You can take a villager to the city but you can’t easily take the village out of him without a change of mindset and experience. In the same way, a person’s economic and spiritual status can change but stay stuck in the thinking and habits of the past. The pain of poverty lingers in the lives of people and controls their decisions without realizing it. That’s why you see politicians who pile bags of money

The world is groaning under the weight of suffering – diseases, hunger, wars, joblessness, natural disasters, crime, heartbreaks, bareness, failure and injustice, among others. History, too, is packed with stories of people who suffered through the same things that bring suffering to millions today. Fortunately, we’re abit better off nowadays due to modern technology and discoveries in medicine and agriculture. Have you ever suffered in your life? I have. A little. As a young single

We can’t live the Christian life and be true witnesses of Christ in the world without understanding who Jesus is, His message and our identity in Him. He is at the start, centre and end of mankind’s past, present and future. That’s why we count time as BC (Before Christ) and AD (After Christ was born). If we miss Christ, we miss everything. This article is not meant to put any Christian down but to

God takes His time to prepare His servants for ministry. A Chinese bamboo seed takes five years to break, germinate and rise out of the ground. Every day it’s watered and fertilized and nothing seems to change. In the fifth year, the seed breaks and the shoot grows upward approximately one inch every forty minutes. That’s growth on steroids. Bamboo is stronger than steel and it’s used for bicycle frames and in construction. Its fibre

That’s why Jesus said that we shall know people by the fruit they bear in their actions and words. Does he fear God by hating evil and love God by obeying His commands? A man who doesn’t show the fear of God won’t fear hurting you. If he claims to love God and not do

I thank God I married a lady I had known for years before we ever thought of starting a relationship. During that time, we related without trying to prove or hide anything. One thing I knew about Damalie during our friendship was that she loved Christ with all her heart. I could hear it in her talk, see it in her dressing, conduct and in the way she treated other people. For that, I’m grateful

If you met a man with a wife and two daughters. He rents a two-bedroomed house, rides a motorcycle to feed his family and the children study in a simple school in their neighbourhood. He has managed to invest in a small piece of land. Would you say he is a rich man? The answer depends on your perspective. If owning a car means being rich then the man is poor. If owning a house

God cares about who we marry and where they come from. When Abraham wanted a wife for Isaac, he warned his servant not to get a wife from the surrounding people. Why? Because marriage is the merging of two families with different cultures and beliefs. For this reason, God warned the Israelites not to marry foreign women. (Exodus 34:16) Sadly, some didn’t listen. Two prominent men in the Bible paid a high price for going

After experiencing the pain of a second rejection, I told God my days of pursuing girls were over. I was going to wait until after two years or more. I assumed they had rejected me because I didn’t have lots of money or come from a rich family. It was time to focus on my career and start a relationship after two years. Months later, while chatting with Damalie on WhatsApp, she said, “I have
