AVAILABLE TO MEMBERS AND PATRONS ONLY Pregnant? The word rang in his ears. Ifeanyi dropped the receiver and crashed in his seat, as though he had been hit by a bulldozer. He hadn’t even imagined this possibility. He sat horrified, his mind racing, thinking about how he was going […]
The first month was the hardest. Erhuvwun woke up to the realisation that she’d married a stranger, and the scarier part of that was the meaning of marriage, rather than the fact that he was a stranger. In every respect, she had been sold into bondage, and she […]
I’m not okay. I’m not okay with the way of the world. I’m not okay that we don’t agree. I’m not okay that everything costs money. I’m not okay that so many have to do without. It seems these days everyone’s out for number one. Nobody seems to […]
Erhuvwun’s first thought was of Akpos, the man she’d wanted to marry, when her father told her about his foolish mistake. She’d been holding out for Akpos for over a year now, and had turned down other suitors, believing he was going to come back and take her […]
Wow! Exactly a month ago, I published my first paperbacks on Amazon.com, being for Perfect Love, The House Girl and He Cheated!. This month, I published The Originals (being The Church Girl, An Emotional Affair and Broken; my first three stories whose characters continue to live through my […]
I have been passionate for God since I was a child, and have been influenced by stories of Abraham, Moses and Samuel who heard God speak to them and call them out specially. I didn’t think God was going to call me like that, but I wanted to […]
So this month, I released two new titles, Perfect Love and The House Girl on Okadabooks.com and Amazon.com as ebooks on the 2nd and 8th of August respectively. My books have been doing really well on Okadabooks, where the reviews for both have been amazing! I’ve got one […]
In your group of friends, you’re known as the ‘Christian’, ‘Goody-Two-Shoes’, and – on a bad day – ‘Bible-Basher’. You’ve learned that your opinion is not wanted, appreciated or even acceptable in group discussions. But your friend has just told everyone at the lunch table that she’s planning […]
Christian evangelism has entered new waters in this our modern world. In some ways, it is easier to share your beliefs…with the advancement of technology, particularly the Internet and social media. And in many ways, it is harder to be received, not least because those who do not […]
I have a long way to go. I just threw a fit, cursed at and abused a truck driver who was reversing into my car because I refused to move out of the way, so he could make a 10 minutes maneuver, in preference that he’d move aside […]
Jesus said for us to be “wise as serpents, but gentle as doves” Matt 10:16. So the wolves and vipers of the world attack us when we approach them to tell them the Truth. Filled with knowledge, but having no desire to change, they like to use carnal […]
“That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them”. (Mark 4:12) By this saying, Jesus lets us know that spiritual vision is a gift, withheld from […]
“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” (John 10:10). This is a stark warning from Jesus, and a reminder of the goodness He offers us […]
Yesterday, inspired by my recent discussions with a former believer turned atheist, I wrote a piece called “When it is easier not to believe“, recognising that we all face times of doubt. I think I omitted a seventh and important situation when a believer may be tempted to […]
Hey hey! How’s the weekend going? Welcome to another episode of The Spotlight. Today, I’m doing another book review of a book which tells an age-old story in a whole new and African way. Meet the author, Sinmisola Ogunyinka. She’s a wife, mother, movie producer and talk-show host. She […]
AVAILABLE TO MEMBERS AND PATRONS ONLY It had been a month since he had submitted his notice, and Ifeanyi was still at Solomon Investment Bank. A replacement had been found, but he was still on his first week of training. After he had completed his first month, and Ifeanyi had handed over […]
Jesus teaches us that the pure in heart are blessed because only they will see God (Matt 5:8). When we are gifted with spiritual sight…to believe in God, to be aware of His presence, to desire His fellowship…we are blessed. But there are times when we do not […]
This message by Paul brings me much comfort, for it shows that he also dealt with the strong opposition of his faith in the Risen Christ, and that he had to consider the possibility that he was wrong. Even though he had personally seen Jesus after His resurrection. […]
Ever been at a party, and your favourite song comes on…and your instinct is to groove. Your foot is tapping the floor, your body is starting to sway, your heart is filling with joy… But then you look at your cool friend, who has a scowl on their […]
