A few years ago, while I lived in the same city I went to university, I served in a church which was a student fellowship, we had young couples who also chose to stay and fellowship with us despite it being largely for students. During the planning season of one of our annual events, while … Continue reading Imaginary babies

The seed in dead air
There is something called “dead air” in broadcasting and theatre. It usually has a negative connotation because it means the audience has been left without entertainment for a sustained period. So generally, theatres and broadcast outlets often plan things to avoid dead air. They do well to keep the audience occupied throughout the duration of … Continue reading The seed in dead air
My memoir of year two
This was suppose to go live two weeks ago but my first attempt at writing it, I got soaked in my own tears, the second attempt, I was convinced it read too much like a fairy tale, the third attempt was me trying hard to avoid a fairy tale story. And so, with the many … Continue reading My memoir of year two
On being Christian and feminist …
The problem with accepting the labels given by the world is that you don’t get to explain the extent of your own subscription to it. This is why believers stand in one identity (Christ) and we can subscribe to ideologies and thoughts, but just not allow them become another identity, the moment it does, you’ll … Continue reading On being Christian and feminist …

Stooping to edify
I love the physical house of God. I love the gathering of the brethren. I genuinely love the God-idea behind community. It reminds me of a God fully committed to helping and supporting us in every way, even through His vessels on earth. Adrenaline levels tend to climb when we’re in environments that trigger happy … Continue reading Stooping to edify

The uncertainty of life by nature constitutes another winning point for the faith we profess because we’re in relationship with … Continue reading Takes much audacity
Might not be morning when you wake up
I often think about a quote of C. S. Lewis from Mere Christianity, he said “pain and suffering are the megaphone to the heart of man”, he concludes with this quote after an exegesis on how we don’t hear the same way when we’re on the mountain top and when we’re down in the valley. … Continue reading Might not be morning when you wake up
