Pastoral Stories

Liam couldn't really know what a boat looked like. When imagining the tales of Gráinne Mhaol, Pirate Queen, he only had father's vague descriptions to go off. But he was determined to see that vast expanse of water heaving with wooden vessels for himself someday, even if he had to wait for years until he was quite grown up. That time would come sooner than he expected.

This is a poem that depicts human addiction and how We sin multiple times against my Creator,our Supreme being.

Ministry. Calling. Pastoral. One of the misconceptions of the world and even me is that when God called you, you should go to Church. So for years, I served God in sharing the gospel at the church and giving gospel tracts at the small community. I continuously did it as my routine until I was brought to a different place by one incident. One day when I woke up I felt there was a sudden change inside of me. I proved it when I was sharing the gospel, everyone around me thought that I am not in the right mind. They all thought I had a disorder. One by one all the people around me turned their backs and I was brought to the mental hospital. I felt the darkness and I even questioned my faith. Is it true or not? I also felt like there is no God . Until one day he called me. It was a whisper but I felt something inside me burning. I did not feel it when I thought I called to go to the Ministry. He wants me to continue sharing the gospel in this institution. I followed Him for years until it was the time I was released. But my calling does not stop and I go to a different institution to do what I was called. I am David and this is my calling.

Have you ever wondered why some bad incidents happened to a believer you know? Well, this story is just so enlightening and it answers it all STORY TITLE: RARE CASES.

Niles, not only shares her personal story about spiritual abuse but also inspires and informs those that have been or could be going through similar experiences or who just want to become more aware of this topic.

Niles also speaks about what a real relationship with God should look like and reminds readers that as believers "we have been released from the law, [because we] have died [to that] by which we were bound, so that we may serve in newness of the Spirit and not in oldness of the letter [of the law]." Romans 7:6
