The powerful, viral-before-the-internet praise song ‘Today’ came from a place of pain and hurt and tribulations - and the singer, Pastor Wale Adenuga tells me the story today. 


He is the singer of hits songs including - 

— Olowogbogboro with Nathaniel Bassey 

— You alone are worthy, Lord 

— Lord because of me 


And many others. 


He tells me how he learnt to have faith in God even when he lost everything - and what he thinks about Nigerians changing the lyrics from ‘when trouble comes my way’ to ‘when success comes my way, I will praise the Lord.”


He tells me why he resigned as a pastor - and what he thinks about he promises many pastors make that Jesus wouldn’t make. 


He also tells me about ‘Worship 4 Change’ where he has over the past 15 years raised hundreds of millions of naira for orphans, widows, the homeless and more across several states off Nigeria.


Pastor Wale is one of the best human beings I know and it’s a delight to have him share his wisdom with us today.
