“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6 (KJV)   Leadership actually starts in the home. We are all products of one family heritage or the other. Good family values actually give a child a good head start in life. A child who experiences love in the home is a lot more...

“Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.” Philippians 2:2 (KJV)   One of the things that we must imbibe and settle in our spirit man is that we are one family.

Some people out there admire the believers but would not join because...

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32 (KJV)                                                       A transformed life is not about do's and don'ts.
