The Girl My Father Never Wanted
When Ifeyinwa Okoye was born, her father, a junior-ranking police officer, vowed he would not use his hard-earned money to put her through school, a decree that did not apply to her brothers. Nevertheless, for many years, she desired nothing more than to be her father's favourite. She wanted to call him Nna, as her brothers did with affection. But she called him Sir. That was all that she could muster, even when her heart tried to push away the ocean of hatred she had for him. 'The Girl My Father Never Wanted' is a poignant account of Ifeyinwa's struggle to hold onto threads of hope amid bitterness, pain, and seemingly unending chaos.
Prisoner of Guilt
Moshood Adebayo is the Strategic and Partnerships Manager (EMEA) at Hemads Oil and Gas. He lost his wife, Amy, five years ago and could not move on even though he sought closure. His colleague, Justin Jones, recommended therapy when he noticed Moshood's performance at work was declining. During a session with Dr Paula Wilson, Moshood revealed the root cause of his intermittent illness when he let out a shockingly terrible secret.
Miracles Everywhere
Pastor Josh and his wife, Pastor Anna, co-founded a multicultural, non-denominational church to be a beacon of hope for teens and young adults in their community. Pastor Anna reckoned the Gospel message was just what their borough needed to restore oneness and love after a mass brawl involving two hundred people. After eight months, the church membership snowballed, and it became notable for remarkable miracles. Even Pastor Josh's son was said to have received a touch from heaven and healed of a rare genetic disorder. Or was he not? 'Miracles Everywhere' is a thought-provoking story that will make you question the motive and authenticity of your faith.
