Several years ago, when I heard people talk about church history or the bibles history, I’ll think to myself “none of this knowledge impacts or affects my faith in God, I don’t want anything to do with it”. My intention was pure, I was wary of ending up like people who in search of more … Continue reading Connecting the dots?

Prescribed Christianity
Recently read a post from one of my favorite writers: Sarah Bessey from 2013, and she said something that echoed so strongly with me, I have had what she said in my heart for a while but I never found the words to express it. She said 'the longer I know and love our Jesus, … Continue reading Prescribed Christianity
Checking the hanging scarlet scarf
I don’t think it was coincidental that I read about Rahab in my devotion today! Rahab, ‘the prostitute’ as the hall of faith remembers her (Hebrews 11:31), But I like to stick with the Matthew 1:5 description of her, as ‘the grandmother of Jesus’. That tells more of the grace that met her. I read … Continue reading Checking the hanging scarlet scarf
The loud and quiet lovers
One of the best parts of love is just how unique it is. The characteristics could be the same, but the expressions are always at the mercy of the parties involved. Every couple gets a clean slate to curate their expressions of love, not necessarily the characteristics or components of love, but its diverse expressions. … Continue reading The loud and quiet lovers
Navigating sexual attraction in courtship
I remember a time I went to Nigeria for holiday, Nelson and I had started courting, and the night before I left Abuja, he had flown in from Lagos to say goodbye because early that morning I left him a text saying “I wish I could see you one last time before I left”. Didn’t … Continue reading Navigating sexual attraction in courtship
Loving them into changing
I think this is often such a tricky conversation to be had, especially among Christian circles. It’s tricky because on one end, we teach “God never gave up on us, we must never give up on men”, and on the other end, we encourage “walk away if they are not treating you right”. The dilemma … Continue reading Loving them into changing
Loving the ‘wrong’ person
Today is day 3 of #FochLoveSeries and we talk about loving the wrong person. Someone might be thinking “what makes a person wrong?”, “how does one end up loving a wrong person?” We will break it down very shortly. The first thing to note is that this mostly happens unconsciously. It happens consciously sometimes, but … Continue reading Loving the ‘wrong’ person

The promise has been kept
It is amazing how Christians still live the whole of this life anticipating something from God in every season. It is usually an answer to a prayer that, on deep introspection, only affects this world. I haven’t tested this hypothesis, but just thinking of the biggest desire in my heart right now, I can tell … Continue reading The promise has been kept
The ideal ‘ojoro’
After church on Sunday I got talking with a member who I’d never met before. After we exchanged pleasantries, she asked what I did professionally and I did same after answering her. She told me how she worked at a visa office, making decisions on peoples visas daily. I jokingly asked if she realised how … Continue reading The ideal ‘ojoro’
