1. I spent the lockdown period thinking about so many things. I wondered about the weirdness of the pandemic. It all seemed so surreal. But then I decided to creatively maximize my time by penning a novella, The Garinja Files. #GarinjaFiles
2. It's a dystopian work and you'll find it a most interesting and enjoyable read. It is a fictionalised account. I will begin serialising the book on my social media platforms from tomorrow, posting a chapter a day. #GarinjaFiles
3. After the serialisation, you can download the entire book for FREE. Hopefully, we can begin to have so many conversations about nationhood and the man underground. The people are coming! #GarinjaFiles

Don't give under pressure. Give of your volition. If it's going to make you grumble, or unhappy, or bitter, don't give it. God loves a cheerful giver. There's no compulsory giving in the New Testament.
Have a healthy relationship with money. Love of money will make you amenable to evil. Jesus warned against Mammon.
Financial deprivation is relative before God. The widow's mite was more than the millionaire's might.
#Illuminare - ON FAITH - THE FINALE: FAITH NUGGETS
Begins now 👇
1. Over the past eleven weeks we have held communion on the subject of faith. Together, we navigated the theology of faith as espoused in scriptures. #Illuminare
2. This week, we round up the series. Here are some of the nuggets we shared. They serve as reminder of the lessons we learned. #Illuminare
#Illuminare - ON FAITH PART 10: NINETY-NINE PLUS ONE
Begins now 👇
1. In the last few weeks, we’ve been treating the subject of faith. There are many dimensions to faith. In this article, we’re going to be looking at faith for venture and innovation. Happy reading. #Illuminare
2. The Jewish society in the day of Jesus wasn’t much different from our society today. The elites were segmented. #Illuminare
1. So, here’s how the faith thing works. It’s like a machine. Think of a car engine with three gears or cogs that are all held together by a fan belt. That’s what the machinery looks like. #Illuminare
2. The first gear is the provisions made by God. The Bible says God has blessed us with EVERY SPIRITUAL BLESSING in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Ephesians 1:3 KJV. #Illuminare
1. The Bible says to visit the house of mourning if you want cogitative wisdom. Ecclesiastes 7:2-4. The house of mourning is not necessarily a funeral parlor. A hospital qualifies as house of mourning. #Illuminare
2. You become sober when you visit a hospital. It’s the opposite of a house of mirth – a night club or beer parlor. What is alarming is the continual supply of patients. The flow just never stops. #Illuminare
1. Humanly speaking, Jesus had to have been an extraordinary individual. There are no two ways about it. While his betrayal was in progress, and he knew what was going on, he instituted the rite of communion. 1 Corinthians 11:23 AMPC. #Illuminare
2. He just carried on with the program. Communion was the dramatized pre-announcement of the program of atonement. This is in consonance with God’s time-honored tradition of announcing stuff before it happens. Isaiah 42:9. #Illuminare
3. On a sentimental level, the rite of communion was designed to be an In Memoriam - like the placement of a memorial advert for a loved one in the dailies on the anniversary of death. Jesus said we should do it in affectionate remembrance of him. 1 Corinthians 11:24 AMPC.
