We Are Not Celebrities
I had seen him before, but did not take too much notice of him. Listening to him teach was promising. One night, after praying, the visions of the Lord that came to me included him. I saw this young man as a child who had taken oversized clothing and wore them. It was such a…

Sartorial Sins, Buttocks, “Monkeys,” and the Hypocrisy of the World.
That this world is perverse is a no-brainer, all can see alike (can they?). Yet, the plight of it is worsened by obsequiousness, biases, and indifference, mostly observed in those who occupy seats of influence. People whose voices could improve such perversion and injustices seem too selective in their vociferousness. The Norwegian women’s handball team’s…

Make Room or Lose
Declutter your mental wholesale or risk losing life-changing moments. There are those groups of people among us who will always doubt with passion what God does in the life of others. To such people, I say, learn to ignore them. No amount of explanation will appease their biases about you. They have a preconceived picture…

The Race to Our Deaths
As much as I wouldn’t want to sound pessimistic, it is inevitable for me not to consider this purview of life. We are in a race, not against ourselves but against time, and towards a common goal – a common end, our death. Yes, we are in a race towards our death, but sadly we…

To Be or Not To Be?
To be or not to be? To be happy or sad, to be ebullient or doleful, to be passionate or moody? To be or not to be is the quest I set out to seek. It’s the puzzle I needed to solve, the enigma that stared me down to red teary eyes. The proof of…

Left, Right or Forward – Our Blind Date with Unipolarity
I wish I was 20 again, so I could know to do better. I wish I was 30 again, then I’d have been smarter. I wish I could be 40 for just a year, and there dare my mind those decisions again. But such is the enigma of life. Such are the perils that line…

How Other Christians Are Crossing Over!
Over here, we are crossing over in grand styles. The hype is so malignant that, anyone who is unable to go to church tonight will feel so left out. Yet, while we gloat over our hysterical crossing overs and leaping overs, throwing millions of dollars away in the egoistic displays of humongous billboards, showing off…

God, You, And The Hysteria of 31st December.
This may surprise you, but God may not do anything new on 31st December for you. In Christ, any day could be a special day, so God does not need to wait till new year’s eve before answering your prayer. He has not been waiting since January 1st 2019, to do that remarkable thing for…

Heaven May Be Filled With People Who Don’t Talk To Each Other
While most believers continue in denial over their inability to keep the commandments of scripture – such as ‘Love thy neighbor as thyself,’ some garnish their failures with the doctrine of Grace – citing it as a vaccine to protect them from their Christian maturity deficiencies [CMD]. Our failure to act as mature believers is…

The Evangelical Bargain
All throughout the U.S elections and campaign you’d see evangelical Christians prophesying and praying over Donald Trump. Their hearts were for him, they’d galvanize church members and fellow evangelicals to affirm him come election day. I even heard one renowned preacher say to an interview hosts; “This is not an ordinary election, it is a…
