Seen at Home. By Dr. Grace Ogbomo, D.C.L. Some of the greatest threats to ministry are not found in the pulpit—they are found in the home. One of the most sobering qualifications for Christian leadership has nothing to do with preaching, platforms, spiritual gifts, or public influence. It has everything to do with home.  Scripture says:  “An overseer must be above reproach, faithful to his wife… He must manage his own household well… For if...]]></description><link>https://www.graceogbomo.com/post/prayer-that-is-seen-at-home-not-just-heard-in-public</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a034228618ba45174fcd54c</guid><pubDate>Tue, 12 May 2026 15:25:24 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/df2f7f_9eea66de37a64670be5977b992e2c845~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_595,h_396,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>graceogbomo8</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Joint Account vs. Joint Value]]></title><description><![CDATA[Financial Unity Is Revealed by Shared Values, Not Shared Accounts By Dr. Grace Ogbomo, D.C.L. Some couples share a bank account but not a vision. Some share expenses but not trust. Some share access but not agreement. Some share a house while quietly living as financial strangers. Yet many Christians continue to treat a joint account as the ultimate evidence of financial unity. But is it? Or have we confused a financial tool with a biblical value? This distinction matters.

Many marriages do not struggle because two people lacked love. They struggle because two people said “I do” while silently agreeing to two completely different visions of marriage. One spouse expected traditional roles. The other expected equal partnership. One expected the husband to make the final decisions. The other expected collaborative decision-making.
