He came into Eruwa with just one plan- enjoy his life to the fullest in service year. He has already had his portion of a fun life while waiting for service year. His plans were going well until he walked into Night of David. A word came forth- “You are the son of a pastor, and you made up your […]
Every time I look at this beloved one of the Lord, there is an aura of grace and unction that is no longer there. It was a gradual fading away and before long, it was obvious that something was amiss. The missing aura began to reflect in the appearance- a little show of what should be covered! Some grounds had […]
Irewamiri and I struggled for a long time to find that unforced rhythm of cooperation in some areas of our lives, especially when it comes to ministry. I remember episodes where she would say, “Darling, please kindly take on the work of ministry. It seems to be causing quite some disagreements”. It was a touchy area. As much as we […]
We were having a heart-to-heart conversation recently. Irewamiri mentioned that in the early days of marriage whenever she mentioned anything about her dreams, I would make a sound and then grow quiet. I never knew I was behaving that way. She said, “I thought I was over-ambitious”. She began to tone down on her dreams and conversations about them until […]
I learnt this from my pastor during my service year. He shared a story with us one day: He travelled out of town and on his way home, he saw a lovely car. When he got back home, he told his wife, “I will buy you a car”. The wife, knowing their financial state and her husband very well, looked […]
By the time she was trying to find help, the matter had gone really bad. He would gamble with his entire salary, her own money, and their family savings. It was taking a toll on the family’s finance and their intimacy. It started with just a little trial with “an insignificant amount”. Before the emotions of “I am in love” […]
I remember the story of a woman in labour. Her husband was not around. All she did was lay curses on the man. It was a painful sight to behold. The only time she stopped was when the Matron gave her a firm ‘friendly’ response. I could not but wonder the bitterness that had accrued in her mind towards her […]
A dear sister suffered heartbreak and found solace in the hands of a childhood friend who had been asking her out. She did not heal before committing to a new relationship. One day, she had a reason to visit her boyfriend – he was ‘sick’. She broke all her rules that day. She drank alcohol for the first time in […]
Some years ago, as we prepared for Sunday Service, I gave Irewamiri some money and I said, “Darling, this is all I have left aside our offering for today. Please, use this token to buy some things we may need”. Her response still rings a bell in me to date. She looked at me and said, “You are a blessed […]
During our courtship, I visited a dear father in the faith, and he asked an interesting question: “Have you ‘fought’ with Oyeronke before?” I responded in the negative. He smiled and told me his story: He agreed to everything his wife said in courtship. In the early days of marriage, he had reasons to tell her, “No, you cannot do […]
