Today, we celebrated the life and legacy of my great-great Aunt Edna in grand fashion. What a life she lived for 101 years, as she was strong until the very end! She was the last of her generation, yet a source of inspiration for many generations after her.

I think this year I'm going to do a Bible study series on the Apocrypha and the need for Blacks to read the books found in it. Unbeknownst to many, Denmark Vesey quoted from the book of Tobit as part of his theology in forming a slave rebellion. There's a reason for that!

Out of everyone casting their lot on how Black folks should approach the issue of economically divesting from certain spaces and circulating dollars within our own institutions, it's clear who hasn't read Black Power. The blueprint is there, especially chapters 2 & 3.

Dr. Nelson Johnson was one of the few people that folks insisted I cross paths with during my time in Greensboro, NC and I quickly discovered why. I'm grateful I had the chance to work briefly with him on the quest for justice. A mighty oak has fallen.

This must be the year of implementation. We've had conference after conference for years, so at some point, we've gotta put theories into practice.

This morning we were honored to have the Top Ladies of Distinction join us for worship and raise an offering for the United Negro College Fund. We are rising to the challenge of supporting our own institutions! #UNCF #hbcu #NewJerusalemBC

Everytime I see the post that says "If Paul were alive today, America would be getting a letter" I think to myself, "And?!" πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™‚οΈ
