Wow! Thank you, Sister Elizabeth, for being genuine.
Christianity is damn hard. You have to deny yourself daily and remain at enmity with sin.
The fact that millions of Christians continue to sin and pretend otherwise doesn't change what Christianity demands of us.
One of the reasons I stopped going to church was that I couldn’t reconcile the lifestyle I wanted to live with what the Bible taught.
The Bible has clear positions on premarital sex, modesty, drinking and several other things. I couldn’t imagine going to church every Sunday, reading my Bible and constantly feeling guilty because I knew I was living in ways that contradicted what I understood Christianity to teach.
What I find interesting tho is when “Christians” try to water down or reinterpret biblical teachings to make room for the very things those teachings condemn, picking and choosing parts of the Bible they like. The recent debate on the timeline about whether premarital sex is a sin is a good example. I find it quite funny, honestly.

It's official! I defended my PhD in September and my thesis was accepted yesterday morning! Been in school for 20.5 years (13 for K-12, 3 for undergrad, 4.5 for PhD) and it's hard to believe my time as a student is finally coming to an end, but I am excited for the next chapter!

Aunty, where exactly do you think you're going?

Lori Huang is not just a "billionaire’s wife" she is an engineer who helped build the bedrock of the family empire.
Long before the billions, Lori Mills met her at Oregon State University. Lori was one of only three women in a class of 250. They married in 1985, eight years before Nvidia was even founded.
In Silicon Valley's early days, Lori worked as a microchip engineer at Silicon Graphics and initially made more money than Jensen, keeping the family afloat.
Lori raised their two children, Madison and Spencer, who both went on to take critical leadership roles at Nvidia in product marketing and robotics.
She is the co-trustee of family trusts holding over 500 million Nvidia shares, and serves as President of their $9 billion charitable foundation.
This is NOT a payday/jackpot for her. She has worked and invested in the wealth too.
I just need one, one Nigerian in the diaspora to detail their experience as a sole provider or a beneficiary of a provider husband. Just one. First hand account & not hearsay or eye witness account.
In fact, I'd find you small thing if you share with the class. 😅
Because objectively they are. You people act like there's no data on this even in cultures that are supposedly egalitarian.
Quite frankly, the women who will; take your last name, birth & raise ur children, do the disproportionate share of homemaking, pay 50%+ of household costs, satisfy ur sexual needs on demand, put their own needs last are in the majority.
As a man, you’re spoilt for choice. Lol
Kerygma (Lyrical Theology) from Outburst Music Group is the best Christian album I've ever listened to.
