By Olusola Adeyegbe There is a question that has sat quietly at the edge of many conversations for a long time, one that most people feel but few are willing to ask directly. When we look at the practices, knowledge systems, and spiritual expressions of African traditional life and instinctively recoil, labelling them as dark, […]

By Olusola Adeyegbe I came across a video recently that stopped me in my tracks. It raised a question so fundamental that I felt compelled to share it and invite your honest reflection. The story goes like this. A group of kidnappers wrote to a church, threatening to attack. On the appointed day they arrived […]

By Olusola Adeyegbe There is a quiet shift happening in ordinary life that many people feel but struggle to name. Life is not necessarily collapsing, yet it no longer feels light. The effort required to maintain a basic standard of living now feels disproportionately high, both financially and emotionally, and simply getting through a normal […]

By Olusola Adeyegbe Nineteen years ago today, on Friday the 1st of June 2007, I published my very first blog post on a platform I called Spiritual Activism. The words were simple, the audience was unknown, and the reach was modest. But the conviction behind those words was real. I wrote about gratitude, about perspective, […]

By Olusola Adeyegbe Laws change. Cultures shift. What one generation outlaws, the next celebrates. But the Laws of Nature moves to a different rhythm entirely, unhurried, unbothered by opinion polls or parliamentary majorities. It simply is. And it is against that adamantine, quieter standard that the question of same-sex intimacy deserves to be honestly examined. […]

By Olusola Adeyegbe When is the right time? It is the question every courting heart eventually faces, and almost everyone answers it too quickly. Not by the calendar. Not by how long two people have known each other. Not by social status or the silent pressure of what others seem to be doing. These are […]

By Olusola Adeyegbe Recent de-classifications of more than 160 U.S. government files on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena have once again revived global fascination with UFOs, extraterrestrial life, and the possibility of contact with non-human intelligence. What is often overlooked, however, is that official investigations into such phenomena have been ongoing in various forms since the 1940s. […]

By Olusola Adeyegbe There are seasons in life when everything feels like it is turning against you. Doors that once opened easily begin to resist. People you trusted grow distant. Effort increases, yet results shrink. Quietly, a question forms: am I going through trials, or has my fortune changed for the worse? It is a […]

By Olusola Adeyegbe I have noticed something curious about anxiety. It rarely announces itself as anxiety. It shows up dressed as responsibility. It feels like planning. Like foresight. Like being “on top of things.” But if you watch it closely, it is often just the mind living in a tomorrow that has not arrived… and […]

By Olusola Adeyegbe There was a time in my life when a bottle of stout and I were on first-name terms. Not acquaintances. Not casual friends. No. We were committed. Consistent. Almost contractual. I would walk into a restaurant and, without a word from me, the waiters would nod knowingly and bring my usual… as […]
