One day, the beloved one who manages one of my handles reached out saying that I was being attacked online after they posted the devotionals. The trolls were coming hard. Out of concern, she asked, “Pastor, should I pull down the post?” I had a good laugh and said to her, “Is that post the truth of God’s Word?” She […]
We were ministering in the South-South of our nation. I travelled with my entire family for the meeting. It was a great time out for the young ones. During the day, while we prepared for the meeting, the church had a team that picked up the girls and took them out for sightseeing, colouring and other fun yet edifying activities. […]
I taught the church a simple lesson in the early days of ministry. It was our midweek service. I asked the church to go round and check up on themselves to ask the simple question, “How are you?” They went around exchanging pleasantries and encouraging smiles. I realized that no one walked towards me to say a word. I smiled […]
Some years ago, I would wake up to study and would be sighing at intervals. I would walk out into the night and begin praying for specific people I had the privilege to pastor. I had people in the church who were not growing. It was a tough one, having to address the same issues repeatedly. Today, when I see […]

As the readership of the devotional writing began to increase in the early days of writing, I made a shocking discovery – I was under the burden of performance. Even when I did not have my devotion, I was still struggling to write so that people could read. When I realized, I would release a note that I was taking […]
When a dear one mentioned that he wanted to resign to launch into entrepreneurship. I wanted to ask one or two questions. I asked whether he already has mastered the business end of his current employment. Is he still thinking like an employee or he is now thinking like a business owner? Do you just see how your salary is […]
A dear sister mentioned that she noticed a man in church had developed a habit of walking up to her after service to commend her appearance. When she noticed that it had become a pattern, she came up with a plan. The next time he showed up, rather than acknowledge his greetings, she walked him to his own wife and […]
We were house hunting a while back. We saw a house that fit our desires. We spoke with the agent in charge of the house. He contacted the Landlord, and we fixed a time to inspect the house. We took a trip to meet up with the appointment. The agent had spoken to the landlord. He still spoke to him […]
