Called To Rescue: Beyond The Church Walls

Called To Rescue: Beyond The Church Walls

Features
“Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went.” - Acts 8:4 The call to evangelism is not reserved for pulpits and crusade grounds. Every believer carries the light of Christ into daily life whether in a shop, a classroom, a trotro, or on social media. Under the ‘Possessing the Nations’ agenda of The Church of Pentecost, God is calling His people to live as witnesses wherever they find themselves. Colossians 3:23 reminds us that “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord.” A Christian’s work ethic, honesty, and integrity can be the loudest sermon. In a society where corruption is common, a life of truth and godliness shines brightly. Before people will hear your gospel, they must first see your Jesus in you. Words also matter. 2 T...
The Titus Mantle: Pastoring Difficult Places

The Titus Mantle: Pastoring Difficult Places

Features
In the New Testament, Titus emerges as one of Paul’s most trusted companions – a man called to difficult assignments and relied upon for steadfastness, wisdom, and reform. When Paul left him on the island of Crete, it was not for an honorary role but for a daunting mission, “set in order what was lacking and appoint elders in every town” (Titus 1:5). Crete was notorious for immorality, false teaching, and disorganization. Paul himself quoted one of their own prophets, saying, “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons” (Titus 1:12). Yet it was into this setting that God’s servant was sent to restore order, rebuild leadership, and strengthen the Church. The assignment of Titus reminds us that God always raises men and women who will enter hard places and bring light, order, an...
When the Whole World Isn’t Enough

When the Whole World Isn’t Enough

Features
In Mark’s Gospel, Jesus poses a question that slices through every generation, “What can a man give in exchange for his soul?” It’s not just theological – it’s deeply personal, confronting us with the true worth of life and what we’re willing to sacrifice for it. Today, people chase pleasure, wealth, influence, prestige, and achievement. These pursuits often demand sacrifice, time, health, relationships, even moral integrity. But when the applause fades and the trophies gather dust, a quiet question lingers; Was it worth it? Jesus’ question implies a transaction, if you lose your life – your very soul – what could you give to buy it back? The answer is clear: nothing. Life, in this sense, is more than breath and heartbeat, it’s the eternal essence of a person. And once lost, it ca...
The Rise Of “Red”: Confronting Opioid Abuse Among Ghana’s Youth

The Rise Of “Red”: Confronting Opioid Abuse Among Ghana’s Youth

Features
“Do you know Red?” or in local parlance, “Wo nim Red?”. This chilling question has become a familiar slogan echoing in the streets of Ghana – from Tamale to Accra – as tramadol addiction sweeps through the youth like a storm. Illicit drug use is rapidly becoming one of the most alarming societal threats to contemporary African youth. Ghana, unfortunately, has not been spared. The increasing misuse of both legal and illegal substances – particularly opioids such as tramadol – is steadily tearing at the moral, social, and economic fabric of the nation. A Growing National Crisis Substance abuse among Ghana’s youth has reached worrying levels. According to global data, Ghana ranks first in Africa and third in the world for marijuana consumption and first in Africa and 14th worldwide f...
God’s Mercy After My Mistakes

God’s Mercy After My Mistakes

Features
Life doesn’t always unfold as we hope. We begin with pure intentions, commit ourselves to God, and strive to walk the right path. But somewhere along the way, mistakes happen—sometimes small, sometimes devastating. And when the dust settles, we stare at the fragments of our choices and ask, "Can God still use me?", "Is there still a future for me after what I’ve done?" King David’s life shouts the answer, Yes! God’s grace can bring hope after the mess. David’s beginnings were filled with faith and courage. A humble shepherd boy, he trusted God enough to face Goliath when no one else dared (1 Samuel 17). He was anointed by Samuel as the future king of Israel (1 Samuel 16), became a skilled musician, a fearless warrior, and a beloved leader. Most importantly, God Himself called him “a ...
Walking Every Step With the Holy Spirit

Walking Every Step With the Holy Spirit

Features
Living in fellowship with the Holy Spirit means more than occasional prayer or worship. It’s inviting God into every breath, thought, and choice – making Him the center of your everyday moments, not just your desperate ones. It’s an ongoing posture of surrender, a quiet but constant “yes” to His presence. Psalm 62:8 urges us: “Trust in Him at all times, you people; pour out your heart to Him, for God is our refuge.” This is not about duty – it’s about intimacy. Speak to Him as you would a trusted friend. Share the little things and the big things. In this closeness, He reveals the deeper things of His heart, drawing you into the glorious light of His calling. The Spirit longs to be your steady companion – guiding you with wisdom, strengthening you in weakness, and shaping you to refl...
The Hidden Impact Of Your Life

The Hidden Impact Of Your Life

Features
“The length of a tree is best known when the tree is down.”— African Proverb This profound truth reminds us that the full measure of a person’s life—their worth, their influence, their significance—is often only understood in hindsight. Many of us go through life making sacrifices, showing up faithfully, doing good, and hoping to see visible fruits of our labor. But the reality is, you may never really know the full impact of your actions—not in the present moment. There are people who are benefitting from your life without ever announcing it. Some observe you from afar, drawing strength and inspiration from the way you live, the choices you make, the resilience you show in adversity. Others are being changed by your words, your kindness, your prayers, and even your silence, though y...
The Battle Of The Mind

The Battle Of The Mind

Features
The mind is the intellectual and mental faculty of a person that feels, perceives, thinks, wills, and especially reasons. The mind alludes to a person's morality, reasoning, and understanding. In fact, the mind is not a physical organ that can be touched or seen. Our mind is intangible but responsible for abstract thought and emotion. That notwithstanding, the mind is the ruler and director of the body. What the mind reasons or thinks about is what the body reacts to. What we perceive in the mind is what we take into action and reality—if there’s no change of mind. Scripture confirms this by saying that “what we think about is who we really are.” Solomon said, what he thinks is what he really is (Proverbs 23:7 GNT). The thoughts and inclinations of the heart move into our minds and a...
A Noble Exit: Twenty-Five Gallant Soldiers Take Their Last Steps From The Pulpit

A Noble Exit: Twenty-Five Gallant Soldiers Take Their Last Steps From The Pulpit

Features
As the curtain falls on years of faithful service, twenty-five gallant soldiers of the Cross are set to lay down their pastoral duties on Sunday, July 27, 2025. These devoted ministers of The Church of Pentecost, having laboured tirelessly in the Lord’s vineyard, will retire from active service across various districts in Ghana, bringing to a close decades of selfless service and steadfast commitment to God and humanity. Their years of service range from 24 to a remarkable 35, bearing witness to their loyal devotion and obedience to their divine calling. At the heart of this sacred transition stands Pastor Johanes Koku Agoba of the Ashaiman Bethlehem District, whose 35-year journey of spiritual stewardship draws to a close. Alongside him, Pastor Godfred Kwadzo Okwan of Ngleshie-Amanf...
“When God Comes To Town” — A Pentecostal Paradigm For Multicultural Missions

“When God Comes To Town” — A Pentecostal Paradigm For Multicultural Missions

Features
INTRODUCTION The Church of Pentecost, a leading Pentecostal denomination in Ghana and beyond, with over 4 million membership worldwide, continues to seek innovative ways to engage the rapidly evolving demographic landscape of urban centres. Cities like Accra, Kumasi, and Takoradi have increasingly become melting pots of diverse cultures, languages, and nationalities. This diversity presents both a challenge and an opportunity for the church, particularly in terms of effective outreach and integration of expatriate communities into its fold. In recognition of this urgent need, the Home and Urban Missions, in collaboration with the Youth Ministry, Chaplaincy Ministry, and the Ministry to Celebrities, has organised the maiden Home Missions Conference scheduled for July 10-12, 2025, at t...
