Logos for June 27, 2020--The Power of Prayer. I have often wondered about the significance of prayer and I have wrestled in my mind if prayer has any power. No doubt growing up in a Christian home and in a country that claims Christianity, as its main religion, I have heard Christian leaders espouse the idea that prayer has power. More so, recently I decided to see what the Bible has to say on the matter of prayer and to investigate this as a means of bringing clarity to my mind.Here are a few passages that I discovered and would like to share with you:

Logos for June 20, 2020--Pastoral Self-Care In Isolating Times. Congregational care during this coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic is essential, however, traditional congregational care is, at best, now very strained. Ministry is quite different than it was a few weeks ago. We cannot meet or gather as congregations. Caregiving for bereaving families unable to attend funeral services, members who may not be digitally connected, and those losing employment while working from home are just some examples of how ministry has shifted.

Logos for June 13, 2020--A Message of Hope for God's People. For the past two weeks there has been an array of viewpoints, raw outrage, and a cry for leadership in the United States of America as the entire globe demands justice for the death of Mr. George Floyd. Thanks to the telephone camera of Ms. Daniella Fraser, millions of people watched in horror as George (a black man) lay on his stomach on the ground handcuffed; while Mr. Derek Chauvin (a white Police Officer) had his knee on Floyd’s neck for more than eight minutes.

Logos for June 6, 2020--Only Connection With God Can Overcome Global Rise In Evil. During these past weeks, we have had such unusual situations around the world. The COVID-19 pandemic has destroyed many lives and disrupted daily life worldwide as we know it. Violence and hatred continue to exhibit themselves in unconverted hearts as evidenced by devastating bombings in places like Afghanistan. Oppression and lack of religious liberty are demonstrated in many places, including Burundi.
