While growing up, we had a neighbour who loved dogs. Their dogs became the neighbourhood dogs- it was everyone’s pet. We had Jack, and we had Jill. Jack had an amazing pattern. A few minutes to 4 pm every weekday, Jack would come to our door and wait- that was the hour my mum would leave for the church to […]
We had many memories as children. We were the outdoor generation- no phones, TV stations broadcast from 4 p.m., board games needed a playing mate! It was the “go out and play.” I rolled tyres. I participated in high jump with branches from shrubs around us. One of the things we did with soft sand was to build “birdhouses.” Our […]
I was visiting with a young lady I just met. We both had a mutual friend. Of the neighbourhood’s scarcity of friends, finding someone to interact with was a solace. One such evening, she received a call from whom I later got to know as her boyfriend. It was an uncomfortable call. She burst into tears right afterward. By impulse, […]
While teaching a class of young converts someday, I walked up to the first person and pinched him. He responded as he felt it. I went to another person who now knew what I wanted to do and pretended like he would not respond, but he did. Then I asked them, “What if I pinched a dead man? Would he […]
A young man walked up to my friend once after he had given his life to Christ and said to him: “I did quite some terrible things in my life. The one I cannot forget is about a lady who laid curses on me after the way and manner I treated her. She said I would not prosper or make […]
As that priceless soul sat before me that day, I heard those words: “Sir, I feel nothing. I have done many things wrong in my life”. From getting sexually involved with close relatives to having an abortion. She had been through all. I began to talk to her about God’s love, emphasizing that in Christ, her past is thrown into […]
One morning, I woke up to an old song that lighted up my spirit: Take me deeper Deeper in love with you Jesus hold me close in your embrace Take me deeper Deeper than I have ever been before I just want to love you more and more How I love to be deeper in love. As I meditated on […]
Some years ago, I was witnessing to a colleague inside a restaurant. After I shared the gospel with him and asked if he would surrender his life to Christ, he threw a subtle punch at me, “Pastor, have you kissed before?” I said, “Yes, but I would not do it again till I am married.” Beloved, every Saint has a […]
A dear son placed an image on social media, and his friend responded with words that gave glory to God and turned a drug addict into a Christ lover. His story still delights me each time I think about it. He was coming to church, but he was still struggling with addiction. He would leave the church to smoke his […]
I was born into a Christian Family. My mum was the evangelism coordinator of the church we attended. Dad served in the church also. Mum had a 4 p.m. hour of prayer at the Upper Room almost daily. I witnessed impartation and deliverance. She jokingly said once that someone informed her to stop conducting deliverance during my pregnancy so that […]
