Your Body = A Temple
Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body,” (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).
And Jesus entered into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats...

“You are more than your hips and your thighs-” These were the words of Cicely Tyson in the movie Madea’s Family Reunion. She was referring to the young girls that she saw dancing at the family reunion. She was trying to instill self worth inside of them. This seems to be the problem with many of our young females today. They fail to realize and see themselves as the African queens that they are....

My rant about Christian Rap
I am about to go on a rant…I am sick and tired of adults saying that Christian rap isn’t truly bringing glory to God. I listen to Lecrae, Trip Lee, Tedashii, and Da Truth and I know these guys are the real deal. They have an amazing lyrical prowess that they could easily be used for success in the secular realm, but they use their gift to bring glory to God. They teach using a medium...
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 says, “For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”
