2024
January 07, 2024 19:41 - 11 minutes - 10.1 MBI have no idea what 2024 will look like but we must awaken to the reality that we are not the same United States of America of years past.

The reality is that our government is in a sta...

Nation Against Nation
December 19, 2023 15:44 - 12 minutes - 11.7 MBRacism is not the problem it is a symptom of a far more lethal illness that impacts the entire cosmos for all eternity.

January 24, 2023 22:12 - 5 minutes - 4.96 MB"Most of life is lived in the mundane and, so a lot of anxiety has, to do with an accumulation of unresolved things that we have. The scripture calls us to keep short accounts, and that's because we have finite space in our brain. Think of our brain as an inbox that only has so much room there.
