Quotable Moments | Beverly Crawford

"It is critical that we place our hope in God and not in man because man is imperfect and is subject to moral failure. When you put your trust in man, you set yourself up for disappointment and discouragement. I tell the members all the time at our church to put their trust in God and to develop a relationship with Him for themselves. Pastor Beverly is flesh and blood and is subject to let them down but they can always depend on God. For He never fails!"

 - Pastor Beverly Crawford, on teaching her members that only God is perfect.

Quotables: WOW from Kirk Franklin

Im back! Sorry to leave you all but I had to take a few days off just to rejuvenate and renew myself. It is great to be back!!

So as I was crusing Twitter today, I came across this one from Kirk Franklin and just had to share with you all:

This really hit me today. I am going through a tough spot in my personal life and feel that my prayers are going unheard. There are forces, or rather trash/roaches, that I have to exterminate in order to get answered prayers.

What roaches/trash are you harboring that's preventing your prayers to go unanswered??

Quotables | Will Parker

"Media has always had an impact on the self-image, self-worth and perspective of young people. It's especially important when thinking about young African Americans because our image hasn't always been a positive one. I believe taht if you are a creative artist or filmmaker, you can get your point across without using excessive negative images to prove it."

Quotables | Tasha Smith & Keith Douglas on Marriage

It's a covenant. And when you get married, it's sacred. When I say sacred, in other words, when two people come together and they pray, things happen. So there's things that God's gonna do for us even more when we make that commitment. And we believe it. -Keith Douglas

And it's a covenant before God -Tasha Smith
