Evangelism, Family & the Church

What if we raised the next generation of Christian children to prioritize Love? — Last year, I attended a church after I’d been away for a while.

To Google for Startups, Love Douglas

Writing this letter was very hard for me because the subject is a grant. I know no one is entitled to a grant and grants should be given however the donor sees fit. I genuinely believe a good number of startups on the announced list of Google’s Black Founders Fund…

Some of you are too old to be this ignorant about HIV, Google is free

By too old, I mean older than 12. DaBaby you’re pushing 30! — There’s an HBO documentary called The Legend of the Underground, I still haven’t seen the full film but I saw clips on Twitter when it was released. In this particular clip I watched, an HIV-positive Nigerian man talked about the discrimination and stigma he faced from his family even down…

Bootstrapping Selar.co to $550k in annual revenue and $2k MRR

Growing the passion/creator economy of Africa with Selar.co — The irony of this milestone post is, I was going to hold unto it until it was $1M considering $1M is a “glossier startup figure”, but then I thought, why wait till then? …
