A member of the church asked another member some years ago, “Does the Pastor see your status? Because if he sees this your status, I am sure by now you would have gotten a message from him!” What was the issue? She was indecently dressed with her cleavage out, and she paraded it on her status. Christianity and indecency are […]
A dear minister friend shared how a protégé called him once and said she had a dream where an ant bit her on her breast. She wanted to talk to him. He simply referred her to his wife. Those were not conversations meant for him. The relationship between a minister and the people he leads can be one that has […]
Danielle woke up in the middle of the night while I worked. After a while, she mentioned that she was hungry. There was a cup of beverage that Olive only took a sip out of some hours earlier. I offered that to her. As she drank, she wanted to move her leg and it all poured away. It pained me […]
There was a night Danielle went to bed pretty early and she woke up hungry the next day. She was so hungry that she wanted to have anything in sight. She took some water first. Then as a caring Dad, I wanted her to be strong on time, so I gave her a drink. She rushed it. A few minutes […]
During one of our training sessions, a young man stood up and said to me, “I hate my father and what he is doing, but I am doing exactly the same today. I hated to see my father drunk, but now I am drinking. I know that I will end up like him, looking at the path I am already […]

While processing and thinking about those I could reach out to, I remembered a young man who was not close to me in any way, but I knew he needed such an opportunity. I placed a call to those who […]
In the early years of ministry, I went to visit a dear family that I love dearly. Normally, when I visited as an undergraduate, it was certain that I would leave with some good money in my pocket. Do you know the way a broke student announces to his uncle or aunt the day he will be leaving? If he […]
We were in the middle of a conversation. Irewamiri said something that got me angry, and I decided to hold my breath. She did not realize it, though. I walked away from the place where we were having the conversation. I paused and spoke these words to the Lord: “Lord, help me to choose the right response in the middle […]
One evening at the university, I was heading to our sports complex when I met a friend of mine. While discussing, she told me that she would spend the evening attending a mentoring vigil with some of her other friends. I smiled and told her these exact words: “Why are you guys jumping around? What are you looking for? Sit […]
I knew when my girls came in from school. They would come into my office and greet me before they went on to do any other thing that they needed to do. But I heard their voice when they arrived but did not see my girls come in to greet me. About an hour later, Danielle walked to my office. […]
