Last week we began to exam Romans 10:9-10 and we discussed the importance of not only believing in JESUS but also confessing JESUS. As we go back there this week, we will focus on who is this JESUS that we are confessing. The scriptures teach us not to just confess JESUS, but to confess the […]

Confessing one’s sins is mentioned in the Bible and Christians are encouraged to do so. 1 John 1:9 reads as such: “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, […]

A few summers back, I received my Master’s Degree and a few days later, I accepted a minimum wage job in a warehouse out of necessity. At the time, I just knew that I would not be working there that long. I figured I would be there two weeks max and then back to being […]

Offend Offenses |The Race Problem| @coachdpolite @trackstarz

A few weeks ago in The Race Problem series, I stated, “The willingness to engage other cultures and races is a step in the right direction as we navigate the race problem in this country or in your organization.” I truly stand by that statement, but there is a way to go about that engagement. […]

Before I dive deeper into this topic, I think it’s right that I provide a little context. I grew up in eastern North Carolina in a predominately white area. I went to a predominately white high school. When I graduated in the year 2002, we were still voting for senior superlatives according to race. Instead […]

A few months ago I watched CNN’s documentary series “The Sixties.” During that time in the United States of America the atmosphere was thick with conversations, thoughts, and feelings on race. That decade is marred with the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King Jr., as all three were deeply woven […]
