Why Prices of Goods Never Drop in Ghana.

Why Prices of Goods Never Drop in Ghana.

Features
In Ghana today, a quiet suffering spreads across homes, markets, and workplaces. The prices of goods and services rise with frightening ease—triggered by the mere mention of fuel hikes or currency depreciation. Yet when conditions improve, when the cedi stabilises and fuel prices fall, the same traders and service providers who were swift to increase prices suddenly grow hesitant, even defiant. Why is it so easy to raise prices, but almost impossible to reduce them? This is not just an economic issue—it is a deeply human one. It’s about the everyday hardship of ordinary Ghanaians who must navigate a system that feels increasingly rigged against them. Imagine a single mother waking before dawn, holding her last GHS20.00 as she boards a trotro with her child. She has heard the news that f...
Ghana’s Washington Embassy Scandal & The Case For A National Moral Vision Policy

Ghana’s Washington Embassy Scandal & The Case For A National Moral Vision Policy

Features
On May 26, 2025, Ghanaians woke up to the shocking revelation of a long-running scandal at the Ghanaian Embassy in Washington, D.C. The news, delivered directly by Ghana’s Foreign Minister, Hon. Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, detailed a calculated, multi-year fraud operation that involved the diversion of funds meant for visa and passport processing into private accounts. While the government’s swift and bold response has been largely commended, the situation underscores a deeper national concern — a crisis of values that no longer affects only local governance, but our global reputation as well. The findings came from a special audit team commissioned by Hon. Ablakwa months earlier to investigate allegations of corruption at the embassy. The audit revealed that Mr. Fred Kwarteng, a locally r...
From Drought To Delight: Lessons From Football’s Long-Awaited Triumphs

From Drought To Delight: Lessons From Football’s Long-Awaited Triumphs

For the revelation awaits an appointed time;  it speaks of the end and will not prove false.Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay. - Habakkuk 2:3 (NIV) The recent triumphs of Tottenham FC, Crystal Palace, Newcastle, and Bologna FC are more than just sporting victories. They are powerful reminders of what happens when perseverance meets divine timing. For years, these teams endured ridicule, near-misses, and heartbreaks, only to finally taste the joy of victory. Their stories mirror the biblical principle that endurance produces character, and character produces hope. Romans 5:3-4 (NIV) 3 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 persever...

Pentecostal Ethics For Handling Difficult People & Situations In A Difficult World: Fulfilling Romans 12:18

Pentecostal Ethics For Handling Difficult People & Situations In A Difficult World: Fulfilling Romans 12:18

Features
"If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men." — Romans 12:18 (NKJV) INTRODUCTION The world we live in is broken — filled with wounded people, complex situations, and strained relationships. Daily, we are confronted with the reality that living peaceably with everyone is not easy. Some people seem almost impossible to deal with; some situations appear designed to drain our strength. Yet, as believers — especially as members of The Church of Pentecost, called to possess the nations as agents of transformation — we are mandated by God to shine as peacemakers in the midst of this darkness. Romans 12:18 calls us to live peaceably with all, if it is possible, as much as depends on us. It acknowledges that peace is sometimes difficult — but it charges us...
Unleashed To Close The ‘Back Door’: The Good Shepherd’s Approach

Unleashed To Close The ‘Back Door’: The Good Shepherd’s Approach

Features
The church, as the body of Christ, has been divinely mandated to advance God's Kingdom by making disciples of all nations and equipping them for spiritual growth. It serves as a gateway, drawing the lost into God’s redemptive plan through the proclamation of the Gospel and the transformative power of Jesus Christ. Yet, while many enter through the ‘front door’ of salvation, some silently slip away, a phenomenon often termed “exiting through the back door.” Whether new converts, long-time attendees, or believers struggling in their faith, their unnoticed departure weakens the church’s witness and hinders its mission. Jesus, in Matthew 18:12-14, exemplifies the heart of a shepherd who leaves the ninety-nine to seek the one lost sheep. This illustrates the responsibility of church leaders ...

Pleasing God: A Key Ingredient For Heaven

Pleasing God: A Key Ingredient For Heaven

Features
Throughout the Bible, there are numerous principles of Christian living. One of the most profound is the call for mankind to please God. From Genesis—where God commands man not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 2:16)—to Revelation, where we are urged to “take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near” (Revelation 1:3), the necessity of pleasing God is evident. This truth is further reinforced by the many instances in Scripture where God condemns evil and punishes the wicked. Two striking examples are the destruction of the earth by the flood in Noah’s time (Genesis 7:11–12) and the fiery judgment upon Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19:24). In keeping with the tradition of annual themes, The Church of Pentecost (COP) has, by the grace of God and ...
