Beloved, I cannot guarantee you a magic potion to landing a fancy Disney marriage, but I can guarantee you wisdom to not landing a horrible one. And because godly marriages are miles better than Disney fantasies, here are five reasons why some young Christian women are not ready for godly relationships that lead to thriving marriages. Speaking ill of marriage and relationships What do you reckon…More
In the 21st Century we have a generation that professes to be Christian but has forgotten how to blush at entertainment that spits in the face of God- a generation of professing believers that conforms to the world and thinks that Christ Jesus complies. If you call yourself a Christian, Jesus has a lot to say about the entertainment you…More
Søren Kierkegaard once said, “There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.” The Christian faith when it first came into the scene was too incredible to believe. To say that God loves, God incarnated himself into Christ, God died, resurrected and that He associates with the…More
I recently posted a Facebook update about four things that a born again husband ought to do for his wife as required by the Lord. It gained considerable traffic and many people were interested in it. I decided to expound each reason and add a fifth. So these are five things that a married man of God is required by…More
Below are three unbiblical statements that some Christians often use that are not true. God helps those who help themselves This statement is not in the Bible. The intended meaning of this statement is often to encourage men and women not to sit around when their lives fall apart but to actually do something. While God-given freewill is noble, this…More
Hi, Ernest. I am born again believer. I have a question. Is it okay that believers participate in debates about faith, morality and God? Why do we have to prove to others what we believe? Can’t God fight for himself? Thank you for the question. It is a very good one. We are living in an age in history where…More

This thing about your name on a Coke bottle is great! If you don’t like it, don’t take it badly. It’s nothing personal. Really, it’s not that they chose to ignore you or anything. It’s just that…well…how do I put this? It’s just that your name is Kiogora. If it’s any consolation, I haven’t yet found one with the name…More
I woke up this morning to a Facebook post from my cousin. She asked: What holds a man back from committing to marriage? The question is general so let me clarify. The context of the question was notwithstanding all struggles such as lack of money, a strained relationship or lack of a woman to marry. The assumption was a man who ought…More
Writing a pro-resolutions blog is outdated, un-newsworthy and too cliche to read. At least that’s what the Internet is saying. It’s 2015 and we want something new, right? Even your friends are saying it too. There is probably that one person that convinced you that they abandoned the business of sitting down with pen and paper in January with the…More
Boniface Nyoike is a good friend of mine. I invited him to speak at the Men of Integrity (Mo1) ministry that I lead at CITAM Valley Road mid this year. Apologies for the distractions in the recording at the start. If you are a man, I urge you to be humble, teachable and listen. Listen. Generally speaking, we men hardly…More
When I got married, I was met with a few realities that I never expected. I thought I was weird for having encountered these realities until I spoke to a few other married folk, only to realize that the experiences were mutual. I thank God that I was prepared for some of these realities thanks to pre-marital counselling and my…More
Yesterday morning, I was driving with my wife and three friends to Nakuru. I was the preacher of the day at Nakuru’s Christ Is the Answer Ministries (CITAM) Church. The speed limit is 100 kph on the highway to Nakuru. Like a good citizen I maintained the legal speed until I approached the escarpment slope. Many cars were zooming past…More
Have you ever differed so strongly with someone that the mere thought of having the conversation go on would mean knocking someone’s jaw out? Though you exercised restraint, you realized that you could have dealt with the issue with more maturity. I confront issues a lot; however I am not a fan of online confrontations, especially on sensitive issues with…More
Dear parent, your teenager could be addicted to porn and you have no clue. If that does not send shivers down your spine, the rest of the blog probably will. Hopefully the shivers will stir us to do the right thing and not repeat some mistakes we are currently making with pornography and our children. If you live in an…More
