Transformed Minds, Surrendered Lives
2026/08/14
Everyone lives by a worldview—a lens through which we interpret our purpose, morality, relationships, and ultimate truth. In this message, grounded in Romans 12:1–2, Rodgers Atwebembeire explores what shapes our perspective and what it truly means to adopt a biblical worldview. Starting with the foundation of God's unearned mercy, this teaching reveals how genuine faith transforms not only our hearts, but our minds, bodies, and daily conduct.
Anchored in Christ: Developing a Biblical Worldview
2026/08/06
In a world filled with competing ideologies, cultural trends, and conflicting messages, how do believers remain steadfast in their faith? Rodgers Atwebembeire explores what it truly means to develop and maintain a biblical worldview—one anchored entirely in the supremacy and sufficiency of Jesus Christ.
Key topics:
• What is a worldview? Understanding how invisible "lenses" shape our purpose, identity, and perspective on suffering.
• The danger of alternative ideologies: Recognizing subtle spiritual deceptions that affirm Jesus as "good," but deny Him as sufficient.
• Anchored in Scripture: What it means to walk in Christ—rooted, built up, and established in Christian truth.
• The supremacy of Christ: Reframing our lives around the truth that the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily in Jesus.
Do Not Believe Every Spirit! (1 John 4:1–6)
2026/05/19
"Every day, whether we realize it or not, we are buying into something. We ask important questions before we buy a appliance—so why do we close our brains when we walk into church?"
In a world full of conflicting messages, dreams, visions, and prophetic claims, how can you tell the difference between truth and error? In this powerful message, Rodgers Atwebembeire gives us three core areas to analyze any preacher or message: The Command, The Confession, and The Contrast. Watch and learn how to stand firm in “the faith once for all delivered to the saints” (Jude 3–4).
It could change your life.
Is Jesus Enough?
2026/04/28
“Jesus is important—but He’s not enough.” This was the lie threatening the church in Colossae, and it’s the same lie we hear today. Whether through cult groups, philosophy, religious regulations, or "self-centered spirituality," the world constantly tries to diminish the sufficiency of Christ.
Join Danson Ottawa as we dive into Colossians 1 and see why Jesus doesn't just inspire us—He commands and reconciles us. He is the image of the invisible God, the head of the church, and the ruler of all creation. If He can hold the galaxies together, He can certainly hold your life together!
Recorded on 19th April at the Technical University of Kenya Christian Union.
REMEMBERING KANUNGU: A National Declaration
2026/03/12
March 17, 2026 marks 26 years since the Kanungu tragedy, in which over 500 cult followers were burned to death and nearly a thousand lives were lost overall. We also remember the recent cult disaster in Shakahola, where hundreds more perished in yet another cruel abuse of religion.
In this this National Declaration, Rodgers Atwebembeire of ACFAR calls the church in Uganda and across East Africa to repent of its negligence, to strengthen its discipleship, to ground believers in sound doctrine, and to test all supernatural claims by Scripture. May God help us to become a faithful people who are discerning, courageous, and firmly centred on Christ. “And you therefore, beloved… be on your guard…” (2 Peter 3:17–18)

Jesus—the Great “I AM”
2025/06/10
In John 8:58, Jesus boldly declared: “Truly I tell you, before Abraham was, I AM!” What did He mean? The Jews immediately understood Him—and tried to kill Him! Rodgers Atwebembeire explains the awesome truth behind Jesus’ statement.

2025/04/23
How is it possible to fulfill Jesus’ “Great Commission” to make disciples of all nations in today’s multi-cultural world?

The Apostle Paul is our faithful guide and example in this task, as Rodgers Atwebembeire explains from Acts 17.
The Impact of False Doctrines
2025/04/23
Why would God give us the law if it’s not required for us to be saved? Answer: Instead of being a means for salvation, the law points us to the need for salvation—and the promise of salvation through Christ Jesus. ACFAR director Rodgers Atwebembeire explains from Galatians 3, helping us recognize how false teachers confuse—and exploit—this issue.
