By Gary Thomas Women, my goal is to get you to care about your boyfriend’s godliness as much as a wife cares about her husband’s godliness. It’s his character that will help keep your life mission alive as feelings begin to fade. I’ve rarely had a wife complain to me about her husband’s looks. When wives send me emails, it’s almost always about character issues: “He shouldn’t do this thing. He should do that thing, but doesn’t. How do I fix this?” Yet most women are not seeking men of character first. They are seeking men with whom they feel “in love.” If they do feel in love, they will excuse every fault they see in their man, trying to make the relationship work. If they do not feel in love, they will not seriously consider the man as a potential mate. In front of a very large group, I asked all the married women to stand up. Then I said, “I want you to sit down if you disagree with me that a man’s godliness should be one of the top two things a single woman should consider when choo...

I see what is happening today in the world and i wonder how did we get here? Even after ages of social interactions we still get racial discrimination....  White discriminating against blacks, blacks discriminating against blacks. The only group not discriminating against the blacks are animals.  We don't see eye to eye, we are not united. Your parents told you not to marry from another tribe. Yorubas hating on the Igbos, the igbos hating on the hausas, your experience with a Yoruba individual masked your judgement against all yorbas...  South Africans hating on Nigerians. Nigerians hating on South Africans. Our continent isn't just filled with black people but it's filled with black people with black hearts.. we don't love eachother. We have the most christians and muslims but our religion is base on discrimination, hatred, love of money, etc... We are never one and we wonder why we are where we are?...  A house divided against itself cannot stand and th...

In order to live a fruitful and successful life, our zeal for God should be equal to our expectations from Him. As He said in His words : “Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. Matthew 7:7 NLT . The following steps will help in getting to chase after Jesus in order to attain a purposeful life. 1. Knowing Christ Ephesians 3:17–19: “That you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.” When you come to this reality, that God is all you need to have your needs met, then the zeal to know him more kick-start! 2. You Are Treasured: First Peter 2:9–10 shows us that, in Christ, this is now our identity as well. We are God’s treasure. He loves us, not because of what we’ve done but bec...
