PASTOR WALSH'S STRATEGY - FINAL STRIKE

STRIKE THREE - ALL THAT GLITTERS ... This is the final part of Pastor Walsh's Strategy. In the previous episode, Kofi Adu had succeeded in deceiving his church members and head pastor that he had truly repented. But, as greed dictated, he had to set up his own church and get all the tithe and offerings for himself. Let's see how it ended for Kofi Adu.  A year passed. Two years passed. The third year also drew to a close but the money just did not come. In fact, to Pastor Walsh’s alarm, both the finances of the church and the size of the congregation which had grown to a few hundred dwindled progressively. He did not know what to do. He was desperate. His enemies would laugh at him! He wondered why God had forsaken him. Day by day, running the church grew more and more difficult. At a point he was tempted to call it quits just like he had called other ventures quits but something stopped him. Maybe it was his pride. Maybe it was fear of what his former senior pastor a

STRIKE TWO - IN THE MAKING OF A PASTOR Pastor Walsh's Strategy continues here. In the previous episode, Kofi Adu had been struggling to make ends meet: he had done odd jobs to earn a living but none satisfied him. As he thought about ways to get money, a thought occurred to him. Read on... “Kofi, why don’t you become a pastor?” the thought popped up in his head. Yeah, that was a great idea! He would become a pastor.   He could do that job with distinction. After all, all that one needed to be a good pastor was to possess the gift of gab. Kofi had a smooth tongue. He was a great talker. Why? The Pastor of the church he went to last Sunday was no match for him Kofi when it comes to “Yobbing”. And the money was good! Nobody could convince him that the Pastor did not get a good chunk of the weekly offertory. Apart from this was the tithe and special offering. Why? Look at the make of car Pastor Asiedu drove. He would become a pastor too. He set about planning how to make go

PASTOR WALSH'S STRATEGY 1

STRIKE ONE - HUSTLE HARD. In the beginning, he was not Pastor Walsh. He was just Kofi Adu, plain and simple. He was a hustler and had tried to make it in life in all kinds of ways, mostly illegal. For instance, Kofi Adu had tried selling the weed for some time and nearly got caught by the law. He tried illegal mining and narrowly escaped death when he was almost covered by the pit in which he and his accomplices were digging for gold. Kofi afterwards had a stint as an armed robber. He went on just one operation and after a hot chase by the Police and another narrow shave, he quit. The work was too dangerous. Besides, he, Kofi Adu, was meant for finer things and for a more dignified life. For some time, he did not know what to do with himself. Some friends suggested he should try his hands at trading. He could start with a small table-top operation or dog chains, chewing gum and even sachets of water. Kofi would have none of that. What did they think of him? Such work was wa
