3 Simple Checks For A Healthy Heart This Week
When you realise that God sets our lives right by setting our hearts right, then you realize just how important it is to have a right and healthy heart.

Day 5 – This, That- Life On Your Toes
Bible Reading – James 5 It’s the audacity for me. I’m midway through a gym session, catching heavy breaths and struggling to ascertain whether this body is still my own, and then this gym instructor comes and boldly calls out a next set of five things to do. What’s interesting though is how these new five very different things- each focused on a different set of muscles in the body- are combined into one set. Here I am doing this,…

The expectation was that students shouldn’t just know, they should do. And that’s exactly where the problem lay for some students- they would score so well in the theory, but would fail the practicals.
