Irewamiri and I were having a conversation. She just mentioned how we had nothing in our living room when we got married. Our seats were improvised- we used to sit on those yellow twenty-five-litre jerry cans. I still remember our first set of upholstery. Do you know that after getting comfortable and setting up our first home, God still instructed […]
Some years ago, we were to host a leadership conference. Aside from myself, we had plans to host about seven other speakers (I am not sure I will do that again). About a week before the meeting, it became clear that it would be dishonourable to bring speakers without the required financial pool to take care of at least their […]
It was the last Saturday of January in 2007. I was visiting with my aunt. She said to me, “Temi, there is a ten-minute session in teens church called ‘tits and bits’. We would be glad if you could share for ten minutes tomorrow”. I agreed. I stayed in the place of prayer. I shared that Sunday on “The Story […]
I once had a colleague while on a course. She happened to be a daughter of missionaries. We started a conversation one day about her journey. She said to me, “My parents have done so much in missions that my own intent is to make money”. I heard what she had not even said. Our stewards in the ministry gave […]
During our building project, I remember the morning we needed eight hundred thousand naira. At midnight, while I danced and gave God praise, someone I had known since 2004 sent half a million as a seed for the project. I was really grateful. While on-site the day the money was required, I was thanking God when a dear sister sent […]
A dear brother shared a ministry training material with me when I needed help developing a similar one. A few months later, I was in a meeting where another minister requested the material after spotting it on me. I sent it to him. I felt I did the wrong thing. I should have asked the owner of the document for […]
When I saw her writing on the wall with a crayon, I paused what I was doing and said to the beloved three-year-old, “You don’t write on the wall. You can write on paper”. She squeezed her face in protest. I was shocked. She then told me, “I will write on the wall”. When I saw she was insistent, I […]
I was in a meeting many years ago where a minister of the gospel who had been in the ministry for decades shared. He spoke about how the Lord taught him a major life lesson that brought a shift into his life and ministry. I decided to practice what he mentioned. I also saw the difference in my life. I […]
As we left the home of our beloved grandparents in the faith, my fiance (now my beloved wife) said that she had to answer a simple yet important question while she chatted in the kitchen with Grandma. Out of the blue, it came like a sharp sword: “Has he slept with you?” Irewamiri responded in the negative. Grandma said, “Tell […]
I had an appointment to keep with my grandfather in the faith. It was the early days of ministry and one of my leaders in the ministry went with me. When he arrived, he met us at the lobby of the ministry secretariat. He beckoned, and we walked all the way to his office on the last floor. The young […]
