ADOPTING THE CHURCH GROWTH STRATEGY INTO THE BUSINESS WORLD

The business world should take sometime and study the church organization and try to implement its findings into its operation. Every thriving church today thrives not only because of its spiritual principles but also because of its application of business principles in managing the church as an organization. It might interest you to know that the church is 90% administration and 10% spiritual. The church is the wealthiest organization on earth and its uncontestable. But beyond its spiritual ties and beliefs in the divine, one needs to begin to looking into how they are able to maintain growth over the decades, fund mind blowing projects, with people trooping into the churches on daily basis. I think the church has the most unique marketing strategy of all times and its best if organizations begin to take a look into it. Having worked with a religious organization for over a decade, I have come to understand the reason why the church attracts so much people to invest willin

THE NATURE OF HUMAN FREEDOM

By simple definition, freedom is state of being free from restraints. This condition can be experienced by every living thing but most especially humans. Although people have been seeking freedom for millennia, it has not been freedom for all. However, because of the complexity of human rationality and mobility, human freedom takes a deeper meaning and perception depending on human condition and circumstances. Freedom is the ability of an individual to move freely, to act, to decided, to believe what he or she wants, and to freely shape his or her existence without limitations. According to Erich Fromm in his philosophical scholars, he posits that freedom as a concept in relation to human lifestyle has two fold meaning. They are: freedom from traditional authorities and freedom to actualize one ’s destiny by shaping it across time a shape. In his conceptualization, the traditional authority functions to deny an individual’s liberty, personal sovereignty and ability to champion

THE BEAUTY OF SINGLENESS

To be single is to be whole, outstanding, unique, separate and positively different. To be whole you must discover who you are in the context of God ’s word. You must learn the art of instant forgiveness, knowing fully well that hatred hurts the hater more than the hated. And of course you must be driven by the passion of wanting to add value to people’s life. That you are single now does not mean that you are a sub-standard or incomplete being. Being a single is not a curse neither is it a disease. It is a blessing, a plus not a minus, an addition not a subtraction. It is not weird to be single and it is certainly not an evil thing. It is simply a phase of life that hold undeniable benefits for those who utilize it. Don’t live your single years wondering if God has forgotten you or whether you are under a curse. Life as you know is in phases and singleness is phase that everyone must of necessity pass through in the journey of life. Every stage or phase in life has its i

A HUSBAND'S WORDS TO HIS WIFE ON THEIR WEDDING NIGHT

My wife, everyone has gone home. The music is quiet, the celebration is over. Our wedding was beautiful but it is now in the past. We have finished the wedding/marriage, it is now time to build our marriage. All that is left now is the two of us… What we will become tomorrow, starts from tonight. Our life is no longer the same. There was a day you put on one red dress… You looked so beautiful in it. That Day I  wanted to just touch you! We were in the Cinema and I was so tempted. I wanted to just take you inside the toilet and kiss you but I couldn’t. Guess what? Now I have you forever, I can do that everyday. Before I take off your cloth and make love to you… let me tell you few things. I have nothing to hide from you from this day. My phone, you can use it like your own. You can access my facebook, my twitter and my Instagram From today, I have become a child. For the past five years of my life, I have been a man. I wake myself up in the morning, sometimes I go to bed hungry, I

14 THINGS TO KNOW NOW YOU ARE STILL SINGLE

1. Sleeping alone is better than sharing your BED with someone who shares a BED with someone else when you are not around...! 2. Cheating does not mean you have to kiss, meet or have sex with a third party. Once you find yourself deleting texts and e-mails so that your partner will not see them, you are already there. 3. If a man is crazy about you, pray he does not get well, if he is getting well, know that another woman is giving him some tablets. 4. First love may not die, but true love can bury it. 5. If you still believe "LOVE IS BLIND" then I know for sure MARRIAGE WILL OPEN IT FOR YOU. 6. A woman's beautiful face attracts a flirt; A woman's beautiful heart attracts a lover; A woman's beautiful character attracts a man. 7. Never you fall in love because you are lonely, fall in love because you are ready. 8. A blessed water is better than a cursed fried rice. A Godly poor man is far much better than an angry rich man in marriage. 9. I wil

OVERCOMING LONELINESS

One of the common plagues among youths and singles, which is responsible for why many rush into relationships most of which end up in regret, is loneliness. In an attempt to alleviate this plague, some have been pressured into decisions that have ruined their destinies. Everyone, including myself, at one time or another has had to deal with loneliness. But the good news is, you can overcome it rather than it overcoming you! So, the earlier you learn how to overcome it the better.  Let me state clearly here from the outset that loneliness is completely different from being alone. You could be alone without being lonely. Loneliness is the awareness that you lack meaningful contact with others. It involves a feeling of inner emptiness which can be accompanied by discouragement, sadness, a sense of isolation, restlessness and an intense desire to be wanted and needed by someone. The American Heritage Dictionary defines loneliness a state of one being “ Without companions; being

10 Important Points every undergraduates, Graduates and NYSC Youths should take serious in Life

Connection (the easiest way).  The connection can be through man, or through a supreme being (based on your believe). And we Christians believe in God, in Jesus as his son. You can have God, but no man to connect you, and God may decide to ignore you, to train you in hard times, and later to surprise you when you have lost hope. (That’s actually my story). Good Academic Result and hard work.  So many firms in Nigeria that pays well, always stick to minimum requirement of Second class Upper before giving you an opportunity to be interviewed. And if you have second class lower, you are on your own. Except you have a man connection to that company, or divine  connection. (Because there are staffs in Oil companies with second class lower and  even third class). But don’t be lazy as a student because of it. Graces are not the same. Everyone’s luck is not the same. Opportunities you got during NYSC and your NYSC location .  Now, let me talk more on number three above

COMMANDING FOLLOWERS

The new psychology of leadership pulls its focus on social processes. It explicitly looks at the involvement of followers in the leadership. This psychology of leadership operates on four rules that make for its effectiveness and they are: The rule of being in group prototype: This is essentially about the leader being one of us. Being one of us means more than just being a member of a currently salient social category. It’s explicitly exemplifying what it means to be us, what makes us us, also what makes us different from them. Every group compares itself in some way to another group, any person who is going to be that prototypical group member needs to be perceived to be most like us and most not like them if they are going to occupy that position of being one of us. Leaders are influential when they are most like us (group), least like them (other groups), and adaptable to changes in group identity. When followers have a leader who is prototypical of the group, this enhances
