WHO WILL PASTOR THE CHURCH?

Some few months into the launch of the work of ministry in Eruwa, a very close friend of mine sent me an application for a Youth Development Programme in the United States. It was to run for some months. I appreciated the kind gesture but I was forced to ask, “Who will pastor the church when I am away?” We […]

WE KNOW YOU WOULD NOT EAT MUCH

As we got into the hotel and I settled in. The host minister said to me, “Please, order for anything that you would desire to eat. We have paid in advance already”. I nodded in understanding. He then added, “Pastor Temi, I know you. You are not a heavy eater. You will surely leave us a lot of change in […]

I KNEW YOU WERE PRINCIPLED

I was billed to minister in a city outside my base. They asked me a couple of questions and I kindly requested that no matter the arrangement been made, I would have a minister with me at all times. There would never be a time that I would be alone. Weeks after the meeting, a pastor in the church told […]

HOW TO KEEP YOURSELF FROM FALLING

I did about eight months in a State University and I knew that every seed that my parents planted in me as regards the fear of the Lord was under intense attack. I was surrounded by various vices that could derail a teenager leaving home for the first time. In those eight months, I had the opportunity to drink alcohol, […]

DO YOU WEAR CLOTHES TO CLASS?

Years ago, I walked up to my pastor after service to exchange greetings with him. At that same moment, a young girl also walked up to him. Pastor did not blink an eye at what she wore. I was already a bit shocked. The pastor said to her, “I heard you have gained admission into the University now”. She replied […]

MY PHONE COULD NOT STAY SILENT

I had sent a text message to a very important personality- a father in the faith. I knew he would either call back or send a message in return. My phone would most times be placed on silent mode. However, because I did not want to miss his response or his call, I increased the volume on my phone so […]

THE POWERLESS ELECTRIC CABLE

We were heading to the airport in a city in the South-South when Irewamiri pointed out an interesting scene- there were clothes spread out to dry on an electric cable. These were high capacity power cables. When I saw it, I said to her, “Definitely, there is no life or power in that cable. If there is power in that […]

THE DAY THE GENERATOR REFUSED TO START

The generator at home began to show interesting signs- it became so hard to pull. It respects only the man of the house. It also began to consume oil aggressively. We have to constantly refill the oil so we can get it running. One evening, it refused to come on despite all the aggressive pull. It struck me and I […]

“WHEN WILL I STOP SPEAKING TO TEENAGERS?”

I have been speaking to teenagers for the past fourteen years. This year when invitations to speak to Teenagers began to come, I was wondering when I would outgrow speaking to teenagers. Then the Holy Spirit reminded me of a real-life story: An old preacher returned from a preaching engagement and his friend asked him how things went. The preacher […]
