On seeing this title I know a lot of you are already imagining that lowly, moody brother/sister who acts like the whole worlds sin is yoked to his/her neck. This article proves otherwise, it is rather a swag-ful, interesting guide on how to be an effective Christian wherever you may find yourself. (dusting dirt of shoulders)

“Renegade”, “Outlaw”, “Boss”, “Mr/Mrs I don’t give two f***s” (can’t even borrow you one) whatever you call yourself, well-done!!! Keep up the good work!!! Someday on your dying bed lying lonely, you’d then ask yourself “where have I missed it”.

The beginning seemed so exquisite, elegant, expensive and without any errors. The plan was so perfect God knew He had done well by creating these creatures that were made in His image and likeness. His heart melted with joy that these beings would always stand as His representatives because His spirit dwelt in them.

There is always an endless strife that drives us towards wanting to become masters of our craft. Our hearts beat with the desire to make change and introduce newness.

When last did you leave a Sunday or weekly service with your  Ipad,  notepad, brain pad full of vibrant captions and points that made your week outstanding?

The title of this article I believe is something a lot of people get it wrong. Have you come across this verse before? John 5:7-14

This post could scare you, if you have the guts ride on, if not, still read it lol With the rising intensity of paranormal movies, novels, tales, stories, myth, miracles, mirage, I feel it’s enough conviction for unshakable faith to believe that we don’t reside in this world alone.

   As the year 2015 rolls up its sleeves in fast motion for 2016 to slide in permanently, lets flashback to January 1 st 2015. That moment when you said “I’m going to quit procrastination” “I’m going to engage in positive activities” “I’m going to read my Bible three times daily” “I would quit bad friends”… despite the long list of “I will” and “I won’t”, did you really achieve the New Year resolution, goals, and plans?

   Merry Christmas everyone!!! I believe this year was indeed a great year indeed. Lots of things happened worldwide especially in Nigeria where it was a different ball game. Some homes that used basmati rice in celebrating Christmas previous years used the regular rice for this year’s celebration while others experience an elevated celebration. Basmati rice or regular rice, what’s the difference? What’s so special? Why can’t an average earner afford Basmati on a regular day? Must we show off to intimidate others because we have a lot or are others just feeling intimidated due to not having enough?

     Today makes it 28 days since my last post. I have been gathering information which i will be sharing with you. Frankly speaking, my spirit is bitter at this moment; I am deeply grief-stricken watching Christians live in contrast ideologies.

Scroll down to download.    Couple of  weeks back, i was writing couple of articles when my brother in South Africa John Okih ping me on this amazing album his friend Godwin Omighale released recently. He forwarded two songs to my mail and I'm delighted for hearing these tracks. 

   In my shoes, this Easter happens to be the best and favourite amongst the others.     Jesus is really alive and he truly rose on the third day. Mr Efeduma Kator aka Efe Kayz hails from Delta State, was born in Kaduna and a graduate of Delta State University giving him a wider scope on Nigeria culture. He possess a strong christian foundation at Foursquare Gospel Church where he gets filled with undiluted inspiration and motivation to express his inner most joy through singing.

   I was going through my Bible lately and I stumbled upon this amazing article. I decided to share it with you because its exactly same thing I have been practicing for years. Maybe that explains why I will live long.

My Father Christmas, You sent your only son on our behalf to give us the gift of life, A gift that is eternal and pure, A gift that is so precious it had to be wrapped in a human body And not a gift bag, A gift that wasn't meant for only today but A gift that we enjoy in our lives daily in new excitement.

   Goodday pals hope you all are doing fresh and warm today? I am a little bit spiritual at this week (lol)... today lets look at the two kinds of Bibles we have today and their implications over the other.         I was in church on a Sunday, my pastor asked everyone to turn to a particular scripture and read. He observed majority of the congregation were depending on the television screen that projects the scriptures. He ordered the media personae to turn it off so everyone can read from their Bibles. Few voices read aloud, he ordered everyone that didn’t have a Bible to standup, few people stood up. What moved me was when he added “those without hardcopy Bible stand up”. 70% of the church stood up. He was bitter that everyone is beginning to despise the hardcopy version of the Holy Bible rather depending on softcopy Bibles (ipads, smart phones, tablets e.tc.).

 This article was edited by John Ovuson Who is a celebrity?   A celebrity is a famous or celebrated person, one whose hard work has yielded productive results. Not every successful person turns out to be celebrated by the world. Am I right? Reasons I’m yet to know, but it doesn’t mean they are not celebrated amongst their peers or family.    The category of celebrities I am talking about are the ultra-famous ones; the ones we see on national TV, magazines, advertorials, movies, even in our dreams which involves movies, music artists and fashion models. I must confess that a celebrity’s life is not easy; it’s like living your world for the public and that’s why sometimes, it’s as though they live two separate lives (one for the TV the other for their family).    Many people are ready to do anything and everything for fame but the question is when you become famous, WHAT’S NEXT? Ever wonder about that? People thinks it’s all about shopping, c...
