HERE IS HOW TO BUILD A SUCCESSFUL MARRIAGE

I grew up using the New General Mathematics textbook. One of the things about holidays was the pages of mathematical sums we would get to solve. I had a childhood friend whose parents got an extra-lesson teacher for on both Mathematics and Further Mathematics. We often get to read together in his Dad’s hospital.  Often, he would take through the […]

DEAR HUSBAND, SAVE YOUR MARRIAGE!

Just a few years after marriage, he took an interest in helping out a particular young lady. What started as a counselling session to help a young girl genuinely was already sliding into a wall between his wife and himself. To make matters worse, it seems as though he was not even sensitive enough.  He started giving his wife one-word […]

DEAR HUSBAND, EMBRACE HUMILITY AND SECURE YOUR MARRIAGE

We were going through an interesting season as a couple- our little savings could not fix the problem on ground. In the middle of the crisis one morning, I woke up to a lengthy memo from Irewamiri. She suggested a move that negated one of our core values and principles as a family.  Dear husband, needs can push a family […]

As our vision for life began to unfold, it was obvious that our trajectories were different.  The clarity for this came years (after I met my wife) when my grandfather […]

YOUR SPOUSE IS NOT YOUR COMPETITION 

It happened around Yaba in Lagos State. It was still a bit early in the morning. We parked, waiting to connect with someone. Then we saw the most unusual scene- it has not left my mind since then.  We saw a man and a woman who wore the same attire drive by in a car at speed. The unusual thing […]

Build Deep-Spirited Friendship in Marriage

I proposed to Irewamiri while I was also her pastor. When she eventually said ‘Yes,’ I felt I had a huge responsibility to see her grow and become that “ministry material.” In the first few days of courtship, I began to load her with Kenneth E. Hagin’s study manuals. Our meetings were like that of a student and her teacher. […]

“WHEN I HAVE A DREAM IT ALWAYS COMES TO PASS”

I was driving in town one day when a brother, who is also a minister, saw me and mentioned that he would love to see me. When I saw my Dad later that day, he also said that the same person had told him that he had a dream about the two of us that he wanted to share. I […]
