GROW Model | Salvation: The Word of God: Can We Trust The Bible

It’s been translated, transcribed, transported, and yes — sometimes twisted. Some say the Bible is divinely preserved, others think it's been doctored for power. So who’s right? With thousands of translations and denominations interpreting it differently, how do we know we’re reading what God actually said?

GROW Model | Salvation: The Word of God

From dusty scrolls in ancient deserts to printed pages that sparked reformations, revolutions, and revivals — the Bible isn’t just a religious book. It’s been a blueprint for justice, a scapegoat for wars, and a cornerstone of law. But how did this ancient text come to wield such global influence?…

GROW Model | Salvation: What Must I Do To Be Saved?

This is the most important question any human being can ask: “What must I do to be saved?” It was asked by a desperate jailer in the middle of a dark night—and the answer was simple, yet life-altering. Salvation is not earned; it’s received. It’s a surrender of the soul,…

GROW Model | Salvation: The Thief on the Cross – A Last Minute Miracle

In his final moments, with a criminal record and a shattered life, the thief looked at Jesus and believed. That’s it. No altar call, no good deeds—just raw faith. And Jesus promised him paradise. This story breaks all our systems of merit. It shows us that the door of grace…

GROW Model | Salvation: Saved, But Still Struggling

You gave your heart to Christ—yet you still battle with sin, guilt, and old patterns. Does that mean salvation didn’t work? Absolutely not. Salvation is the start of a journey, not a finish line. God’s grace doesn’t just save you—it sustains you. The struggle is not a sign of failure;…

GROW Model | Salvation: The Cost of Grace

We say salvation is free—but it cost Heaven everything. Grace is not a cheap commodity. The nails, the crown of thorns, the weight of the world’s sin—it was all borne by One who had no sin, for those who couldn’t save themselves. The Cross is not just the beginning of…

GROW Model | Free Will: Is Free Will a Blessing or a Burden

Choice is empowering… until it’s paralysing. We live in an age of options—endless scrolling, infinite identities, constant indecision. Free will once felt like freedom. Now, it often feels like anxiety in disguise. Could it be that too many choices are actually robbing us of peace, purpose, and clarity?

GROW Model | Free Will: God, Sovereignty and the Scandal of Choice

Why would an all-knowing, all-loving God give us the ability to choose evil? Why would He allow betrayal, hatred, and destruction to grow in the soil of free will? It’s a divine scandal: God gives freedom, knowing it could—and would—break the world. Today we wrestle with the tension between a…
