A4P Guest: Why are women not interested to talk deep things, always interested to talk the simple funny things? Is there an approach I need to have so that a girl I’m approaching will open up to talk the hard talk, I am not good with the funny cookie stuff! Any idea!
A4P: LOL! I love it! First, thank you so much my dear brother for allowing me to share your question with all my Facebook fans!
A4P Guest: On one of your Tweets, you said, “We have to obey God first before we understand Him.” That is wrong. We have to understand God before we obey Him because if we understand Him, we find it easy to obey Him.
A4P: Hmm, if we could understand God before we give him our obedience, God would have been one of the science subjects we studied in colleges. Continue reading Understand Vs Believe→
It really feels good to be the center of my husband’s attention. I was away for sometimes (traveled to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia) and I’m now here in Maryland.
Even if my Berhan doesn’t have a problem of “workaholism,” his work sometimes follows him home and I don’t like it. He comes home with his headphones on his ears and he whispers to me things like, “I’m in a meeting” or “Just give me few minutes.” And when that happens, it is hard for me to get his attention I so much crave to get.
What was your New Year’s Bible verse you’ve received through others or your churches?
We, the Banko’s family have received a verse on the New Year’s Eve celebration day at our church. Well, I was not at the celebration but my loving and kind husband and kids were.
Every year our church gives a small gift with one Bible verse for each individual who attends the program. We used to pick one for each one of us but a couple years ago, we decided to take only one for our family because we believed that every blessing from God comes to our family through the head of our household, my Berhan.

Thank you for all of you who liked my family’s Ethiopian Christmas Day picture and dropped off your sweet comments. I know most of you don’t know this but my siblings are on this page and they liked it too, lol. I love them very much!
In case you don’t know this, that particular family picture doesn’t represent the whole “Tadess Kifetew’s” family but only 1% of the family. For example, our German brother-in-law, the one we love very dearly, is not in it because he was the one with the camera. All our in-laws, three of our siblings, eight of our parent’s grand-children (two them are in the picture) and around 67 their adopted grand-children (adopted children of my brother, the one you see in the picture wearing eye glasses) were not in picture. I know, it is a very big family. When I manage to get them all in one picture, I sure will post that picture so that you will meet them all.
A4P Guest: Can you give us evidence why masturbation is wrong? When it has been said that between 95 and 98 percent of young men are engaged in this practice and the rest are liars – aren’t we add burden of guilt on the men when we say masturbation is a sin? – – –
A4P: Before I say anything, let me say this: Feeling guilty is a God-given emotion; it is good. It brings us back to God. It is not good only when it has no logical and/or biblical ground. Continue reading Question about Masturbation→
