Okay, be honest… I’m sure I am not the only one! You don’t even have to be female to wonder along these lines. Paul is a phenomenal person, whose mark on Christianity is second to none – except Christ of course, whose name we all bear! Yes, Paul’s […]
Many people think I am nice. You know, because I am Christian, they feel I ought to be nice, friendly and agreeable. And the fact that I am charitable and compassionate magnifies the perception that I am naive, easy and a push over. Resisting other people’s urge to […]
Osinachi returned home on Thursday morning, as she preferred to return when she knew Donald would be at work. She wasn’t yet ready to see him, and they still hadn’t spoken since she’d left home on Monday. She’d contacted the nanny service to request for the woman she […]
AVAILABLE TO MEMBERS AND PATRONS ONLY Ifeanyi dropped Ijeoma at home, and helped her carry Emeka up to her room. On his way out he met her mother, and bowed in greeting. “Good evening, Ma.” “Good evening, Ifeanyi,” Mrs Njokwu said with a knowing smile. “How was your […]
The Lord ministered something to me today. It was something I needed to hear, and it has set me free from the task of worrying and judging. I hope others are blessed by this message. While I was reading an e-book by another Sister in Christ, whom I […]
When two people who love each other, decide to live together…they don’t usually think about the times they will quarrel. Or the times they will want to be apart. Or even the times, they will consider hurting one another! They know it might get tough at times, but […]
The reality of the Christian Church today is that we are divided. The issues that we are divided on are so vast, and the fear we have for deception is so strong, that we do not know what to lay down as an opinion and what to uphold as […]
“Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee” (1 Tim 4:16). How important is doctrine in the life of a Christian? What is doctrine, really? Google defines doctrine as a “belief […]
“When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things” (1 Cor 13:11). There comes a point in every person’s life when they know they have to […]
If you happen to have read my post Think BIGGER!, you may have had some of your views on and practices of Christianity challenged. Some of your deeply entrenched doctrines would have been strongly refuted by that brief Bible study and revelation of who you are in Christ. […]
Some of you may be aware that I was once a part of a fellowship that took literally the teachings of Jesus, including the one that is the title of this post, by refusing to work in a job for money. They are/were called the Jesus Christians, and […]
Chinwe Ebuka was shocked when she opened her Abuja apartment door at 9:30pm that Monday night to find her niece standing there, unkempt. She opened the door wider to let her in, her thoughts racing as she wondered what could have happened to her. “What happened to you, […]
AVAILABLE TO MEMBERS AND PATRONS ONLY Ifeanyi got home just after 11pm. He was half expecting to find himself locked out, for his rebellion, but was relieved when he got into his home without a problem. He fell on his bed as soon as he got in, physically […]
The account of Peter walking on the water to Jesus is very popular. It is used by many Christian ministers to teach why we must keep our eyes fixed on God. I would like to spend some time on it today, to see if there are other lessons […]
