Fire In The Pulpit

The Pulpit Is Not a Stage—It Is an Altar. Will You Set It on Fire? Preaching is more than delivering a sermon—it is a divine assignment, a battle for souls, and a call to set the pulpit ablaze with the fire of the Holy Spirit. Too many pulpits today are filled with eloquence but lack power, filled with information but no revelation, filled with voices but no fire. The church doesn’t need more polished speakers—it needs preachers who burn with the fire of heaven. 🔥 Has preaching become routine instead of revival? 🔥 Are you merely speaking, or are you waging war for souls? 🔥 Is the fire of God alive in your pulpit, or has it been reduced to performance? In Fire in the Pulpit, Dr. Onkeme Letshwiti takes you on a powerful journey of preaching that transforms lives, teaching you how to: ✔ Preach with power, clarity, and divine urgency. ✔ Pull souls out of the pit where the enemy has kept them bound. ✔ Partner with the Holy Spirit for supernatural impact. ✔ Use storytelling, illustrations, and spiritual authority to captivate and convict. ✔ Engage the unseen help of heaven—angelic assistance in the pulpit. ✔ Sustain your fire for years, never preaching another lifeless sermon. The pulpit is not a place for ego or entertainment—it is where eternity collides with humanity and where the fire of the Holy Spirit must burn non-stop. 📖 “Is not My word like fire?” declares the Lord… (Jeremiah 23:29) 📖 “His word is in my heart like a fire, a fire shut up in my bones. I am weary of holding it in; indeed, I cannot.” – Jeremiah 20:9 🔥 If you are called to preach, you are called to burn. 🔥 Step into your calling. Sharpen your voice. Set the pulpit ablaze.

Healing Through Truth

What if the healing you seek isn’t found in human wisdom but in divine truth? In a world filled with pain, broken relationships, and emotional struggles, many seek answers in self-help methods, therapy, or sheer willpower—only to find temporary relief but no lasting transformation. But there is a greater source of healing, one that doesn’t just mask symptoms but restores the soul: the truth of God’s Word. In Healing Through Truth: The Power of Biblical Counseling, Dr. Onkeme Letshwiti takes you on a journey into the transformative power of Scripture, showing how biblical counseling provides real answers for life’s deepest struggles. Drawing from years of counseling experience, personal testimonies, and in-depth biblical insights, this book equips you to: ✔️ Overcome pain, trauma, and spiritual battles through God’s truth ✔️ Find freedom from fear, guilt, unforgiveness, and emotional wounds ✔️ Learn how biblical counseling differs from secular therapy ✔️ Discover practical tools to counsel and disciple others effectively ✔️ See real-life letters of hope, healing, and restoration Whether you are a counselor, pastor, mentor, or someone seeking personal healing, this book will guide you into the depths of God’s redemptive power. No matter your past, no matter your pain, hope is not lost. Your healing begins with truth. Are you ready to embrace it? 📖 Grab your copy today and discover the life-changing power of biblical counseling!

Such a humble man. Progressive in his teachings and highly relatable with the modern world.
His teachings echoes his books and you could hear his voice when reading his books.
I am humbled and very honored to have been part of his church and still maintain my spiritual life through his books.
He has imparted so much with me that I have practically applied in my marriage and life in general. Thank you Dr Letshwiti. An epitome of modern progressive literature and gospel.

I met Bishop Letshwiti two years ago in Botswana. He was one of the speakers at a MAI (Media Associates International) program. He displayed his books, and I discovered one that really touched and inspired me. The title of the book is Women Thou Art Great. I was moved by the author’s sensitivity to the situation of women. This book gives women hope. It encourages them to have confidence in themselves, to place their trust in God, but above all to be role models for their society. Bishop Letshwiti is a reference for this generation through his leadership and charisma.

Fire in the pulpit is on high streak, learnt to know that preaching is for transforming lives before attraction and perfomance, especially in times where we see such things happening, this book is basically a wake up call to the believer, to the called to always go back to He who commissioned them and allow themselves to preach with power and clarity by the help and guidance of the Holy spirit of God

I have known Dr Onkeme Letswhiti from years back when we were youths in our church, he used to be in the praise and worship team as a drummer, years later he was ordained as a Pastor and later started his own ministry as the Lord led him. He’s been a consistent, author, Preacher/Teacher of the word and also a devoted worshiper who released some spirit filled Gospel songs.

I’ve sat under his ministration several times both as an invited guest in our church and as a preacher at his own ministry and all the times he was a blessing.

Dr Letswhiti is a devout author and inspiration to upcoming or aspiring authors. He has the ability to see a gift in someone’s life and push them to nurture and eventually use that gift. He saw authors in myself and my husband (when we didn’t even know about it), pushed us to start writing, he edited and printed our very first book.

A speaker of note as well, a powerful counselor and coach he is.

It’s great to see Dr. Onkeme on this platform of authors, showcasing his passion for theological education and personal development. Having had the privilege of working closely with him as his lecturer and supervisor, I have witnessed his dedication and commitment to ministry firsthand. From his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees to his Doctorate in Divinity, Dr. Onkeme has demonstrated exceptional scholarship and a heart for equipping others.

His books, Become Successful Today, The Power of Faith-Filled Declarations, and Ink and Inspiration reflect his depth of knowledge and his desire to inspire, transform, and empower both church leaders and individuals seeking personal growth. His upcoming book, Fire in the Pulpit, which is not yet available on this platform, is a must-read. It is more than a homiletics manual; it is a call to revival, challenging preachers to preach with power, clarity, and spiritual fire.

Dr. Onkeme is a great man, a great author, and indeed, in season for the awards! His impact on academia and the faith community is undeniable, and his works will continue to shape and inspire many.
