It has been a LONG TIME

I know, I know. I have been MIA. I have been so busy. I just got back from a week in Baltimore for the National Baptist Congress. It was cool. Got to hang out with my boys, Pastor Philip Pointer from Va and Pastor Rhomel Williams from Chicago, IL. These are truly my boys. They strengthen me and help me so much. Got mad love for them and even at their ages, they are two of the profound and prolific preachers of the Gospel. They push me just being around them. I also celebrated a birthday on last week. I am now an OLD 27 years old. Father Time be creeping up on a brother. I also preached an ordination service at my home chuch on Saturday morning. Sunday, I had two services. i am still journeying through the book of 1 Peter for Sunday morning. I preached a Youth day in the afternoon. i start a revival meeting at New Jerusalem in Motts, AL 2nite. I really enjoy this revival. I have preached it the last 2 years. Pray a brotha strength and I promise, I will not be so long between post next time. Peace

Winding down from Indy

I am just getting back from the weekend in Indianapolis. I did a Singles Conference for Messiahs Baptist Church and Pastor Stephen Clay. I spoke Friday Night and Saturday Morning. i enjoyed the fellowship. It was the first one for them. I was honored to be the first speaker. I hope that the information will be fruitful for those who were there. Pastor Clay extended the invitation for me to preach Sunday for his 23rd Anniversary. It was a good service. I missed home, but I know that everything went smooth at the homefront. Now I am back home for a few days and I have to go back to Pastor Goodman. I have a few things that i need to get in order at the church. We are having Vacation Bible School this week and our Annual Homecoming Week this weekend. Pray for me. Next week I am on my way to Baltimore for the National Baptist Congress.

Hamptons Ministers Conference

Well, for the last few days i have been in Hampton, VA for the Annual Ministers Conference held at Hampton University. This is probably one of my favorite conferences because of the ecumenical atmosphere, it is preaching and worship driven and i get to see all my homeboys that i dod not get to see on the regular. Preachers have a sorta of fraternal bond with one another, because of the mere fact that we share the Gospel. I have had fun and learned alot. i have spent time with my pastor and other ministry friends from across the country. I have to make a confession. I have not done as much homework that I needed to get done. hopefully I can hit it hard today. Peace

When the Grind wears you down

I have just completed another week of revival. This revival was a special one to me, because I was preaching at my grandparents church. My grandparents have raised me since I was 14 months old. It was just an honor to preach in front of them. The church is a nice church and have a wonderful pastor. I was just so blessed to be home. From the responses I have received, it was a good meeting. My grandfather was the MC and grandma was sitting on the second row with her hat on. I felt like a little kid who used to run up and stand by my granddad whenever he did anything for church. I was a junior deacon growing up. Now I am a Senior Pastor. look at God. However, I did not cover up like I should have this week and today I woke up sick. I am supposed to go home today, but my sickness and the bad weather is causing me to consider leaving in the morning. i am desperately trying to get back because one of my members is having her first Birthday Party. Hopefully, my body will allow me to make it.
