As a spin-off from last week’s blog, let’s shed light on a lesser-known biblical fact: David fought other giants besides Goliath. 2 Samuel 21:15-22 narrates these often-overlooked encounters.

This is an excerpt from a message I heard from my mentor, Apostle Emmanuel Iren. The story of David vs. Goliath is probably one of the top 10 most popular biblical stories worldwide, often celebrated as a beautiful underdog tale.

During my final year of medical school, I overheard a friend discussing her 5-year plan.

When I first created my website, I didn’t post anything for over six months. Eventually, I took the bold step of putting up a post – I was so relieved! After that, I only posted when I felt like it, but this inconsistent approach was not taking me anywhere. Realizing the need for a change,

In the aftermath of World War II, a curious and tragic phenomenon emerged among the Japanese’ prisoners of war. These men, who had endured prolonged starvation and severe malnutrition, faced fatal outcomes upon reintroduction to rich food. Surprisingly, some died as a result. This unsettling discovery led to the identification of a medical condition known
