Weather – The joy of waking up and seeing the sun is enough to want to live in Nigeria. The sun brings vibrancy to the country. Though during the rainy season the sky is downcast, still the sun comes out after the rain.

Parenting is the most pleasant opportunity that the Lord Almighty will grant us in expressing love to another human being. Parenting is like nurturing a plant by tilling the soil, watering it and watching it grow. Parenting is demanding, overwhelming but can be very rewarding.
What does the Bible teach about parenting?
Continue reading “Parenting”Marriage from a Christian Perspective.
Marriage from a Christian perspective is God’s initiative. Genesis 2:18 states that: “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.” (NIV)
