ABOUT ME
My name is Segun Aiyegbusi, (pronounced, "Sheh-goon" "Ai-Yay-Boo-See"), but my close friends call me "Shegz".
No one and no thing gives me more joy and meaning than my relationship with Jesus Christ. Meeting my beautiful wife, Modupe, and popping out three of the most beautiful and spirited kids you’ll ever meet comes in at a close second.
After serving on staff since 2005 in a pastoral teaching role at Grace Church on the Mount, New Jersey, I am now working as a missionary and pastoral trainer in Jos, Plateau state, Nigeria and am the founder and director of The Gathering Faith Leadership Network, an organisation dedicated to equipping, encouraging, and strengthening pastors and ministry leaders.

ABOUT THIS BLOG:
An astute Bible teacher once said, “The only person who dares wake up a king at 3:00 AM for a glass of water is a child. We have that kind of access [to God].”
That All Access Pass to God the Father is the central narrative of this blog.
Such intimacy indicates that God not only loves those who turn to Him, but He actually likes us with what can only be described as "the eternal warm fuzzies." The fact is, Jesus Christ took our place on the cross and inherited all our junk. In fancy theological terms, it means Jesus stepped in as a substitute and absorbed (on our behalf) the cosmic smackdown God would have laid on us because of sin. Hence, when we trust in Jesus Christ, the Bible reassures us that “NOTHING can ever separate us from God’s love.”
I’m taking God at His word.
I’m also making it my one holy passion and blog-mission to remind you weekly and Biblically of God’s great love for you!
