For years, I prayed for my husband’s salvation. Pastor advised me to focus on what was working and remain light.During Anniversary evangelism, I won four souls. Days later, unexpectedly, my husband asked me to lead him to Christ.He is now saved.The Lord made it beautiful in His time. Christel Nadege

During workplace uncertainty due to funding withdrawals, fear filled the atmosphere.But I chose joy. Pastor taught that shining means giving life through conduct and deeds.I remained joyful, ministered peace, and shared Christlife teachings. God used me to bring hope. Rosa Kimb

May was my Month of Shining.I entered carrying regret, shame, and disappointment. Through the Word, I forgave myself and embraced my identity in Christ.I learned that if you do not conquer in the realm of words, you cannot conquer in action.I now declare boldly: I am in charge — by alignment with God’s Word. Peace P

I carried the weight of condemning others — and myself.After the Easter teaching on forgiveness, I repented and sought forgiveness from those I judged.Today, I feel light — free from self-condemnation. My Father is unchangeable in His love. Adrien

For two weeks, I suffered excruciating knee pain. Medical scans showed a fracture and fluid accumulation. I used a walking stick.During Alumni Week, Pastor taught that our bodies are new but we are older than our earthly existence. That Word entered my spirit.As prayer intensified, I suddenly began jumping — something I couldn’t do for weeks.The pain vanished instantly and has not returned. Joan Ndikum

For eight years, I battled a condition I assumed was normal. Chronic headaches and a painful protrusion after passing stool became part of my life.During the Easter Conference, Pastor declared healing over “chronic headache” and “pile.” I received it by faith.The headache disappeared instantly. Days later, I realized the long-standing condition was completely gone.I am healed. What was my “normal” for eight years vanished by the power of God. R. Sonita

There are moments when I’ll be going about my day and suddenly my phone beeps — a WhatsApp message from Pastor:“How are you? How are you and Axel doing?”I respond politely, but Pastor always follows up:“How is Axel doing in particular?”And somehow, he already knows.Even when Axel isn’t doing so well — not terribly, but not great — Pastor discerns it. I truly cannot explain how he does it. All I know is that the grace of God upon his life is extraordinary. He asks the right questions, and you suddenly realize you cannot pretend. His care is intentional and Spirit-led.Pastor is a genuine father. I do not know how one man can sincerely care for thousands, yet each of us carries the same testimony: we are seen, known, and loved. It can only be the hand of God.For eight years under his leadership, Psalm 23 has been real in my life. I have never lacked. Even when something felt missing, there was always a Word — a replenishing Word, a divine reset — released through his obedience to God.I am grateful to belong to this Christlife family. To call Pastor my spiritual father is a privilege I never take for granted. Wherever I go, I know I am backed. His words have carried me through seasons I cannot fully describe.Today, I celebrate the father, mentor, counselor, intercessor, and servant of God that he is.Forty years of God’s faithfulness — and we are blessed because he said yes.I love you dearly — and there is nothing you can do about it!

I am the only son of my parents, with two sisters. My parents raised us well—the best they could—in a sacrificial manner. I received Christ in 2003 and began learning to live for the Lord. I hadn’t known disrespect all my life until I entered the ministry. I was often praised by people everywhere because I was known to be smart, diligent, and respectful. I self-taught my way into becoming an Information Technology professional after high school. I personally labored to acquire five world-class professional certifications. For those familiar with IT, I am certified in CCNA, CCNP, CCDA, CCDP, ITILv3, and Linux Redhat. At 21, I got my first teaching job and became the first to teach Cisco Certifications in the entire Northwest region of Cameroon, earning a relatively significant pay. At 22, I got my second job as a Network Support Administrator. At 23, I got my third job as an expatriate. At 25, I started my IT service provider company, focusing on training and consultancy. All these years, I was highly respected among my family members, friends, and admirers. However, around 2012, I began losing a significant part of the respect I once had—first, for choosing to yield more fully to the Lord’s call. Naturally, many would think I had lost my mind. And surely, I had—for God. I lost everything material, from money to clothes and gadgets. I could only afford a “Nokia Touch,” which I used to send motivational text messages daily to my contacts. Some appreciated it, while others thought I had gone crazy. During this time, I served as a youth leader at our church. As I moved into full-time commitment to serve the Lord, things worsened. My parents, siblings, and some friends saw it as the end. From a human perspective, I went from grace to ground. At one point, I slept on the floor of my office for seven months—without a mattress, just a pillow. My parents were unaware, and I had decided not to tell them. Honestly, I never murmured or complained. Sometimes, I felt I could have done better, but I was more satisfied having nothing yet being in God’s will. During this season, I prayed more, studied more, and continued teaching the Word of God. It was a season of “shame”—you who had everything now had nothing in the name of answering God’s call. I couldn’t go to certain places because I knew I’d meet people who’d ask questions I didn’t know how to answer. I lost my little pride. Yet, I was joyful and comforted by the testimonies of those who heard me teach the Word. The grip of worldly ambitions and human praise gradually loosened on me. Long story short, the Lord who called me has been faithful. Today, by His grace at work, we have a thriving church family, seven books in print on leadership, ministry, and spiritual growth, over 300 songs, and thousands of lives saved, blessed, and prospering in Christ. God is who He says He is and will show Himself faithful to those who put their trust in Him. The ministry today still carries many opportunities for disrespect. The difference is that it is now for Christ’s sake. I believe I would have had more opportunities to be highly respected among men had I maintained my professional career only. However, that was not possible in ministry. The blessings come with persecution and abuse in a manner I wouldn’t have easily accepted had I not been in the ministry or in the faith. Leadership subjects you to scrutiny—even by those who don’t know their left from right. Ministry humbles you and makes you accept what Jesus Himself was subjected to. It places you in situations of ridicule by the very people you are sent to serve and help—all because you choose to live for He who is greater than all. Now this verse makes perfect sense: Luke 14:26:“If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple.” To God be the glory. Be encouraged to live for Christ Jesus daily. — Pastor Daniel Nyah ~ TheChristianLife

My life has been completely transformed through Pastor Daniel’s teachings and mentorship.Earlier this year, I was tired of repeated patterns — poor decisions, business struggles, unresolved trauma. I felt stuck. When I met Pastor, it was like entering a surgery room. A mind-transforming process began — and it continues.I now understand my identity in Christ. I am God’s workmanship, created for good works. Challenges still come, but I am no longer overwhelmed.Growing up without a father figure for over 30 years, I longed for loving correction. At Christlife, I witnessed Pastor correct with love — and I desired that accountability. Today, I live in that reality.As a servant in Media, carrying my camera is no longer a task; it is divine positioning.Under his pastoral covering, I have never attended an ordinary service. The Word brings light and understanding. I began speaking in tongues here, and my prayer life has flourished.I am a work in progress, but I am confident that the influence of God’s Kingdom will spread through my life. Austin Tamunoibi
