Readings: Jeremiah 38:4-6, 8-10; Psalm 40; Hebrews 12:1-4; Luke 12:49-53 In today’s Gospel, we have one of the most perplexing sayings of Jesus. How on earth could Jesus say that He had not come to bring peace? Why would He say that He had come to bring fire and division? If there is one thing most of us want so badly, it is peace. If there is something we all dread, it is fire. If there is something we all want in our family, it is unity. So why is Jesus throwing this confusion at us? Peace had been very…

It still exists on the map, but nothing of value is exchanging hands.” Stephanie Shaakaa’s haunting words echo the silent suffering of countless couples. We are living in an era where sexless marriages are not rare exceptions but quiet epidemics. Behind the carefully curated social media posts and public displays of affection lie homes where passion has withered, touch has become foreign, and the bed has grown colder than stone. But marriage is not meant to be a contract of survival—it is meant to be a covenant of connection.…
Nigeria’s wedding ceremonies were once grand cultural showcases, brimming with unique customs passed down for generations. Today, however, many of these traditions are fading as modern trends take centre stage. Here are some that are becoming rare: The Yoruba Engagement Ceremony Known as “Introduction”, this was a vibrant pre-wedding event where families exchanged gifts, proverbs, and blessings. These days, it is often shortened or replaced entirely with a brief formal meeting. The Igbo Palm Wine Ceremony In “Igba Nkwu”, the bride searched for her groom in the crowd and offered him palm wine as a sign of acceptance. Many couples…
The winged eyeliner look, also known as the cat-eye, is a timeless beauty trend that adds drama and sophistication to any makeup style. However, getting those wings sharp, symmetrical, and smudge-free can feel like a mission. With the right tools, technique and a bit of patience, you can master it like a pro. 1. Prep your eyelidsBefore you begin, make sure your eyelids are clean and oil-free. Apply a primer or a light dusting of translucent powder to help the liner glide on smoothly and stay in place all day. This step prevents creasing and ensures a crisp finish. 2.…

As children, our imaginations were limitless. We dreamt big, fuelled by storybooks, cartoons, school lessons and the fascinating adults around us. We declared boldly to anyone who cared to ask: “When I grow up, I want to be…” But somewhere between playground dreams and adult responsibilities, reality stepped in, and many of us took a different path. Some of us wanted to be doctors after watching medical dramas or admiring the white coats in hospitals. We pictured ourselves saving lives daily. Fast forward, and we now save files on a computer rather than patients in an emergency room. Others imagined…
