Over three decades, and during my ministry at Wesley Cathedral, Olowogbowo, Lagos, I encountered many people with beautiful souls and families with a passion for mission and evangelism.

Her strength is God and her family....

Many of God’s wonderful promises no longer apply to the church today because we have dethroned the Lord through unbelief, sin, and pride, hence the present confusion, divisions, and lack of direction. Pride takes the throne when we dethrone the Lord (Hos 11:5). If you are in Christ, let nothing weaken your faith. God is Holy; without holiness, no one can see the Lord. He is coming again. In anticipation of Jesus’ Second Coming, no neutrality and no more time...
