Someone compliments your work. Do you simply say, “Thank you,” or respond with, “Glory be to God”? According to PF, you can say both, but the real question is: who gets the credit?In this episode of PF Unfiltered, PF, Esther and Roseline tackle a question many Christians wrestle with: How do you acknowledge your abilities, celebrate your achievements and take pride in your hard work without taking God's glory?Roseline shares her therapist's advice on learning to celebrate personal wins, while PF offers a different perspective: celebrate your achievements, but never lose sight of the One who makes them possible. After all, confidence becomes dangerous when we begin to rely solely on ourselves and lose sight of God.The discussion draws on biblical accounts such as Moses striking the rock, Rahab's red cord in Jericho and Peter's empty nets to unpack the difference between self-confidence and God-confidence. They also examine the pressure of the familiar “Do you not see your mates?” comparison trap many of us grew up with, and why trusting God should never be an excuse to neglect hard work.
💬 Be honest: when someone compliments you, what do you actually say? Thank you, glory to God, or both? Tell us below.

Are church people really the worst customers? PF, Esther and Kenneth get into why so many people expect Christians to be perfect, why "I don't take church clients" says more about the vendor than the customer, and whether pastors, musicians and church volunteers should be paid for their work.This is a funny, honest conversation about Christian business, church expectations and money. It covers the double standard people apply to churchgoers, the "earn God's favor" mindset, what Luke 10:7 says about paying workers, and why a $100 cake is never just $10 of ingredients. If you run a business, serve in church, or have ever asked for a "church discount," this one is for you.💬 Business owners: what's the one thing you wish customers understood? Customers: what do you wish vendors knew? Tell us in the comments and we may read it next episode.

Should your pastor be your friend or is there a line? It's Pastor Appreciation Month, and PF gets honest about the things he'll never tell his congregation, and why he refuses to let anyone put him on a pedestal.Esther and Lorraine kick things off with the appreciation question nobody wants to answer: what have you actually done for your pastor? (PF's love language is gifts. He would like you to know that.) From there, the conversation turns serious. PF breaks down the different levels of friendship: spouse, close friends, leadership, congregation and why mutual respect matters more than total access. He also shares three stories: the day a church leader arrived at his open front door in the middle of an argument between PF and his wife; the church member who told him "I don't like my pastor to be normal," and why PF refuses to be put on a pedestal; and a phone call with another pastor that went wrong from the very first question.If you've ever wondered whether you can be close to your pastor, or why it gets complicated when you are, this one is for you.💬 Real talk: is your pastor your friend or do you prefer them on a pedestal?

Why do we cancel people based on a snapshot of their life, when God judges by something we can't even see? In Part 2 of "I Believe in God But I'm Not Religious," Pastor Femi, Lorraine and Tunde get into what actually makes someone a Christian, and why so much of how we judge each other has nothing to do with God's standard.PF explains that God counts you as a Christian because of what Christ did, not because of what you do, and that spiritual fruit grows in stages, so writing someone off at one moment is like judging the sun at 5 a.m. The crew unpacks the biblical line "judge things, not people," why the church publicly shames some sins while ignoring others like covetousness, and the difference between discernment and judgment. Tunde pushes back on whether a verbal confession should change how we treat people, which opens a real debate about the household of faith and Jesus' encounter with the Syrophoenician woman.Missed Part 1?

Is the Bible misogynistic, or have we only been reading one verse of it?For the first time in 25 years, men are out-attending women at church (Barna, 2025). Gen Z and Millennial men are filling the pews while young women quietly walk out, and online, the Bible is getting the blame. PF and the crew dig into why. They take on the verses people quote most (1 Timothy's "let the women be silent," Ephesians 5's "wives, submit") and set them beside the ones people skip: "submit to one another," "husbands, lay down your life," and 1 Peter 3:7's warning that a husband who dishonors his wife has his prayers hindered.From Deborah and Esther to the women who first announced the resurrection, PF argues one verse can't define the whole of Scripture, while the co-hosts push back on patriarchy, translation bias, and Christians who use the Bible to control women.If you've ever wondered whether there's still room for you in the faith as a woman, stay to the end.

"I believe in God, but I'm not religious." You've heard it, maybe you've said it. But what does it actually mean, and is it enough?Pastor Femi (PF), Tunde Makanjuola and Loraine unpack spirituality and religion, starting with what "spiritual" really means and whether being over-spiritual is a thing. The crew gets personal: Tunde was hit and called ungrateful for not standing during worship, and PF shares the overnight service that made him say, "This God we are describing is too small for me to give my life to."Is God more likely to hear you at 3 a.m.? Is church attendance a fair test of someone's faith? Would you date someone who believes in God but doesn't do church?

Should you keep giving when you know some of those requests are scams? PF has a surprisingly freeing answer about black tax, generosity, and the line between being a blessing and being exploited.Most of us know the messages: school fees, rent, a sick relative, and sometimes a roof that doesn't exist. In this episode, PF, Loraine and Kenneth get honest about black tax and "billing," why $100 here can change someone's month back home, and PF's rule that God only asks you to give what He has put in your hand. Then Loraine and Kenneth push back hard: shouldn't you build wealth first before you start giving it away? It becomes one of the most spirited Bible-vs-worldly-wisdom debates we've had, covering stewardship, the parable of the talents, curses and village superstition, and whether it's okay to give expecting something back.💬 Where do you draw the line: do you answer every request, or do you need proof first?

Everybody says they want to serve so why does modern church so often feel like a room full of people just watching? Season 5 is back, and Pastor Femi, Esther, and Tunde get honest about what SERVICE actually looks like when no one's watching.This isn't a lecture on volunteering. It's a real conversation about rest without guilt, why "doing nothing" can be harder than working, and how serving inside a community is where faith actually grows roots. PF also does something you rarely hear from a pastor: he critiques the big-hall, concert-style Sunday format from the inside and explains why he still won't close the doors on Sunday morning.Along the way: the teacher's words that shaped him for 30 years, why he can't survive more than three days of vacation, and a candid disagreement about whether being "good" is something you're born as or something you're raised into.Chapters

What happens when someone checks all your boxes… but still isn’t right for you?In this episode of PF Unfiltered, PF and the crew respond to real audience questions on relationships, singleness, sex, purity, marriage, fear, standards, and the confusion a lot of Christians carry into modern dating.This conversation goes straight at unequally yoked relationships, why “boxes” can become walls, why fear disguises itself as standards, why some people are not looking for love but for a resume, and how Christians keep approaching marriage like they’re hiring staff instead of building a life with someone.PF also gets brutally honest about singleness, male disengagement from church, purity in a hyper-sexualized culture, and how desire gets stirred long before people admit it.In this episode:- What to do when someone checks all the boxes but doesn’t share your faith- The real difference between a standard and a wall- Why fear is shaping modern Christian dating- Why PF says marriage is not an employment contract- Why some men lose interest in marriage after repeated disappointment- Purity, porn, desire, and what people keep feeding their minds- Communication, sex, and difficult marriage questions from the commentsDrop your thoughts in the comments:Are Christians dating from conviction or from fear?Chapter Markers0:00 Adult Disclaimer1:29 Comment Questions Begin3:48 Unequally Yoked5:28 Marriage Is a Boxing Ring8:33 Love vs Religiosity9:04 Standards or Walls?10:40 Dating From Fear12:32 Love vs Checklists14:06 You're Not Hiring a Spouse18:52 The Singleness Block19:38 Single Women vs Single Men22:06 Why Church Feels Effeminate24:34 The 40-Year-Old Single Man27:50 Perfection Doesn’t Exist28:15 Sex and Purity29:02 What Ignites Desire31:06 Purity Takes Radical Choices32:11 Marry Quickly?34:49 Masturbation and Temptation38:39 Porn Rewires the Brain40:44 Sex, Marriage, and Communication#pfunfiltered #christiandating #relationships

Where did miracles go?In this episode of PF Unfiltered, PF tackles one of the biggest questions many Christians quietly ask: why does it feel like we don’t see miracles the way people talk about them in Acts, revival stories, or old-school church culture?But the real answer is sharper than most people expect. PF argues that the modern church has confused the spectacular with the miraculous and in the process, we’ve turned Christ into a dispenser of comfort instead of the One miracles were always meant to reveal.This conversation goes straight at miracle culture, prosperity logic, emotionalism, transactional giving, and the dangerous habit of presenting Jesus as a problem solver instead of a Savior. If miracles are supposed to witness to Christ, what happens when the message is no longer Christ?In this episode:- Why PF says there is a “death of the spectacular” in the modern church- The difference between the spectacular and the miraculous- Why signs and wonders were meant to witness to Christ- How churches turn prayer, fasting, and giving into tools for material gain- Why “come to Jesus and get your problem solved” is a broken gospel- The difference between sacrificial giving and spiritual manipulationDrop your thoughts in the comments:Are miracles disappearing or are we preaching the wrong message?Chapter Markers0:00 Problem Solver vs Savior1:38 Where Did Miracles Go?3:00 The Death of the Spectacular5:00 The Greatest Miracle6:05 Miracles Witness to Christ9:10 What Are We Preaching?13:36 Prayer and Fasting Misused15:00 Selling Miracles18:02 Emotionalism in Church19:46 Consumer Christianity20:13 Sacrifice vs Manipulation24:47 Don’t Borrow to Give27:00 Why Nations Stay Broken30:16 When Church Stops Being About Christ32:47 Prosperity Short-Circuits the Gospel36:14 Miracles Must Point to Christ38:54 Friends for Food40:09 Miracles Without Faith40:40 Hungry for Righteousness41:16 He’s Not an Employment Agency#pfunfiltered #pastorfemi #miracles #culture #prosperity #gospel #christian #church #manipulation #signsandwonders #modernchristianity #spectacular #christianpodcast #transactionalfaith #prayerandfasting #sacrificialgiving #jesus

What if Babylon isn’t just a Bible story, a government, or a corrupt culture “out there” but the very system we’re all living in every day?
In this episode of PF Unfiltered, PF, Roslyn, Kenneth, and Femi wrestle with one uncomfortable question: what does it really mean to be in the world but not of it? The conversation goes deep into Christianity, politics, capitalism, religion, work, voting, profit, compromise, and why so many believers keep confusing Christ with systems that were never built on love.
PF argues that Babylon is bigger than politics. Bigger than Democrats and Republicans. Bigger than nationalism, progressivism, and even religion itself. If Babylon is the world’s system of profit, pride, lust, and power, then how is a Christian supposed to live faithfully inside it without becoming part of it?
This is one of the sharpest PF Unfiltered conversations yet — honest, uncomfortable, and guaranteed to challenge the way you think about church, culture, and what faithfulness really looks like.
In this episode:
- What “Babylon” means in modern life
- Why PF says religion can become part of Babylon
- Politics, voting, and whether “change from within” is real
- Why profit-driven systems keep shaping Christian choices
- What it means to be in Christ while living inside a broken world

Why do you feel stuck? Because you feel like you're not working on purpose. You haven't figured out the call of God. No, no, no I don't give people that much credit. They compare themselves with other people. And they say: I should be here. But I'm stuck here."
That's how PF opens this one then about eight minutes later he says the quiet part out loud: *most "purpose" conversations are driven by vanity and self-aggrandizement.* In this episode of PF Unfiltered, PF, Kenneth, and Roslyn take apart one of the most overcooked conversations in modern Christianity: "finding your calling." Why "I want purpose" is usually "I want recognition." Why you're waiting for a sign that's not coming. Why the ordinary, mundane, repetitive parts of life your job, your marriage, the stranger you helped on the street already are the assignment.
If you've ever felt behind in life because you "haven't figured out your purpose yet" or you've ever caught yourself comparing your "calling" to someone else's this one's going to sting in a useful way.

What if everyone you call your enemy that coworker, that ex, that "village person," that ops was never actually your enemy in the first place? In this episode of PF Unfiltered, Pastor Femi breaks down spiritual warfare in a way most churches won't touch. From "ops" at work to ancestral curses to the witches your aunties warned you about, this conversation cuts through the noise and gets to what the devil is actually after and it's not your car, your job, or your marriage.
PF unpacks the difference between *generational curses* (broken at the cross) and *generational trauma* (real, but not spiritual), why "rebuking witches" misses the point, and the one move the enemy keeps tricking believers into making. The crew also gets into the 613 laws nobody can keep, why religion is more dangerous than sin, what the Prince of Persia has to do with your prayer life, and the headless-chicken theology that'll change how you think about every spiritual attack you've ever feared.
If you grew up praying against witches, ancestral curses, and "the spirit of your father's house" this episode is the one.

Feeling like your life is on autopilot? You're not depressed you're just living the life your parents prayed for. Stop chasing artificial highs.
In this episode of PF Unfiltered, PF breaks down why our generation is obsessed with constant stimulation and why that "meh" feeling isn't a medical emergency, but a spiritual opportunity. This conversation unpacks the trap of immediate gratification, why boredom can actually be a blessing, and how to build spiritual muscle before the next storm hits.

Why do so many men struggle to be emotionally available and why does vulnerability sometimes get punished instead of rewarded?
In this episode of PF Unfiltered, Pastor Femi, Tunde, and Kenneth unpack men's mental health, emotional suppression, Christian masculinity, relationships, and the pressure many African Christian men feel to always be strong, silent, and 'man up.' They talk about vulnerability in marriage, cultural expectations, fatherhood, emotional intelligence, and why modern conversations about masculinity often miss the real issue.
If you've ever wondered why men shut down emotionally, why opening up can feel dangerous, or how faith, culture, and relationships shape male vulnerability, this conversation is for you.

Is the "soft life" actually a biblical promise or a dangerous prosperity scam? Pastor Femi unpacks the real cost of following Christ today.We love to scroll through aesthetics, but does the Bible actually teach a life free from struggle? In this episode we dismantle the "Soft Life" narrative — a modern, consumerist gospel that often leads believers to abandon their faith when real challenges hit. From the reality of the apostles to the trap of materialism, it's time to get honest about the cross.

We’re breaking down why many of us struggle to pray and exposing the religious theatre that keeps us from real intimacy with the Father. Stop acting and start connecting. EP11Most Christians have been taught that prayer requires specific protocols, long sessions, and religious eloquence to be 'powerful.'

Churches used to talk about lust all the time. Now they don't — and PF has a theory about why. In this episode, PF, Esther, and Tunde tackle the conversation most pastors and podcasters won't touch: sexual desire, attraction, what both men and women are responsible for, and why being honest about biology doesn't make you a bad person.
PF gets into why he'd rather preach about redemption than catalogue sins, what happens when desire becomes "inordinate," and the uncomfortable reality that human biology hasn't caught up with modern expectations. This one will make you think — and probably make you uncomfortable. That's the point.
In this episode:
- Why churches stopped talking about lust (and what replaced it)
- PF's definition: "Lust is desire that has become inappropriate"
- The honest conversation about attraction most men are afraid to have
- What you lead with is what you attract — and that applies to everyone
- Practical advice for managing desire without pretending it doesn't exist
- Why God doesn't remove sexual desire — and what He does instead

This conversation gets heated in the best way. The crew unpacks what it actually means to be the church not a building, not a concert, not a social club but the body of Christ. PF argues that rejecting the church wholesale while claiming to follow Christ is a contradiction, and draws a sharp line between acceptance and tolerance that will challenge both sides of the debate.
The episode digs into why church culture has become more about comfort than confrontation with truth, and why that shift is actually hurting people instead of helping them. PF compares the church to a hospital full of sick patients, if someone vomits on you, you don't leave the hospital. You're a patient too.
Whether you've been hurt by the church, you're questioning whether you even need to attend, or you're someone in the pews wondering how to correct with grace this episode doesn't let anyone off the hook.

Growing up in an African household often comes with strict, unwritten rules—don’t question authority, don’t challenge your parents, and always respect your elders. But what happens when you’re an adult living in a different culture and those expectations remain the same?
In this episode, PF reflects on his upbringing with a strict Yoruba mother and a more liberal father, and how those experiences shaped the way he now raises his own children. The conversation explores the important difference between honor and obedience, emphasizing that honoring parents means showing respect and care, but it doesn’t always mean obeying every instruction.
The crew also dives into the realities of navigating cultural expectations, generational love languages, family guilt, and the challenges of parenting differently from how you were raised. It’s a candid, thoughtful discussion about faith, culture, and breaking unhealthy patterns while still honoring where you come from.

If you had a billion dollars, what would you do? PF's answer might surprise you — and then he flips the question entirely. In this episode, PF, Esther, Kenneth, and Tunde tackle one of the most uncomfortable questions in Christian culture: how much money is actually enough? PF breaks down exactly what $1 million can cover (house, car, food, kids' tuition) and then asks why none of us would actually be satisfied with that.
The conversation goes deeper than budgets. This is about contentment, greed, the pressure to keep up, and why the church needs to be the voice that says "you don't need that" when nobody else will.
**In this episode:**
- PF's billion-dollar plan (and why he wouldn't cover the church's bills)
- The math on what you actually need vs. what you think you need
- Why a producer went from happy in a small house to stressed in a mansion
- The biblical case for contentment — and what "God supplies your needs" really means

One word said casually, said a thousand times nearly broke a 10-year marriage. It wasn't cheating. It wasn't money. It was something most people say every day without thinking twice. In this episode, PF, Tunde, and Esther get into the small habits that quietly destroy marriages and the ones that quietly save them.
PF breaks down what the Bible actually teaches about submission in marriage (it's not what most people think), why dismissing your spouse's concerns even the "small" ones sets a dangerous precedent, and the everyday habits that separate couples who thrive from those who just survive.

Should Christians still tithe? And why do people lose their minds when a pastor wears a nice watch?In this episode, PF, Kenneth, and Esther tackle one of the most divisive topics in church culture — money, tithing, and what pastors actually deserve to earn.PF gets vulnerable about his own lifestyle, reveals he works 80 hours a week on 5 hours of sleep, and explains why he'll never apologize for owning a Rolex. The conversation digs into the theology behind tithing — Old Covenant law versus New Covenant freewill giving — and why so many Christians are confused about what the Bible actually teaches on the subject.PF breaks down why tithing was originally about food (not money), why Malachi 3:10 is the most misquoted verse in church, and what giving should actually look like for believers today.But this isn't just theology. The crew gets real about church operations — from a $50,000 emergency HVAC replacement to why pastors are among the most underpaid professionals in America. PF shares why pastoral suicide rates are alarming, and makes the case that the laborer is worthy of his wages.In this episode:• Why tithing as we know it isn't actually a New Testament command• PF's honest take on pastor compensation and lifestyle scrutiny• The $50K HVAC story: what it really costs to run a church• "Serving God is not a sentence of poverty" — why PF won't apologize• Old Covenant vs. New Covenant: what the Bible actually says about giving• Why pastors are underpaid, underloved, and burning outTIMESTAMPS00:00 - Cold Open: The Pastor's Tattoo Controversy02:00 - Introduction: Kenneth, Esther & PF04:00 - Should Christians Judge Their Pastors?07:00 - "Teachers Will Be Judged More Strictly" — James 3:110:00 - The Tithing Question: Old Covenant vs. New Covenant14:00 - Malachi 3:10: The Most Misquoted Verse in Church?18:00 - Tithing Was About Food, Not Money22:00 - New Testament Giving: Freewill, Not Mandatory26:00 - Why Do People Get Mad at What Pastors Own?30:00 - PF's Rolex: "I Work 80 Hours a Week on 5 Hours of Sleep"34:00 - "Serving God Is Not a Sentence of Poverty"37:00 - The $50,000 HVAC Story: What Running a Church Actually Costs40:00 - Why Pastors Commit Suicide: Underpaid and Underloved44:00 - The Laborer Is Worthy of His Wages47:00 - Prosperity Gospel vs. Honest Compensation50:00 - How Should Christians Give Today?53:00 - Closing Thoughts: Give Cheerfully, Not Under Compulsion💬 Real talk: Do you think pastors should be wealthy?

Pastor Femi makes a bold argument: Stop blaming individuals. Blame the assembly line. The men you're frustrated with? Your mothers raised them. The women with "chips on their shoulders"? Your mothers raised them too.

This Valentine’s week, skip the couple goals content. Here’s a real marriage.
He had a full-blown affair in year 2 of their marriage. She flew to Oklahoma, drove him to the other woman’s house, and asked one question:
“Is there something you want to tell me?”
They just celebrated 20 years of marriage.
In this raw and unfiltered episode, Tosin and Sanmi Laja-Akintayo (“The LAs”) share the real story of their marriage including the infidelity that nearly ended it, the five-year journey to rebuild trust, and why they believe there’s “no finished product on the marriage market.”
This episode is not about excusing betrayal. It’s about what real repentance, accountability, and rebuilding actually looks like.
In this episode:
• How they met at a picnic in 2003
• Getting married at 23 while still in college
• The affair that almost ended their marriage
• Why she chose to walk away and what made her reconsider
• The work he had to do to rebuild trust
• Why “red flags” didn’t exist the way they do today
• Why marriage is two people on the assembly line together
