DATE: 1ST FEBRUARY
TIME: 6-9PM
VENUE: THE UNION JACK CLUB, SANDELL STREET, WATERLOO, LONDON, SE1 8UJ
Life has a sneaky way of knocking people off their feet by throwing before them struggles, hurts, failures and obstacles. The repeated disappointments has a way of changing people’s expectation into the negative and weakening their faith. It is at the point that things begin to spiral out of control, because it is at this point that many people give up. However there are some people that overcome and have faced exactly what you are facing. What does this mean? There is always a way to win. However you have …to discover the secret of overcoming. Remember that your struggle is common to man but you have to discover your way of escape.
This conference has been set apart by God to uncover the secrets to overcoming the challenges in your life so that you can finally win.
Don’t miss it and bring a friend to be blessed.
See you there – As a member of Bright Serenity, I’ll be ministering with the Bright Serenity worship team, make sure you say hello if you come!

Mabel our Bright Serenity Choir Leader is hosting some Vocal Workshops!
Kanayo is a Multi-award winning, Author and Senior leader in education whose experience ranges from being a Deputy Head of Sixth Form, Head of Psychology and Lead Practitioner. Kanayo believes that these 3 elements are the driving force of her ministry and career. D.I.G; Drive, Integrity and Grace.
Having a psychology degree provides me with a broad scope to experience many industries and fields of work. Although, my main aim is to continuously learn and also to share my knowledge and experience with others, within and beyond the constraints of the psychology community. Hence my pursuit to teach!
Hopefully, the readers of this blog will find that it is infested with a scope of psychological knowledge, with the intention of conveying psychology in such a way that it is interesting and understandable to those who aren’t studying it as a discipline. In addition, you will find that I heavily cover various topics aside of psychology such as, Christianity because I am a Christian. I draw both passions together, Psychology and Christianity, observing how they complement and sometimes clash! This blog is where ‘Psychology meets Scripture’.
As well as teaching Psychology, I know God has called me to do something far greater in this world. My passion is for His Word and to encourage others to read the Bible, fall in love with it, but most importantly…fall in love with The Author! My role of teaching is not limited to psychology. I strongly believe God is stirring up the ‘teacher’ office of the Five fold ministry in me.
I’m a doctor by virtue, healing and performing heart surgery with words of encouragement.
I am extremely driven and passionate about getting everyone; both Christians and non-Christians to read, understand and live out the word of God. To achieve this, I’ve created online Bible Challenges, whereby people around the world via social media, read a book in the Bible, one chapter a day and share what they have drawn out from the text. I have numerous Bible challenges, all accessible from my blog (www.doctorkanayo.com) and the YouVersion Bible App where over 250,000 people have completed my devotionals around the world. One Bible Challenge at a time, I aim to change the skewed perceptions of the Bible being irrelevant and to show the true reality that the bible is ‘juicy’, tremendously relevant, fun and easy to read. My one prayer is that my teachings and writings from His word, will touch at least ONE person. That would be a serious mission accomplished to the glory of God!
If you have anything you would like me to blog about, do let me know by either commenting, or contacting me via my contact form.
Thank you for visiting my blog. With love, Kanayo x
