An unusual title The Enemy Within is yet another mind-boggling
piece by Oluwakemi Ola-Ojo. In this book, she draws attention to
how our success and/or advancement in life is sometimes impeded or
terminated by persons with whom we share close relationships and,
by circumstances of life, which are sometimes hereditary or brought
upon us by our acts of commission or omission. Oluwakemi Ola-Ojo
takes the discourse from close families such as siblings, parents
and spouses to extended relationships such as in-laws, colleagues
and bosses in the workplace as well as neighbours and leaders in
the nation. The book also explores the effect of such conditions as
sickness and poverty as they impact on the human life but concludes
that of all of these persons or conditions, the greatest enemy to
be conquered is 'self'. A very interesting and highly educative
book that cuts across gender, age and status It comes highly
recommended.
ABC of Place and Things in the Bible Child's Workbook (Age 9-10) is
a work tool that comes as a complimentary companion to the book,
ABC of People and Things in the Bible. It is an interactive manual
designed to assist the child's learning, by providing him/her the
opportunity to read and to commit to memory, the contents of the
book. The workbook also helps to improve the child's writing and
drawing skills, and gives him/her creative ability in any or all of
these areas while having fun in the process. There is no doubt that
the workbook is a practical aid to learning for 9-10year olds. It
therefore comes highly recommended.
ABC of Places and Things in the Bible (Age 9-10) is the second in a
series of Kiddies books specifically designed and written by
Oluwakemi Ola-Ojo for children of elementary school age. The book
comes as a sequel to ABC of People and Things in the Bible (Age
6-8). It seeks to bridge the gap between parents desire to educate
their children on basic Bible teachings and the ability to pass the
information to children of such tender ages in a way they would
understand and retain, and in addition, in a manner that will make
a positive impact on them. Like the first in the series, the book
offers a highly efficient way of teaching 9-10 year-olds the Bible
in a friendly and educative manner. Using the letters of the
English alphabet, Oluwakemi Ola-Ojo details key places and things
in the Bible, to teach children historical and geographical
landmarks of interest as well as objects of significance, not only
in ancient biblical times, but also in present day 21st Century.
The book will definitely stir up the imagination of every child
This is a timeless book for men of all generations. It is very
pragmatic, informative and honest in its outlook and aims to be
some resource of great support and guidance to fathers specifically
and men in general. It tackles such issues as showing favouritism,
unconditional love, keeping pledges, providing for the family,
building an altar of worship, obedience to God's voice and the
importance of leadership in the home among others. It is a very
good indicator for men who want to ensure that peace, love and
orderliness reign supreme in their homes and all other endeavours
of life they are involved in. It is by no means exhaustive in its
nature but acts as a pointer to the ageless truths found in the
Bible. It challenges men to be all that they can be for the good of
the society they live in and most of all the best fathers any
children may ever desire to have. It is based on some Biblical
characters, all of whom are very different one from the other with
their flaws and areas of excellence in order that the good father
today might eschew their short-comings and pursue those aspects of
these biblical characters that are worthy. To ensure that fathers
continually transform their lives, there is an accompanying
workbook to stimulate them and to keep the nuggets found in this
book close to their hearts which in turn reflects in the way they
live their lives.
This is the workbook that is accompanies the Good Dads, Bad Dads

specifically and men in general in their spirit, soul and body. It
also aims to ensure that fathers continually transform their lives
by keeping the nuggets found in the main book close to their hearts
which in turn reflects in the way they live their lives. There are
lots of practical exercises within the book to keep the reader
focused on the matter at hand. These include questions to challenge
their actions, inactions, reactions and their ways of thinking;
action steps to take as guide to remedy situations that make
fathers less than they ought to be; inspirational words of
encouragement and prayer points to mention but a few.
According to the United Nations demographic statistics, the global
youth population, ranging in age from 15 to 24 years, today stands
at more than 1.5 billion, representing about 22 percent or a fifth
of the world s 6.8 billion people inhabiting the earth. In
developing nations where a greater number of this group resides,
the youth population sometimes gets as high as 60% or more of the
total population of such nations Since it is also globally accepted
that the youth of any nation forms the strength of that nation,
economically, militarily and/or otherwise, it is imperative that
this group of people cannot be overlooked.It is against this
backdrop that the book, LET S REASON TOGETHER YOUTH S A-Z is a
timely one that is set to address the various issues that affect
young people as well as their vision and aspirations. Since the
primary goal of young people is to live full lives in their
societies, this book examines specific elements that would help
them in this process. It covers a wide range of issues from the
sublime such as anger, drugs, examination, homosexuality, jealousy
and rejection to the seemingly mundane such as growth, ignorance
and youth etc.Oluwakemi Ola-Ojo has written from her wealth of
experience both in the medical field as well as from a spiritual
point of view and it is evident that a lot of research work was put
into writing this book.Irrespective of your age and/or religious
persuasion, this book will inform and guide you. I recommend it to
youths as well as parents and every person working with young
people i.e. Sunday school teachers, youth leaders and pastors and
social workers.
