There was a day my dad called me and mentioned that I had to visit a dear relative who was bereaved in Ibadan. He had gone like twice in a short while. He insisted I needed to go. I wanted to go but I had to tell him that I could not go at that moment. He asked why I […]
In the first year of ministry, a beloved one needed my help with a matter. I would have to make a call but all I had could only send a text. I sent her a text requesting that she should call the contact shared. She got angry and asked, “Are you saying you do not have money to recharge your […]
A beloved brother in the faith visited me some time ago, and we began to share about how the Lord has blessed us both in the past year. He mentioned that it was amazing to know that the year he spent the most time in God’s presence was the year he had great individual and ministerial breakthroughs. He shared about […]
When the ministry office opened in that roadside shop thirteen years ago, I knew that I had no option but to be disciplined with the work. There was no way I would leave the legal profession to a higher calling to Eruwa and do less. I would dress up formally and get to the office very early. I was so […]

I was visiting a doctor friend at work when I saw a young lady with a fully swollen mouth. My friend said to me that she had a broken jaw. That was even worse. How did she get it? She got in between two people exchanging blows in a bar. First, there is no in-between in the things of the […]
About seven years ago, we had just finished our Sunday service. Those in charge of church finance had a normal place to keep the tithes and offerings. As they placed them there that day, I felt a prompt within me to change where they were kept before I left the office. I took the cash and placed it somewhere else. […]
It happened around Yaba in Lagos State. It was still a bit early in the morning. We parked, waiting to connect with someone. Then we saw the most unusual scene- it has not left my mind since then. We saw a man and a woman who wore the same attire driving by at speed in a car. The unusual thing […]
I was working in the library. Before I could blink an eye, Danielle had gone inside a shelf and closed the door to hide from Olive. My fatherly instinct came on.
