Deep Dive | Trusting God In Life’s Seasons: When Life Feels Unfair

There are moments when God’s timing feels unjust. You watch others move forward while you remain stuck. You pray, but nothing shifts. These seasons test not just your patience, but your theology. Is God good when life is not? Is He present when progress is absent? Trusting divine timing requires…

Boyhood | Labelled the Troublemaker

A boy labelled as a troublemaker is often a boy whose deeper needs are being overlooked. Sometimes the behaviour people correct is actually frustration, insecurity, or unmet emotional needs. Advising boys requires recognising their potential beyond the labels placed on them. Jesus consistently noticed and called unlikely individuals; the same…

Deep Dive | Trusting God In Life’s Seasons: Waiting Without Clarity

Waiting is not passive. It is often the most active form of trust. When clarity is absent and answers are delayed, the temptation is to fill the silence with control. But God’s timing is not always explained. It is revealed slowly, often through surrender. The discomfort of waiting can become…

Deep Dive | Trusting God In Life’s Seasons: Recognising The Shifts

Life does not move in straight lines. It unfolds in seasons—some clear, some confusing. Trusting God’s timing begins with recognising that change is not always a problem to solve. It may be an invitation to listen more closely. Not every season is productive. Some are preparatory. Some are quiet. Some…

Manhood | Being A Stepdad With Wisdom And Grace

Stepping into a blended family calls for sensitivity and spiritual maturity. A stepfather’s role isn’t about replacing anyone, but about navigating a complex environment with intention and humility. It requires a balance of leadership, gentleness, and emotional intelligence. Advising stepfathers means helping them recognise that their influence is significant, even…

Deep Dive | The Role of Mentorship In Spiritual Growth: Multiplying Mentorship

Mentorship is not just personal. It is cultural. Churches, ministries and families thrive when spiritual growth is relational, not just informational. When older believers walk with younger ones, when seasoned leaders invest in emerging voices, the body of Christ becomes stronger and more united. Mentorship multiplies maturity. It is not…

Family of Faith | Making Worship a Daily Habit

Worship isn’t just for church—it’s for the kitchen table, the car ride, the bedtime routine. Family worship doesn’t have to be polished or perfect to be powerful. It’s not about performance; it’s about presence—God’s and each other’s. When families worship together, they create sacred rhythms that shape identity, build resilience,…

SOP | Christ’s Object Lessons 9: The Pearl

The pearl in the parable is purchased at great cost—yet Scripture also calls Christ a gift. This paradox reveals a deeper truth: salvation is free, but it costs us everything. Not because we earn it, but because receiving Christ means surrendering self. The merchant didn’t negotiate. He gave all. That’s…

Womanhood | Navigating In-Laws

In-law relationships can be sacred or strained—or both. They often carry unspoken expectations, cultural tensions, and emotional landmines. But peace isn’t the absence of conflict—it’s the presence of Christ in the middle of it. You don’t have to choose between being a peacemaker and having boundaries. Jesus modelled both. The…

SOP | Christ’s Object Lessons 9: The Pearl

The merchant in Jesus’ parable wasn’t casually browsing—he was searching with purpose. And when he found the pearl of great price, he didn’t hesitate. He sold everything. That kind of surrender only makes sense when the treasure is truly priceless. Christ is that treasure. But many today settle for lesser…

Girlhood | When You Feel Invisible

Invisibility isn’t always about being ignored—it’s about being unseen in your full humanity. For many girls, especially in noisy homes or crowded classrooms, it’s easy to feel like your voice doesn’t matter. But the God who saw Hagar in the wilderness sees you. He doesn’t just notice you—He names you,…

Deep Dive | The Role of Mentorship In Spiritual Growth: Why It Matters

Spiritual growth is not meant to be a solo pursuit. God often uses relationships to shape us, challenge us and call us deeper. Mentorship is not about hierarchy or expertise. It is about humility, presence and shared pursuit of Christ. When we walk with someone who has journeyed ahead of…

Manhood | Navigating Divorce as A Christian Man

Divorce is a death of sorts—the death of a dream, a covenant, a shared future. For Christian men, it can feel like failure wrapped in silence. The Church often doesn’t know what to do with divorced men: are they broken? Disqualified? Dangerous? But Scripture tells a different story. God meets…
