Practical Christianity with Adeola Akintoye

What is your reflection for the year 2024?

When I experience human beings I am in awe of Jehovah’s creation. When I hear myself speak, or listen to others I wonder where that voice is coming from. When you open up a person, the inside is all mushy, blood and bones. And yet…Today on #practicalchristianity , I shall be discussing the spiritual and the physical.

Its the 100th episode of #practicalchristianity and I have a good news.

What is wisdom? Am I a wise or foolish person? Cambridge dictionary defines it as ‘the ability to make good judgments based on what you have learned from your experience, or the knowledge and understanding that gives you this ability.’ The world dictionary indicates that the opposite of wise is foolish or stupid. It’s good to use one’s experience, knowledge and understanding to make good judgement...

How do I cope with the pain of losing of a loved one to death?

When we see the world around us - the brokenness, man-initiated wars, the earthquakes, the famines, the evils perpetrated, the poverty etc. We are tempted to ask, 'what is Jehovah God, the Creator of this world doing?' Join me for another episode on #practicalchristianity to reflect on this question.

As a Christian, do you have spiritual pride? A question worth thinking carefully about as the response could...well be spiritual pride.

Today on #practicalchristianity. I shared how I have to be intentional in saying no to sin. Despite the fact that Jesus has broken the power of my sinful nature, I depend on the power of the Holy Spirit to do those things that are holy day by day. Because the result I desire is eternity with my Creator -Jehovah. How about you? Are you still in the flesh?

Adeola shares her thoughts on why our relationship with Jesus Christ is not religion. And why religion is not the basis our our salvation

There is only one body of Christ. Many denominations have arisen since the early Church. Nevertheless it is still one body, with many part. This episode explored the richness of diversity - many parts and the beauty of oneness as believers. Love as the greatest commandment helps us in our individual spiritual journey to see beyond the denominational differences.

The truth about the role of Angels in the live of believers.

An encouragement to use the word of Jehovah God over every situation in our lives. Hs words are spirit and life!

When you have an encounter with Christ, it becomes a personal relationship. No matter how much one hears about Christ, until there is a personal contact or connection, there is no transformation. Christ touched many lives when He was here on earth. He is still touching lives today. Every believer has a unique story of their first encounter with Jesus. Our spiritual growth journey might involve oth...

Every believer has a unique story of their first encounter with Jesus. Our spiritual growth journey might involve other people, nevertheless our relationship with Jesus is 121. In this new series I will be exploring individuals whose lives was touched and transformed by Jesus. Like mine was. I will share why our relationship with the Lord should not be based on our relationship with anyone else.

One of the first lessons I learnt from my parent as a child was to say thank you whenever someone gives me something. As a parent one of the first lessons for my daughters was for them to show appreciation for gifts or anything good they are given. Our relationship with Jehovah God is more than praying for our needs to be met but first being thankful for all He has done for us. In this episode I s...

If you were to be able to hear what thoughts goes on in a persona’s heart, what would you hear?

A person's character reflects their level of maturity. 

Experience, someone said is the best teacher. I will share two experiences that is helping me in my spiritual journey as I live out faith.

Spiritual Maturity is not about how long one has been a Christian. Neither is it about how long one can pray or how many bible passages one has memorised. Spiritual maturity is about growth - in wisdom, knowledge and understanding of the Lord. As a baby goes through different stages of growth to adulthood,  I have realised as a Christian, that one goes through stages of growth. Each stage is...
