Outlier. Anomaly. Misfit. Maverick. These are words I’ve used to explain myself over the years. In coping with my ongoing identity ‘crisises’, there was always the need to describe myself with an adjective. Weirdo seemed too common so I found big big English! Anyways I’m writing this to a fellow weirdo. And we are all … Continue reading Outlier
I think this is going to be the last segment of this story and probably the most instructive. I’ll name this one a Paradox of persons. Gradually I have become a paradox. So much my twitter name is ‘The Young Uncle’ because it most captures my reality. Like stated in my last post I started … Continue reading The Journey to Identity 3
Hello Guys. Thank you so much for responding to the last post that I wrote like play. Now I want to be over-serious this time. I ended the last post by wishing my journey to identity was over but it wasn’t – in fact it had just started. I’ll sub name this post a conflict … Continue reading The Journey to Identity 2
The way I struggled to write this post ehn but we thank the Lord! Over the past few weeks I've encountered something in multiple places and conversations with people dear to me and that is the struggle of Identity. The struggle of Identity is probably the biggest struggle of our age and is really a … Continue reading The Journey to Identity
Writers Note — This is the second piece i’m writing in the style of C.S. Lewis’ “The Screwtape Letters”. The Screwtape Letters is a collection of fictional letters written from Screwtape (A senior Tempter) to Wormwood his Nephew teaching him how to more effectively do his work. This also contains part of the message of my book … Continue reading Steal His Joy – Immobilize Him
My Dear Wormwood, I read in your last letter your complaints on the near impossibility of winning over your patient because of the legacy of his faith from child birth. I shook my head in disgust as I read your letter and wondered if you have ever read the Tempters Handbook well or even paused … Continue reading How to Catch a RAC (Raised as Christian) – Another Screwtape Letter
In Keeping with my practice over the Last Two Years of giving Fictional Christmas Stories, I present to you Josephs Delight – a story not written from the perspective of Joseph the father of Jesus but Joseph the owner of the Inn where Christ was born. Joseph is the father of Sara who I wrote … Continue reading Josephs Relief
Its only apt that I talk about Joy one more time before the year ends. This year I self-proclaimed myself a Joy activist and I actually thought I had figured it out but haq haq I didn’t know what was going on! Andy Mineo once said something to the effect of whenever the devil attacks … Continue reading JOY to the New Year
For long I’ve battled how to write this post and articulate the feeling of Chapter 21 and the Fight for Joy into one post but till now I haven’t been able to do so. As a creative, I always try to chart endings to story. That is, I could hear a story and try to … Continue reading Chapter 21 + The Fight for Joy
Joy. Joy is what keeps us going. It’s our engine. Let me explain. We all have an internal desire to be happy and content. That desire is only human. It's not a strange desire considering we were created by God and God is to be glorified. We like God In whose image we were created … Continue reading The Fight For Joy
