“Father, Into Thy hands I commend my spirit” “Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep; If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take.” Do you remember your childhood and praying those words before you went to sleep? Hebrew children were [...]

“It Is Finished” In his now famous speech, “Yes We Can” Senator (now President) Barach Obama spoke these words…”We are hungry for change and we are ready to believe again.” In November 2008 that hunger for change and desire to believe in something greater saw the United States of America elect its first African American [...]

After this, when Jesus knew that all was now finished, he said (in order to fulfill the scripture), “I am thirsty.” A jar full of sour wine was standing there. So they put a sponge full of the wine on a branch of hyssop and held it to his mouth. John 19:28-29 (NRSV) Surely the [...]

“My God, My God, why have You forsaken me?” It was the most gut-wrenching cry of loneliness in history, and it came not from a prisoner or a widow or a patient – it came from a hill, from a cross, from a Messiah. In Matthew 27:45-46 we read “Now from the sixth hour darkness [...]

“He replied, ‘Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise’.” (Luke 23:43) Paradise! I’m not sure what kind of images are evoked by this word for you, but the biblical world helps us. Genesis sets humanity in a garden, and John of Patmos refers to it as “the paradise of God” [...]

Our North American culture has experienced a desire to better understand the sordid, and complex history that was the African transatlantic slave trade. Robert Jeffery offers the Wesleyan Perspective on slavery and helps us work through this critical issue.
Praying Scripture – Micah 6:8-10
He has shown you,
O mortal, what is good.
And what does the LORD require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.
Living Scripture - Psalm 25:3
No one who hopes in you
will ever be put to shame.
CFOT was pleased to welcome special guests Colonels Floyd and Tracey Tidd to our In Sunday on January 22, 2012.
The focus of their message was “Hope” and cadets and officers shared stories of life situations that may have seemed hopeless but which eventually brought them to know hope.
This In Sunday was also blessed by the attendance of our Field Based Training cadets – Peck-Ee Wong and Leonard Heng, and Kim and Darryl Burry (and their family).
