I hated it whenever Dad calls me at night to pick up his Panasonic Radio in his room. The dark corridor between the living room and his room was always a place of dread for me. It became worse when a brother closed to our family died. I would imagine that ghosts would just emerge from the walls and appear […]
A couple of years ago while we were still kids, there was a very tough season in the country- people used saw-dust to cook. It was a season of dire needs. Families went through huge hardship. In our home, things were not too different. There were no pieces of meat on our meal. Mum came up with a plan- she […]
Danielle came back from school saying that there was another girl in her class who was regularly making “curse” signs at her by spreading out her five fingers. She tried to demonstrate it. I asked my daughter whether she would love me to teach her how to respond. She answered in the affirmative. I told her that even though she […]
After two years in ministry, I noticed a pattern. Because of the setting where I pastored as a young man, I had a different congregation almost every year- virtually everyone is looking forward to greener pastures in cities. Friends, it troubled my heart. Folks come in raw and just right after they begin to catch spiritual sparks and you begin […]
I was driving for a conference about two years ago when Road Safety officials stopped me for routine checks. They told me that I had a worn tyre. I acknowledged it as true but explained that I would change it as soon as I had the means. The officer I explained to still penalised me. Another officer then came saying, […]
In the early days of ministry whenever you see me dance to the entrance of the church while service was midway, it was a strategic way to check whether more people were on their way to church or not. I kept looking out of the window. There was an occasion that I followed up intensely on five people who came […]
This is about my marriage and who I marry- I had requested to see him so I could inform him about the direction I sensed about the woman to marry. That lovely Friday morning in the month of June 2013, I announced to him what I sensed about a young lady in church. He told me two things that I […]
Today (18/03/2020) makes it exactly eight years that we had the first service in Eruwa. We were 14 in service and I shared on “Winning by the Blood”. What a mighty God we serve! I remember sitting with my spiritual father and asking him, “Daddy, if you are to start ministry all over again, what will be your three major […]
I drove into my parents home that night and it was strange that there was darkness. Even when there is no power supply, the generator should be running. I enquired about what went wrong. The person who was to put on the generator made a grave error- after checking the oil in the engine, he forgot to return the oil […]
I was already done preaching in church. I only returned to say the blessing over the church when I said, “That accommodation challenge is solved this week”. The team receiving first-timers brought feedback that there was one of the persons coming to church for the first time who had a pressing accommodation challenge. She had been sleeping in her office.
