War Ravaged Heart
There are times I’m so worn and weary, when the harshness and realities of life overwhelm me. When I can’t find the words to encompass all that I’m feeling or experiencing.

When Jesus Isn’t Enough
What is this constant gnawing of discontent and dissatisfaction? What is it that propels me to search and chase after other gods? Why do I continue with cheap substitutes to fill the void?

Conversations With A Black Hebrew Israelite
It all began while at this billboard. Of the HBO award-winning series called “Boardwalk Empire”. What struck me was the photo of these gangsters. I’ve always been fascinated with the Italian mob. While observing the billboard, there was a tall, well-dressed African American man to my left. He says, “Those were the original gangsters and […]
