When it comes to decision making, you might’ve had someone tell you: “Be prudent!” 🫨 …But what exactly does that mean? 🤔 And how do we know if we’re making prudent choices? In this first addition of our ‘Living in Virtue’ series, Sharon unpacks what it means to exercise prudence, the “charioteer of the virtues”, in daily life. For it isn’t just about making ‘right’ decisions, but recognising the true good that God calls us to in every circumstance! ✨🙏 Read her full article here ‼️ ✍️

Joshua thought he already knew God. He grew up as a Protestant Christian, served faithfully, and sincerely wanted to follow Christ. Yet beneath it all, questions lingered. Why were there so many denominations? What was the true Church? Here’s his story of how small acts of obedience led him to discover that God was guiding him all along, even when he couldn’t yet see where the journey would end. 💌 If you’ve been searching, wrestling with questions, or wondering where God is leading you, you’re not alone. Sometimes, encountering God isn’t about having every answer but about saying yes to the next small step of obedience when He invites. Come and see!❤️‍🔥 Our next RCIY run begins Sunday, 2 Aug 2026, for those aged 19 to 30 years old. Sign up here: tinyurl.com/oyprciy26 🌅 Designed by Khok Yee Sim
