Ever since God created the world and put man in charge of it, man has never stopped looking for ways and means to progress, especially outside of God. There was a time certain group of people decided to build a tower that would get to heaven. In Genesis 11:1-9, the Bible gave us an account of that story and this story was the genesis of the many cultures that will have across the world today. The Bible says: Listen to Podcast: Cultural Shift and Its Effect on Leadership “Now the whole earth had one language and one speech…” This…

On October 8, this year, the youth of the country began a protest with the hashtag #ENDSARS. It was aimed at curbing police brutality, which was encapsulated in a five-point demand to wit: Immediate release of all arrested protesters; justice for all deceased victims of police brutality and appropriate compensations for their families; setting up an independent body to oversee the investigation and prosecution of all reported police misconduct within a period of 10 days; carrying out psychological evaluation and retaining of all disbanded SARS operatives before they can be deployed, which should be verified by an independent body and…

On today’s episode of Leaderview, I want to share with you Five Things You Need to Move Your Nation or Organization Forward as a Missionary Leader! I believe that as a leader that you are, one of the things that is paramount in your heart is success. No leader wants to fail or prays to fail in any form.

Today on Leaderview, our beam of light will be projected towards spiritual leaders, but this does not mean that leaders in other spheres of life cannot benefit from the same word.

Listen to Podcast: The Scope of Your Mission as a Spiritual Leader One of the many things that is so fundamental in spiritual leadership and one that many spiritual leaders cannot afford to be in the dark about is that as a spiritual leader,…

I want us to begin by understanding the etymology of the word “missionary.” This understanding I believe would better give a proper perspective into what we want to discuss with ourselves today. Because most of the times, we have limited our understanding of who a missionary is to be a man or a woman in one remote village somewhere in the world propagating the work of the gospel. While this is absolutely true, that is not all there is to what the word “missionary” entails. Listen to Podcast: The Missionary Leader The term “missionary” is derived from the…

Let me begin by introducing to us what family leadership is, peradventure there are one or two persons out there who aren’t familiar with this aspect of leadership yet or who may not have seen it from this angle I am bringing our way today. Family leadership primarily occurs in an atmosphere where parents (the father and mother) model excellent values for their children in their upbringing. In other words, the father and mother become the compass for good behavior for their children in moral and character development. You would agree with me that one of the biggest challenges…

One fundamental reason why people get married is because they want to be better off in marriage than being single. I doubt there is any man or woman who nurses the ambition of going into the marital union and become worse off than they were before they got married. Marriage usually is meant to bring out the best in you, and not the worse in you. Listen to Podcast: Towards Resolving Marriage Disequilibrium The reason is because there are certain things you may never be able to accomplish on your own being single, until you enter into the…

“But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you”, which implies that serving the Lord could be undesirable to certain people, and it could be the reason why certain people today don’t regard God in their lives, in their families and all that they do. Joshua then proceeded thus: “then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:15 (NIV) Listen to Podcast: Raising Godly Family in an Ungodly World …

All I am going to be sharing with you in this piece are from the word of God as it has to do with marriage and not some random idea from a marriage therapist or a marriage psychologist. As we have established earlier, we are looking at marriage from the perspective of God who is the original founder of the marriage institution. So, what the word of God says concerning marriage is the final authority as far as the marriage institution is concerned. Listen to Podcast: Six Biblical Principles of An Ideal Marriage God will not bend His word…

Conflict resolution and managing crisis effectively is an hallmark of excellent leadership. One of the characteristics of a good leader is foresight; which in this context, talks about the ability to see crisis or danger looming and to quickly avert it as much as possible. Listen to Podcast: How To Resolve Conflict and Manage Crisis in Marriage as a Leader The biggest challenge that many marriages face nowadays is evidenced in the inability of the couples to resolve conflicts and manage crisis in the marriage. You would hear phrases like “we went our separate ways due to irreconcilable differences.”…
