Present Truth | Can Gen Z Really Build Nigeria? - Pastor Debola Deji-Kurunmi | EP 6

Can Gen Z really build Nigeria, and what must they do first? On this episode of Present Truth, Dr Beulah Tokunbo Johnson sits down with Pastor Debola Deji-Kurunmi (DDK), a leader who has worked with close to 100,000 emerging leaders across more than 100 countries, for an honest conversation on Gen Z, nation building, purpose and faith.
DDK says the negative labels on Gen Z are "incomplete but not incorrect": most of them are strengths that have not been well channelled. He explains what nation building really demands, why the Japa wave may be an exodus rather than an escape, why you should stop searching for purpose and start doing everything with a sense of purpose, and how a young person of faith can step into public life like Daniel did. He also shares his own story of hearing from God as a young man.
In this episode:
- What nation building really requires, and why it cannot rest on Gen Z alone
- Entitled, distracted, impatient? Strengths that are not well channelled
- "No grief for yourself": where impact begins
- Japa: betrayal of nation building, or an exodus to be trained and return with value?
- How the diaspora is building Nigeria from outside its borders
- Stop searching for purpose: do everything with a sense of purpose
- The tyranny of mediocrity, and why the president is not our only problem
- Faith and public life: what Daniel teaches a Christian Gen Z
- Prophet or puppet: how to influence culture without being manipulated by trends
- The lie Gen Z has believed about success, and why 30 is not the deadline

Is Gen Z Really Broken, or Just Misunderstood? | EP 5
Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! (https://rss.com/podcasts/the-present-truth/voicemail)
What if everything you've heard about Gen Z is only half the story?
This episode brings two generations into the same room for an unfiltered, sometimes heated conversation about the myths that divide them — job-hopping, "no work ethic," refusing marriage, chasing meaning over money. But underneath the debate is something deeper: a generation raised with more access and less structure than any before it, wrestling with identity, family, technology, and faith in real time. By the end, the conversation turns personal — a complicated family story, a search for purpose, and an honest reckoning with the excuses we all make.
If you've ever felt talked about instead of talked to across a generational divide — or you're trying to understand the young people in your own life — this conversation was made for you.

Would You Give Up Your British Passport for Your Calling? | EP 4

What's the most valuable thing you'd walk away from for the sake of something you believe in?
This conversation confronts a question most people spend their whole lives avoiding: what does calling actually cost? From walking away from a British passport and UK citizenship to protect a fragile, newly planted ministry, to the quiet financial sacrifices no congregation ever sees, to a marriage strained by uncertainty in the earliest, hardest years — this episode pulls back the curtain on what obedience costs when nobody's watching or applauding.
If you've ever wondered whether the people who look like they have it all figured out actually paid a price for it — or if you're standing at your own crossroads, weighing comfort against conviction — this conversation was made for you.

Is Family Really Stronger Than the Church? - Dr Funmi Johnson | EP 3
Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! (https://rss.com/podcasts/the-present-truth/voicemail)
What if the home you're building matters more than any institution you serve?
In this conversation, Dr. Funmi Johnson joins her husband of over three decades to dismantle some of the oldest myths about marriage and family — that a husband must out-earn his wife, that couples shouldn't fully know each other, that church and school can substitute for what only a home can give. Together they make the case that family isn't just important — it's the first church, the place where values aren't taught but caught, and the foundation everything else in society is quietly built on.
If you're building a marriage, raising children, or simply trying to understand what actually holds a family together long after the excitement fades, this conversation was made for you.

What happens when you spend eleven years watching and learning under a man whose vision, courage, spiritual stature and leadership leave an indelible mark on your life?
In this deeply personal episode of Present Truth, viewers are taken inside those eleven formative years—into the lessons, moments and encounters that shaped Dr. Johnson’s understanding of leadership, integrity, generosity, family, betrayal, calling and legacy.
You will hear stories of an extraordinary mentor who knew how to lead with strength, give generously, withstand betrayal without bitterness, and ultimately release those he had raised into their own calling.
This is more than a tribute to a great pastor. It is a story of what one great man put into another—and what remains decades later.
If someone—a pastor, parent or mentor—has ever shaped the person you became, this conversation is for you.

How Do You Rebuild When You've Lost It All? | EP 1
Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! (https://rss.com/podcasts/the-present-truth/voicemail)
Is it possible to build something stable on top of a broken foundation?
This conversation follows one life torn apart by grief before it was even fully formed — and the slow, unglamorous work of rebuilding from nothing. It explores what happens in the space after loss: the people who step in, the questions that go unanswered, and the moment ordinary belief turns into something that can actually hold weight.
If you've ever had to start over from a place that felt like it had nothing left to give — grief, a broken home, a shattered plan for your life — this conversation was made for you.
