I think lists are awesome. How would I get anything done without a list? I’ve tried and I can tell you that although things still get done, it’s a whole lot harder. I forget stuff. I don’t do things in a timely manner. And worst of all, I end up feeling a lot more stressed than I would have if I had just used a darn list. I know when we think of a checklist, we tend to think of our jobs, grocery shopping, back-to-school lists, or just things we need to do in our day-to-day lives, but what about a checklist for our marriage? That’s right; what if there was a checklist to guide us through our union? We could use it to make sure we weren’t forgetting anything important, or to make sure we are on track and tending to the things that matter most. Listen, I know that having a successful marriage requires a lot more than a simple checklist. However, I also know that a solid checklist definitely never caused any harm, so ...

Pastor Mike Bamiloye's Tribute to his wife  "MY DEAREST SINGLE SISTERS" (Tribute to My Wife - Sister Gloria Bamiloye) Proverbs 31:10-12, 23, 28, 30 NKJV [10] Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies.   [11] The heart of her husband safely trusts her; So he will have no lack of gain.   [12] She does him good and not evil All the days of her life. [23] Her husband is known in the gates, When he sits among the elders of the land. [28] Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her: [30] Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised. Yesterday, February 4th, 2015, was my wife's 51st Birthday. And this year would be the 27years since 1988 the year we got married, when she was only 24 years old and I was 28. Since then, we have travelled through the thicks and the thins together, we have climbed the mountains and descended into the v...

Understanding the difference between love and infatuation... Do you remember the first time it happened? You caught one another’s eyes, and then you looked a second time. Something inside you wanted to glance a third time, followed quickly by a fourth lingering look. You didn’t want to stare, but something irresistibly drew you to that other person. When you were introduced, your palms were sweaty and you hoped no one noticed the increased perspiration under your arms. Your heart began to race as an exhilarating but unfamiliar feeling swept over you. You were suddenly afraid to say anything because you knew that if you opened your mouth, out would flow incomprehensible babble. The experience was exciting and terrifying at the same time. As the other person began to speak, you felt drawn like a magnet to a steel ingot. You didn’t know her or where she came from, but something about the way she looked and the aura that she projected triggered an unexp...

Mary was in love. He was sweet, fun to be around and so cute! One Saturday afternoon, while both parents were away they relaxed in Mary’s bedroom watching TV. Soon, the television was forgotten as they found themselves locked in a passionate embrace. It seemed only natural to express their love in a physical way. The parents returned home discovering them both in bed. After the boyfriend left, the heated argument began. “What’s the big deal?” asked Mary. “I really love him! Everyone else is doing it!” The parents honestly didn’t know how to argue with her except to say that it was wrong. What would you say? How do we help our youth grow up with morals and values? John and a friend discovered it on Dad’s computer through his Internet connection: pornography. The perversions that once were available only in seedy bookstores could now be accessed for free over the World Wide Web. Every day after ...

Learning how to live a maximized singlehood and to build a relationship that will culminate to a healthy marriage that is heaven on earth from a biblical practical approach. The Bible says that, “a man who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favour from the Lord.” Proverbs 18:22.  But we must understand that the finding is a process and it is a serious task. This process involves seeking and elimination. It takes time and energy. Ignorance of what this process involves is what makes many singles sad and discouraged or rush into mis-matched marriages. The truth is, finding just any type of life partner is easy; you can pick anyone off the street and go to the altar with him/her. But the heart-breaks and rejections from failed relationships are not easy at all. If you must find that one who would do you good, that one who is tailor- made by God to fit you, then you must invest time, ...

1. The Bitter Woman: You know that woman that always seems to be angry at the menfolk all the time? Perhaps she has had her heart broken one too many times, but this woman is always bashing on men and talking about how they are no-good or useless. A man might not want to settle down with someone so bitter as it is guaranteed that when the opportunity arises, she would hurl hurtful insults and intense, hateful words his way due to all her unresolved anger. 2. The Selfish Woman: If you want a happy home and a partner that wants your happiness as well as hers, then you should steer clear of the selfish woman. A woman who is determined to make sure she always comes first would not be able to build a cheerful and loving home with you. 3. The Materialistic Woman : A woman obsessed with material things would certainly not make the best wife. If all she cares about are material possession over family, faith and spiritual fulfillment, then she will not make the best partner. ...

Your spiritual compatibility will influence the quality of your future marriage more than any other factor.  Note: Each year, thousands of pastors and counselors use. Preparing for Marriage as the foundation of their pre-marriage training for engaged couples. Preparing for Marriage was recently revised and updated, and the following excerpt addresses a subject that many couples do not adequately discuss before they are married. No other human relationship will play a more important role in shaping your life than your relationship with your spouse. And yet many pre-married couples make the crucial decisions about marriage when their minds are clouded with such powerful emotions that they find it difficult to think straight. They are so caught up in the whirlwind of romance that they fail to work out some crucial issues before they commit their lives to each other. For a Christian, the most important of these issues is spiritual compatibility...

Woman, be ready to be a wife and mother, Man, be ready to love... I am often asked, "What should a single person look for in a potential spouse?" Singles want to know...and parents want to know so they can pass the information on to the children. So I finally came up with the following list: A woman should seek a man who… 1. Fears God. Some of the ways you can tell if a young man fears God is by his language and how he treats other people. Does he treat them with respect? If not, why not? We as human beings are made in the image of God, and respecting people ultimately shows a heart that reverences the One whom we reflect. 2. Is not afraid to love. That may sound like a no-brainer, but a lot of young men today are afraid of commitment, and the young lady ends up chasing the young man. What we need today are more young men who are not afraid of being real, authentic, and committed to a young lady in a relationship. We need men who are not afraid to lo...

Are you a Christian guy who has often found yourself wondering,  “What in the world do Christian girls want from me?” If that’s you, keep reading!  Here's what I (and lots of other) Christian girls are looking for in a guy… 1. Personal Relationship with Christ First and foremost, Christian girls are looking for guys who have made a commitment to living completely for Jesus Christ. Jesus needs to be the center of a guy’s life before he can take on the blessings and responsibilities of a Christian relationship or, one day, a marriage. This is of the utmost importance, gentlemen.  2. Purity Purity is extremely important. Our society devalues the importance of purity and has set up a double standard. This double standard asserts that it is okay for guys to have as many sexual conquests as they want. On the other hand, for girls, society looks down upon girls who behave in this way, particularly if they end up pregnant. Regardless of what our so...
