The storm may be real. But so is God’s Word. What happens when the storm continues, the waiting stretches longer than expected, and escape starts looking attractive?

Between debt, distance, anger, love, loss and that seemingly innocent tap at the front porch, lies a deeper question for every couple: When turbulence hits, areContinueContinue reading “Navigating Marriage Turbulence: Two Perspectives”
Honoring Our Father’s Legacy
The greatest inheritance isn’t what our father left us. It’s who he taught us to become. One father. Nine children. One conversation that changed us all. 🌹 We came to celebrate Dad.

Sometimes theContinueContinue reading “Transformative Conversations: Insights from DICE Ministry”
Beautiful Gate Moments: Transforming Waiting into Encounter
Waiting can feel like God’s silence. Acts 3 reminds us, it may actually be God’s positioning. The lame man thought he was waiting for money. Heaven knew he was waiting for Christ.

Some gates are called beautiful long beforeContinueContinue reading “Beautiful Gate Moments: Transforming Waiting into Encounter”
The Egg, The Calculator and The Crisis Cushion
Three Rooms. One Conversation. In eight days, I spoke in a living room in Kayole, a welfare AGM with former colleagues in Gigiri, and a hotel conference room in Nyahururu. Different audiences.
