My name is Chinecherem Chima. I was born in Abia State, Nigeria, alongside my twin brother, Chinonso Chima. Though we were born in Abia, our roots trace back to Ebonyi State, our ancestral home.
My childhood was a mix of play, exploration, imagination—and the occasional fight. I wasn’t particularly interested in academics. My grades were poor, to say the least. But in Primary Five, something shifted. I began to pay attention. I started trying. And just like that, my grades improved drastically. That experience taught me something I still carry with me today: growth is possible the moment we decide to care.

In secondary school, I rose to become one of the top five students in each class. But like many young people, I was still unsure about my path in life. One week I wanted to be an engineer, the next a doctor, then maybe a banker. I was searching for direction, something that truly resonated with my soul.
Then, in my late teens, something happened that changed everything.

I had a spiritual encounter; an epiphany—during a camp meeting organized by the Scripture Union of Nigeria. It was facilitated by my foremost mentor, Sir Friday John. That encounter awakened something deep within me. I couldn’t fully explain it, but I knew I was called to teach, guide, and mentor. My soul had spoken, and I could not unhear it.

From that moment, I developed an intense interest in purpose and personal leadership. I began to devour books. The first book that lit the fire was In Pursuit of Purpose by Dr. Myles Munroe. That book didn’t just inspire me, it set my soul ablaze. I went on to read about leadership, sex, marriage, money, national transformation, anything that could equip me to build and lead a tribe of purpose-driven world-changers.
After my WAEC exams, Sir Friday advised me to find a church with a vibrant teens ministry where I could serve and grow. I took his advice and joined the Assemblies of God Church, 222 Clifford Road, Aba. I became part of the teens church and served in multiple departments, drama, choir, ushering, and the prayer squad. I also enrolled in the baptismal class, passed the test, and was baptized by water.

Soon, I began to take on leadership responsibilities. During one of our leadership night vigils, I taught on the subject of sex. The feedback was overwhelming, and I was invited to share the message again during a teens church service. That moment marked a turning point—I was seen as a rising leader and was entrusted with more teaching opportunities.
Eventually, I was appointed as the Teens President after the former leader relocated abroad. I led with passion, courage, and humility. It wasn’t always easy, I was stretched and made uncomfortable, but I grew.

Then I met a man who brought even more clarity and direction to my passion: Dr. Anya Oko. He became the mentor and role model I had long prayed for. I lived with him and his family and became an active member of his church, Royalty Assembly. I attended every leadership meeting, workshop, and relationship seminar I could. I was being molded into the kind of leader who could raise a generation of purpose-driven young people.
That fire stayed with me through university. During my college days, I served as the student pastor of our campus fellowship and played a vital role in our local church in Umuahia. My life revolved around purpose, service, and transformation.
But after graduation, life took an unexpected turn.
I stumbled upon books and videos that made me question my faith. Gradually, I let go of everything I once held dear. The fire began to fade. My passion dimmed. I became focused on one thing: survival. I needed a job. I needed income. I wanted to be comfortable.
Eventually, I secured a role as a Quality Assurance Officer at Promasidor Nigeria. It was a good job. It paid the bills. But inside, I felt empty. I lived in quiet conflict—comfortable on the outside, yet restless within.

Then came another epiphany.
Something in me woke up again. The memories returned. The fire reignited. I remembered why I was here. I picked up my pen again. I began writing and teaching again, about purpose, relationships, and national transformation. The hunger to make a difference came back stronger than ever.
That’s what led to the launch of this website.
This blog is more than a personal platform, it’s a home for my thoughts, my journey, my convictions. A place to serve. To speak life. To awaken others. To help people live purposefully, love deeply, and lead boldly.
I don’t have all the answers. But I have a fire in my soul. And I’ve come to believe that when you follow that fire, you become a torch for others.

Welcome to my journey.
Welcome to this space.
Let’s walk this path together, as you awaken to your own calling and step fully into the life you were born to live.
