As I was leaving service year, I already knew that I was heading to Eruwa for ministry. I sat down and documented what I perceived to be my next season. It was titled, “Life After Service Year: Embracing the Call and Pursuing Purpose”. I sent it to my mentors. There was a beloved aunt who said to me, “Temi, you […]
She was quite restless. I had to call her after one Sunday service. I asked why she was quite unstable in church. She gave her reasons, which included the preparation for her wedding. I encouraged her to be at rest. I also challenged her to attend the conference we had that week. She obliged. One of the speakers was a […]
They hated the way they were being treated. They had invested a lot of time and life into that organization. They felt like exiting in the midst of all the lies and schemes. They were offended.

I still remember where I was standing when I got the call:“So when you have children, how will you afford to buy diapers for them?” Other questions in that format kept pouring in. I had no answers.

The new student chose a company that day that wrecked […]
Two of my dear sons in the faith got admission into the University. They came to ask me a very beautiful question, “Sir, what would you do differently if you were to go to the university now? What is your counsel to us?” I gave my counsel to them. They both finished with good grades. They were both spiritually grounded […]
Irewamiri stepped out. Danielle stepped out, also. Olive began to look around and wanted to cry. She did not know I was right behind her. I picked up her toy, got her attention and said to her, “You are not alone. I am here with you”. She beamed a smile and continued playing. I believe the Lord is asking me […]
He had spent some of his teenage years living in a Pastor’s house. He felt he was being choked. Once he got the freedom to step out to school, he slid into sex and drugs. He was getting into gambling. He had seen one of the popular foreign musicians as a role model. He wanted to look like him, no […]
Danielle has a pattern where she wakes up very early. There are times when she wakes up when she hears us praying. This day, when Irewamiri saw the look on her face, she was prompted to ask whether Danielle would still love to sleep. Her response shook both of us: “Why should I be sleeping in the morning?” First, it […]
