      DEDICATION

      This book is dedicated to my wife, sons, and a daughter who taught me the act of family living and, in the process, are putting gray hairs on my head, bills in my pocket, illustration in my teachings, happiness in my home, and pride in my heart.

      PREFACE

      LIKE THE BIBLICAL ABRAHAM, I hail from an idolatrous family milieu. My grandfather was a notable native doctor and spiritual practitioner. My father was an ardent votary of African traditional religion. My parents never told me about the God of the Bible and His love and unique plans for every child. My primary school Bible teachers who had no living relationship with God exclusively shaped my theological foundation as a child. They taught me only fragmented truths about the God of the Bible.

      As a boy, the fourth of six children, I never heard the words I love you spoken in my home. I grew up with shame, hostility, and criticism, an environment where everyone was good at putting the others down instead of building them up.

      My mother fell sick when I was at a very tender age, which eventually caused a great emotional and physical divide in my family for more than three decades. Several years later, my father also became ill and remained in that condition for twenty-three years. Why should nature deem it fit to allow this to happen to me? I questioned. Nevertheless, silence greets my questions constantly.

      As for my father, before he fell sick, he tried his best to provide for us, his family with food, shelter, clothing, and education within the confines of his scanty financial resource. He would leave home early in the morning (at about 5 a.m.) for work and return after twilight. My elder brother, sisters, and I were at the mercy of whatever moral code nature and our peers could exert on us.

      By the age of eleven, I already formed a juvenile
