This episode is part of my podcast series DEAR ATHEIST… If you prefer, LISTEN NOW. ***** I saw a post the other day that presented the argument that homosexuality is not the only sin that God condemns, and if Christians can be divorced, remarried and still go to Church, why can’t […]
Hey y’all! It’s another week and another episode of The Spotlight. How are you doing? I hope awesome 🙂 I finished a new book yesterday. It’s one that I’ve been curious about for a while and planned to read, but never really got around to. And when I […]
I suffer from a most common ailment known to man…the inability to escape my head, ignore my heart nor outrun my body. I am limited by my own perceptions of the world, constructed by my personal experiences, defined by my beliefs.  Being spiritual has not yet delivered me […]
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}, […]
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 […]
Here’s a short excerpt: First of all, I must give thanks to God. Â I stand here today by His amazing grace. Â I praise Him for all that He saw me through and the many ways He has moulded me to be the woman I am today. Â I give […]
Here’s a short excerpt: “The day wey you throw me commot for house,” Chinyere began, looking at Osinachi. “I think say I go go my aunty office, but the place de far. I don tire for sun and I begin de stop taxi for road.  I tell them […]
Here’s a short excerpt: Osinachi walked in to the small two-bedroom apartment. She placed her dish on the dining table and stood awkwardly until Chinyere offered her a seat. “Thanks.” Chinyere went into the kitchen to get a plate and a spoon. She had just been about to […]
“How’s your day going?” Those four words were as “I love you” to Osinachi. Â Donald didn’t say those three amazing words often, but whenever he sought to communicate with her and find out how she was doing and feeling, and made the effort to show he cared, she […]
It had been a month since that horrible day, when Mrs Peterson had thrown her out of her home. Â Only Chinyere knew the hell she had suffered that day before she’d made it to her aunty’s place in Abuja. Â She’d initially thought of going to her Oga’s office […]
Trauma. How can one define it? It is like a poison that corrupts the soul. It seeps deep into the mind and binds itself to the person who has suffered a traumatic experience. You do not always know when trauma is taking hold. In order to cope, your […]
Donald could hear the sirens from a mile away. Â He looked out of his bedroom window and saw the police cars as they drove on his street and parked outside his house. Â They were here! Â Ms Ebuka had called the police! Donald panicked. Â They had already blocked the […]
“Three nights ago, my niece showed up at my doorstep soaking wet and looking like she’d run into some thugs, who had beaten her mercilessly! Â She fainted moments later. Â How she got to my house, I don’t even know. Â Why she left your house, I still don’t know. […]
Osinachi returned home on Thursday morning, as she preferred to return when she knew Donald would be at work. Â She wasn’t yet ready to see him, and they still hadn’t spoken since she’d left home on Monday. Â She’d contacted the nanny service to request for the woman she […]
