The Spotlight – Hell Hath No Fury, An African Christmas Romance Anthology
So, three months ago, I got a message on Instagram asking me to take part in a book project, an African Christmas Romance Anthology. The sender went by the name The Eccentric Diva (Youtuber) aka @camaa_pearl. Eccentric indeed! When she said the title of this Christmas anthology would […]
Shame – The Devil’s Sticky Tape (Part 2)
Five years ago, I wrote Shame – The Devil’s Sticky Tape and talked about how the enemies of the gospel like to use shame to silence us from speaking the truth. With this post, I encouraged believers, who are imperfect and have made mistakes, not to consider that […]

Is It Ever Right To Say Sorry When You Don’t Mean It?

The Problem With Wondering “What If…”
We all do it, I’m sure. Wonder “what if I’d done this and not that?” “What if I’d been there or not been there?” “What if I’d listened to that person or chosen a different action?” Such thinking serves only to frustrate and torment us, because it changes […]
