For When You Are Weary Of Waiting On God
Waiting on God is not the easiest thing to do, yet we know as Christians, we must learn to wait. It is how our character is built, for through patience, our faith is perfected. It is deeply rewarding, yet so rigorously tasking is the process. In all this, we don’t fail to acknowledge to reality…

Acts and The Man Of Faith - What Does Walking By Faith Practically Look Like?
For such a long time, I wrestled with understanding what having faith actually means. I thought it was a mental exercise; that if I focused my thoughts long and hard enough at a desired outcome, that ‘feeling’ of faith would rest on me. What a laugh! I look back now and shake my head in mirth.…

To Wait In Faith?
There are times when what it takes to walk in faith is to WAIT. Doesn't it seem easier to be actively doing something in faith than to wait for the promise? This waiting is not in nonchalance, but in active believing. What if all you have to do is wait?

-

In this episode, Chimdi talks about Jehu and the Book of Kings, Jesus and humility, and the idols that we spare in the process, that don't return the favour when we get to the palace.
-
'You Do Big Things When You Follow A Big God' - with Eniola Makinde
The matter of faith is worth emphasizing over and over, since it is impossible to please God without it. It so happens that there are many misconceptions on the subject, and we aim to set the line straight. In this episode, Chimdi has an interesting conversation with Eniola Makinde - Founder of…

Whose Report Shall You Believe?
It is in the seasons of much growth and much building and much increase that we are often confronted with this question: whose report shall you believe? Will you hold fast to what God has told you? Or is what He said now a faint memory, barely discernable above the contrary voice of your...
-
Before the Lord whom I stand...
In this week's episode, we begin our tour with Elijah the prophet and his famous saying, 'Before the Lord whom I stand...' and head to other parts of the scriptures, where the stories of righteous men continued to weave a tale of faith. Chimdi tells us about this kind of audacious kind of faith,...
-
The Fast Life: How Surrender Unlocks True Power
Today, Chimdi talks about the largely untapped treasure of fasting — and how it’s more about surrender than discipline. In this heartfelt episode, she shares how fasting can become a pathway to intimacy, power, and true transformation — if we do it the right way. With her usual blend of raw…

The Burden of Influence, Widening the narrow and Obedience unto death (Part 2)

-
The Burden of Influence, Widening the Narrow and Obedience unto death (Part 1)
On today's episode, we sit it out with our guest — Gift Ukay — as we unpack the pretty heavy topic of Christian Influencers, the impact they have on the body of believers, Matthew 18:6 and the very necessary boundary of consecration. This is a conversation about how our actions, in our little and...

A Modest Tale
A Modest Tale - Today's conversation features a sit-down chat with my dearest friend Neche. The topic of our conversation is a common one, although it is regarded as complicated, and even sensitive by some. Does God really care how we dress? What does He say about it? Does the Bible say anything…

Manna for the Day
Could it be that God will have us focus on daily bread, a daily dying and a daily picking up of our cross because there is a daily tussle for Lordship over our lives? One day God is Lord, and the next day we become Master, as though God's ownership of us is a contest of wills. Today, Chimdi…

The Man who was swift in Obedience
Today we draw lessons from the meekest man on earth in his day. His response to God's instructions challenges our sinful laxity, and it is our hope that it spurs us to lean into God for the grace to do better. #JesusChrist #christiancreator #christiancontent #christianpodcast #obedience...

The One about Solomon's Songs and Quick Repentance
I peer into Solomon's Songs and rather than being tutored in rizz, I get drawn into a lesson about ungodly sorrow, God's POV, and quick repentance.

Teaching My Fingers to War
The episode about The Promised Land, wedding BTS and learning to make war. I go camping mandatorily for three weeks and I learn how not to be complacent. Here, in the daily hardness, challenges and stretching, I find that God is teaching my fingers to war. Listen up and share!

Exposing The Ringing Thoughts
Do you dare to be honest with God? Or will you put a cap on the lid until your insides threaten to burst open with uncertainties? Today, Chimdi reaches deep into the recesses of her mind to present us with raw facts about controversial thoughts that have been roaming rent-free in her head. She…
more -
What Seekest Thou?
Chimdi's walk with God takes an interesting pivot as God graciously opens her eyes to see the offending 'peeble in her shoe'. 2nd Samuel 6 offers an insight to how Christians can often come to that point in their lives where God moves in a way they don't understand, and it often causes them to…

Mercy Said No...Literally.
A curious interplay of spiritual warfare and God's mercy is the highlight of Chimdi's day, and she can't wait to spill the beans to you.
-
Spiritual Lethargy, Hard Facts and a Rude Awakening
In today's episode, Chimdi talks about her barely-there prayer life in comparison to what it used to be, and how God's mercy has helped her shake off the lethargy. Then there's the matter of feeling burdened and burnt out doing ministry versus working with unforced rhythms of grace, and the…

Stormy Storms and a Tall Glass of Honesty
The art of vulnerability is not a static ability. It can always get better. It is not in the blatant presentation of crude facts that leaves you more ashamed than edified, but a revelation of your struggles that leaves you humbled and healed. On today's episode, Chimdi talks about her current...
-
Love Like A Pack of Cards
Chimdi talks about her difficulties understanding God's love for her, and her annoyingly persistent tendency to view Yahweh's love like a pack of cards. There is a struggle to unearth our deeply-rooted but false belief that God only loves us when we are on our best behavior, and the minute we…

The Pharisee, the Profane and the Redeemed Tax Collector
I open my Bible to Matthew 22 and I get simultaneously awed and convicted. Here's the conversation Holy Spirit and I had about it.

Love In The Wrong Places
What are you yearning for? What are your greatest longings? This questions may throw you off balance because not only did you not expect it, you also do not welcome it. You are scared to inquire even scarcely into the complexities of your fantasies, because you are afraid that you might turn out…
more -
Beings of Extremities
In a bid to live holy, even if it is from a place of duty and not love, we doggedly refuse to accept the fullness of God's love. We don't want to accept the fact that God loved us even when we were sinners, because we are afraid it will make us complacent in obeying Him. And so we chose extremes…
more -
Experiencing the Scriptures vs. Doing Your Bible Duty
Do people actually enjoy reading the Bible? Without mincing words or sugarcoating, this is an unspoken question on the minds of many Christians, and it's more common than you think. There is a tendency to religiously do our Bible duty, by daily reading the word, and wondering silently if those…

'Is Your Faith at Rest?'
Many of us are all too familiar with the daily struggle to believe God. It's like we're trying so hard, exacting so much mental energy to believe what doesn't make sense to us. And so we fluctuate between unbelief and brief belief, and when Apostle Paul says words like 'I am persuaded...', it...
-
'What are You Yearning For?'
For the bulk of us, there's a reason why we first came to Christ, or at least an event that made us turn to God in desperation for a solution, or for comfort. As we progress in our walk with God, there is a gradual purification of the reason for our pursuit after God. Until He becomes the means…

'Lean on Me'
It's been a hot minute, guys! But we're back again with a new episode! It's another raw one with Chimdi recounting particular encounters with Holy Spirit that has helped shape her view on trusting God. How exactly does one react when God literally tells you to lean on Him? Or maybe the...

'Peeling back the Layers'
What do you do when all you know and believe about God is boldly questioned by your circumstance? What do you say when storms of life dispute the character of God as you know it, and expects you to defend it even in the midst of your pain? What do you do when you're struggling to trust God and…

"Let Me be your entertainment"
When Holy Spirit literally asks to be your entertainment, you might be a little dazzled for the first few moments. But that's okay; what matters is what you do with the request. Join Chimdi on today's narrative as she relates her experience on dabbling into the waters of both worldly…

"I repent of being an Israelite"
Trust me, this episode packs no shade on any Isreali. Rather, on this episode, Chimdi talks about how the inherent ingratitude that comes with the fallible package of humanity makes us forget to be thankful and murmur and complain in its stead. We see also why we must remember to thank God, and…

Ready? Set? Faith!
In this imperfectly perfect start, if we look past Chimdi's (the podcast show host) harmattan-roughened voice, we'd get to the tidbits that would guide us on what to expect on Raw Faith Talk. Listen in as she presents, with as much honesty as she dares, the curriculum Holy Spirit says we're…
