AVAILABLE TO MEMBERS AND PATRONS ONLY Chukwudi and Uchechukwu were officially toddlers, having turned two years old in April. Mary and Ifeanyi had decided to skip throwing a birthday party for a family outing instead. They had taken lovely photos of the twins and Abigail and all the family, […]
Do you think that it is possible that someone in this world right now could wake up tomorrow morning and declare that he or she is a dog, living inside a human body? Do you think that if such a person was to come out {of the closet}, […]
“Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God” (Romans 13:1). Okay, it’s been a while since I wrote about my Bible reading journey. It’s not because I haven’t come across some […]
Part One Once upon a time, God established a grand light (imagine the Sun) to enlighten our paths on the Earth. The light revealed what was true and exposed what was evil. It shall be called Morality. Men began to hide from this light, living in shadows and […]
Erhuvwun preferred to wash their clothes by the stream. She had told Amadi how the flowing water was ideal for rinsing them off and left a lovely fragrance in the fabrics. After the first time, when his wrappers had returned brighter than they’d ever been, he hadn’t challenged […]
When you hear that the end of the world is nigh…and God’s judgement is coming upon the world, what is the primary emotion you feel? I suspect it is FEAR! But fear is what unbelievers should feel, people who do not know God or those who do, but […]
“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, […]
“I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled? But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished! Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I […]
I think we all think that we are better than we really are. We would like to believe that given a moral dilemma, we would rise to the occasion and do the right thing, no matter the consequence. We are also quick to damn those who fail in […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
