The Story of Son Shine

The Story of Son Shine

On Thursday, June 17, 2004, the very first edition of Son Shine was emailed to less than 70 people of various nationalities. It was titled “The 38 Factor” and told the story of a woman who married at the age of 38 and gave her testimony in a church in Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria, with tears rolling down her cheeks. Her family and friends had written off the possibility of her ever getting married and even when she did, she almost lost the first child whom she was clutching.

Since then, Son Shine has been emailed weekly (often on Thursday) to encourage the hopeless, tell of the extraordinary power of the Almighty God, give account of the triumph of faith and the interventions of God in the affairs of men, focus on various issues of life, highlight mysterious happenings in lives, and speak of courage in the face of odds…

Cushioning Cush
(When Unlikely
Candidates Soar)

He was born cursed!

Noah had done the perfect, the expected, the usual.

A father wallowing in self-inflicted disgrace required a scapegoat, and Ham offered his neck.

He ought to have known, that when a man attested by God to be “just” and “perfect in his generation” (Genesis 6: 9), slides in the course of a new project in productivity, the fall is unimaginable, often too costly to imagine.

And Ham learnt a lesson on when not to look, even at an obvious spectacle. There was no asking why he did it. But he did.

By the time he saw his brothers refusing to bite the bait by taking a peep, he couldn’t have known what a father roused from stupor was going to do.
