Weekly Update My children and I catch up weekly on what was preached in each other’s churches. This is very advantageous in sharing the wealth of God’s word, especially when it is striking! This week, in one of their churches, the sermon was on how we use divine encounters. It was pointed out that when we are in God’s presence or meet His power, we just allow it soothe or comfort us for the moment. Then, we go merrily on... Read more
MOVIE MANIA Movies interest me very much since they are an effortless way to know, understand, and pick up culture, customs and orientation of people or countries. I take time to watch all types of movies – family, home, historic, western, bravery, comedy, war and valor, but not horror or sci-fi! I get inspired by depictions of valor and bravery, team and groups, especially when I watch them move together in disciplined unity and brotherly sacrifice. I am fortunate in... Read more

According to George Ehusani success without successor is failure in disguise. In my previous article, I wrote about choosing your successor, giving tips on how to identify and select your next-in-line. Once we have recognized who is to follow us to take up our mantle, it is mandatory we give time and take efforts to groom them to fit the bill. Our work doesn’t end with zeroing in on who our potential successor is, but it extends to and continues... Read more
Success and Successor My father always used to say that success needs successors for it to be perpetuated or solidified. According to Peter Drucker, the final test of greatness in a CEO is how well he chooses a successor and whether he can step aside and let the successor run the company. Bishop T. D. Jakes urges that achievement of any level of success requires that we pour it into someone else. Thomas Jefferson declares “Nothing is more incumbent on... Read more
