“ARE YOU A PASTOR?”

On the trip, the police officer asked me to park for routine check. After checking the car’s trunk, he requested for the papers and my driver’s license. I handed it over to me. While checking the papers, he asked me, “Are you a Pastor?” I replied in the affirmative. He said to me, “You should have introduced yourself and I […]

OUR WHATSAPP APP

We were simply looking into each other’s eyes and talking. An evening time out was enjoyable. Then she remembered that the Whatsapp App on her phone was not working. I picked the phone and began to work on it. After succeeding, I handed the phone over to her and she said “Thank you”. She began to check up the phone […]

MISTAKES THE YOUNG MAKE (9)

Danielle came to sit on my laps as I savoured the rice and goat meat. She definitely wanted some. I gave her about two spoons of rice. Then her focus changed, she wants “fish”- that’s meat. I picked up a tiny part of the meat and gave her. She shook her head. I told her it was meat. She still […]

MISTAKES THE YOUNG MAKE (8)

My late Grandfather queried that day, “What is Anuoluwapo doing? Is he opening a law office? Why cant he open a law office alongside ministry also?” My dad was there to rescue me from the questions as I just looked at Grandpa at that dining table in Eruwa. Dad said to him, “He has made a wise choice. I really […]

MISTAKES THE YOUNG MAKE (7)

When I noticed that my heart was drawn towards the young lady in my church and I perceived she would be my wife, I went to my spiritual father to inform him. His counsel remains timeless and I can never forget: “First, be sure you heard God. Second, Do not marry a woman who does not believe in God’s vision […]

MISTAKES THE YOUNG MAKE (6)

My late grandparents has something very unique that I can never take for granted- relationships. They have such solid bonds with people from different seasons of their lives. Whenever I sit with corp members exiting Eruwa, I sound it loud and clear- do not joke with relationships. Keep in touch with us and with your batch! One mistake we make […]

It was a high brow hotel on the Island somewhere in Lagos State. I had stopped over to say hello to a dear mentor who was in town. After our discussion, I dipped my hands into my pocket and slipped a cash gift into his hands- It was my way of saying thank you. He does not need my money. […]

MISTAKES THE YOUNG MAKE (4)

He is a key person in the church. He walked to my office and said to me, “Pastor, I am sorry I did not say this earlier. I will leave service to speak some where”. I responded, “You can go but when you return, we have a discussion”. Friends, platforms and invitations are exciting. They always seem like affirmation that […]

He looked at me that night and said, “I have done everything I can but the ministry is not growing”. I asked him, “Describe how you feel in one word. And please dont try to sound like a pastor”. His answer was simple, “Frustrated”. I could pick it. I could see it. He has put in so much money- big […]

MISTAKES THE YOUNG MAKE (2)

That morning in his office, I told him: “Sir, I simply want to ask that I learn from you. Baba is a General. You are a Major General. There are things Baba will say that will take me years to understand. Can I constantly seek explanations from you too sir?” That question redefined a lot of things for me in […]
