FRUITFULNESS
This month, we turn our attention to Fruitfulness. Growth is not the end goal; it leads to producing fruit that blesses others and brings glory to God. Just as a healthy tree naturally bears fruit, a life rooted in Christ overflows with love, joy, and good works.
John 15:5
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain…

Spiritual GROWTH
"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." — 2 Peter 3:18
Spiritual growth is more than a goal, it’s a journey. As Christians, our call is to become more deeply rooted in Christ and reflect His character in our everyday lives. This growth often described in Scripture as sanctification is not…
IN- Persevering Hope
The Bible reminds us that we are like jars of clay, fragile vessels that carry the priceless treasure of the gospel (2 Corinthians 4:7). Our cracks don’t disqualify us—they reveal the power of the God who lives in us.
Building on this truth, this month’s devotionals invite you into stories of restoration, redemption, and deep faith forged in difficulty. They remind…
IN- Hope:Discovering the One True Source
Even the most dedicated follower of Christ is likely to experience moments or seasons of hopelessness. No less a figure than the apostle Paul wrote about being burdened to the point of despairing even of life itself (2 Corinthians 1:8). Yet Paul explained that this happened for a good purpose—so that he would learn to rely on God rather than…
IN - Anchored in hope
In the year 2011, a magnitude 9 earthquake and a resulting tsunami took nearly 19,000 lives and destroyed 230,000 homes in the region northeast of Tokyo. In its aftermath, 'The Nozomi Project', named for the Japanese word for “hope,” was born to provide sustainable income, community, dignity, and hope in a God who provides.
Nozomi women sift through the rubble of…

Persevering Hope
Holding On to God’s Promises Through Every Season
Hope is a powerful force. It keeps us going when everything around us feels like it's falling apart. But what about the hard seasons—when prayers feel unanswered, days drag on in silence, and we don’t know what’s next? That’s when we need persevering hope—a steady trust in God’s character, not our…
IN-Being Doers Of The Word
Jesus never forces us to follow Him. He invites it—always preceded by a gracious “If.” Luke 9:23 records Him saying, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross daily, and follow me.” The cross here is not a burden because picking it up is a voluntary action. Indeed, Jesus…
IN- Obedience- Being Doers of the Word
Obedience isn’t just about following rules —it’s about responding to God’s love with trust and action. When we live as doers of the Word, we put our faith into motion. James 1:22 calls us not just to hear God’s Word but to live it out — in our relationships, decisions, and daily habits.
“Do not merely listen to the word and so…
On 15th August, we celebrate India’s independence from British rule. To many people “independence” is synonymous with “freedom” and the people who worked hard to make it possible are “freedom fighters”.
However, most of us know that 78 years after independence, many people in the country need freedom from various forms of oppression. Poverty, discrimination and biases based on colour, caste and economic…
IN- 3 MYTHS ABOUT FREEDOM
I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will – Charlotte Bronte
Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? (Matthew 6:26)
W hat is freedom? The…

IN- Words Matter- Speaking to Encourage
A braham Lincoln consistently tops the polls as the most popular U.S. president of all time. That would probably shock him, since he was also the most embattled U.S. president of all time, presiding over a nation that was literally at war with itself. His troubled presidency came on top of a lifelong struggle with depression so severe that he suffered at…
IN- Words Matter- Speaking to Bless
I was scrolling through Facebook and saw an article about a high-profile pastor who had been caught in sin. What grabbed my attention wasn’t the subject, but the author’s absolute glee at this man’s downfall—and the author was another Christian leader! The disgraced pastor belonged to a faction of Christianity that had been riddled with accusations of abuse and misuse of power,…
IN- Words Matter- Speaking with Integrity
I ’ve always felt an affinity for Timothy, the apostle Paul’s young protégé. Timothy was an important figure in the early church, accompanying Paul on his missionary journeys, co-authoring six of the Epistles, pastoring the notoriously challenging church in Ephesus, the ancient epicentre of goddess worship, and functioning as Paul’s ambassador when stuff needed to get done, and get done right. Paul…
