Developing a Winning Edge: 7 Key Essential Skills for Workplace Success

Developing a Winning Edge: 7 Key Essential Skills for Workplace Success

Features
Success in the workplace is often determined by a combination of technical expertise, soft skills, and continuous learning. Developing these skills not only enhances career growth but also fosters a more efficient and collaborative work environment. As Proverbs 22:29 states, "Do you see a man skillful in his work? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before obscure men." This verse underscores the importance of diligence and excellence in one’s professional journey. We also learn from Colossians 3:23-24 – “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.” This passage reminds us that our ultimate boss is God, and we should approach work with passion an...
Betting And Its Toll On Young Lives: Christian Views And Responses

Betting And Its Toll On Young Lives: Christian Views And Responses

Features
Introduction  While the Bible does not explicitly condemn gambling or betting, it emphasises the dangers of greed, the importance of hard work, and the need to avoid "get-rich-quick" schemes, which are often associated with gambling. The Bible promotes the value of hard work and earning a living through honest labour, rather than relying on luck or chance. It cautions against the love of money and the pursuit of wealth through questionable means. The Youth and Betting  Recently, gambling among Ghanaian youth has seen a marked increase. Studies have reported a prevalence of at least 30% of gambling among children and adolescents, including sports betting, lottery, and casino gambling. This surge in youth participation in gambling is gradually leading to many social vices ...

Doing Evil Innocently, But With A Clear Conscience

Doing Evil Innocently, But With A Clear Conscience

Features
“My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me” – (1 Cor. 4:4, NIV) Conscience is subjective. Sometimes, a person’s conscience may be clear, but this does not mean that the person is innocent (Apostle Eric Nyamekye). People can commit unethical or harmful acts without malicious intent or awareness that their actions are wrong. They genuinely believe their actions are justified, even though they are objectively causing harm. This article explores this oxymoron of life using biblical illustrations. What is Evil? Evil is generally seen as immorality, wickedness, and actions that cause harm or undermine the moral foundations of the world. The concept is broadly categorized as either natural evil or moral evil (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philoso...

Don’t Change The Great Commission To Great Omission – Children’s Director Tells Church Leaders

Don’t Change The Great Commission To Great Omission – Children’s Director Tells Church Leaders

Features
The Director of the Children's Ministry of The Church of Pentecost, Pastor Samuel Avornyo, has urged church leaders not to change the Great Commission to a Great Omission. Pastor Avornyo said this when addressing ministers, children workers, officers, and parents in the Abirem Agona Zone on Thursday, March 13, 2025, during his ‘Vision Casting Visit’ to the Elmina Area of the church. The Children's Director emphasized that any soul-winning effort that neglects children as a target for evangelism or as a medium through which God can win other souls becomes a Great Omission rather than the Great Commission. ‘For me, the letter 'C' in the Great Commission represents Children. Children have souls that need to be won. They must not be ignored while they are young. The gospel is about th...

Reclaiming Parental Responsibility: The Power Of The Win, Wean, And Unleash Agenda

Features
In today's world, many parents have shifted the responsibility of nurturing and training their children to school teachers and Children’s Ministry teachers. While these educators play a vital role in shaping young minds, parental involvement is crucial in helping children become who God has called them to be. Unfortunately, some parents blame school teachers and Children’s Ministry teachers for not disciplining or teaching their children effectively, rather than taking ownership of their role. A Disturbing Encounter I attended a funeral recently in a prominent town in the Volta Region of Ghana. During my visit, I met some children aged 8-13 and engaged in a game of football with them. As we prepared to leave, I asked if they attended church that Sunday. Shockingly, about 70% of the c...
Glaucoma, The Silent Thief Of Sight

Glaucoma, The Silent Thief Of Sight

Features
The eye is one of the most important organs of the human system. It gives light to the body. Almost all human activities depend on one’s ability to see. A person’s life patterns, goals and aspirations would be greatly interrupted if there were no eyes. Despite the great importance of the eye to life, it is a very delicate organ hence the need to pay critical attention to it. Just as other parts of the body are prone to diseases and disorders, the eye is not exempted. Due to its delicate nature, one’s inability to pay attention to it usually results in worst situations such as blindness. In this article, I will discuss and campaign about Glaucoma, nicknamed the silent thief of sight. The World Health Organization has designated March 9th to 15th   as World Glaucoma Week. The focus...

Features
Main Texts: Revelation 5:10, Ephesians 4:1, 2 Kings 7:3-11, Acts 1:8 “And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth." (Rev. 5:10 KJV) A people chosen by God and made Kings and Priests, predestined to reign and rule the world in the worthiness of their calling, spreading kingdom principles and values. The power given to the church by the Holy Spirit comes with responsibilities. This power must be released to dispel physical and spiritual forces that seek to derail the church's efforts. The power in the believer, if activated properly, can transform nations and restore godly living. Acts 1:8 says, "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and S...
