of key themes in the Epistle of First John.

Episode 03-2026: The First Epistle of John
Good morning, listeners. In this series, we are exploring the Epistle of First John. Last week, we introduced you to First John as a family letter written by a concerned Pastor, and mentioned two of the purposes for which this Epistle was written.

Episode 01-2026: The First Epistle of John
Happy New Year. As people of faith, we have every right to express the customary New Year's greeting, even though we have just left behind what will undoubtedly go down in history as the most catastrophic year in Jamaica. This month, we will be sharing from the Epistle of John, particularly the first epistle.
Reverend Jacob McLean is the Pastor of Hampton Green Missionary Church in Kingston, J
Episode 52-2025: Spreading The Good News
This morning, let us consider our role in spreading and responding to the "Good News".

Episode 51-2025: The Birth of Jesus
Merry Christmas to you from Reverend Omar Morrison and his family, as well as from The Missionary Church Association in Jamaica.
Many persons still do not understand the significance of the birth of Jesus. For them, Christmas is about shopping, gifts, the bright lights, family, food, parties, and pleasure. Or perhaps some vacation time from working all year round. But Christmas is all about Jes
Episode 50-2025: The Birth of Jesus Foretold
So far, in our Advent reflections from the Gospel of Luke, we have seen that Zachariah and Elizabeth were righteous in God's sight, as noted in Luke 1:6. That beautiful description from God challenges us to make the pursuit of righteousness before God a central part of our lives in this Advent season.
Today, we will consider some important lessons from the birth of Jesus foretold in Luke 1:26-
Episode 49-2025: The Blessedness of Being Righteous Before God
What does it mean to be "Righteous"? Is being "Righteous" important to you? What does "Righteousness" have to do with Advent?
We will address these questions over the next few Sundays as we focus on the Advent Season, using Luke's Gospel message in sharing these reflections. Today, let us consider "The Blessedness of Being Righteous Before God" (Luke 1:5-25).
Reverend Omar Morrison is the Pa
