The Grass Isn't Always Greener on the other Pew (The Fly Society)

Hey Naturals!

My apologies but I forgot to post my latest Fly Society articles! As always, I like to give you guys a taste of my new post! If you would like to read the rest click the hyperlink!




The air was different. There was a warmth and lightness that I had never experienced before. As I charted across the thick white lines, I crossed a walk that would forever change my view of life. What caused this change? I’m glad you asked. I will gladly share how my mind flipped a 180, then 360 by the grace of the Holy Spirit.
    The date was July 19th. The city...Chicago, Illinois. The street...W Chicago Ave.  As I walked across W Chicago Ave onto the 800th block of Downtown Chicago, I trekked on what would be a pilgrimage for me...Moody Bible Institute. Why was I here? For none other than the Legacy Disciple 2017 Conference. For those who don’t know, the Legacy Disciple conference is an urban young adult conference geared to equip attendees to be a disciple and properly create other disciples through application and life on life contact. This year’s theme was “Dedicated to Doctrine” which emphasized the importance and weight of teaching and facilitating proper doctrine. In addition to the general sessions, I also attended 4 of the 80 workshops offered, a poetry slam, rap battle, Story Tellers, Rap Showcase, and outreach in community. To say that I enjoyed myself is a complete understatement.

From God's Heart to Yours

Hello Naturals, 2020 has been such a roller coaster. No one would have predicted that these turn of events would have occurred, between The Outbreak and spread of COVID-19, quarantine, curfews, illicit police brutality, and social unrest. I believe now is the time for me to share a word that God instructed me to preach at a local bible study. My prayers are with you all...now more than ever. I would like to start by asking a question, now this question is not attached nor entangled in any theology or doctrine...just a question and I ask that we dig deep and answer honestly. How have you been humbled during Quarantine? And I follow,  How have you been stretched?  In what areas? How have you been spending your time? Have you used it to draw near to the Lord? Once again, these questions are not attached to any theology nor is this article a proud declaration stating that by allowing a pandemic “ God is trying to tell us something...

From My Heart to Yours

Hey Naturals, I temporarily paused my last post because I felt as though the timing was off and did not want to come off as insensitive. After speaking with my family and to the Lord, I was able to see that the recent chain of events has made the piece even more relevant to the body of Christ. I wanted to pen a letter in response to the chaos around us and why I have been silent. My reaction to it all--shocked myself.  After the footage of George Floyd's murder flooded social media, I felt like I did not have the mental, emotional, spiritual, nor psychological strength to deal with it. Not another hashtag. Not another life lost. Not another cry for justice and another confirmation that my life and the lives of those who look like me does not matter. I couldn't take another disappointment in fighting a system that either ignores us completely or presents reinventions of itself as change. So to maintain sanity, I unplugged. I unplugged from the world, all news...

Yes, And...

  Yes, And… Hello All,  Confession: For those who know, I used to be a blogger/vlogger and writer some years back. I fell off and God has been poking and prodding me to get back to it. I have been walking in disobedience and half-obedience, which we know, half-obedience is still disobedience. So, in confession, I am confessing and moving forward. I have decided to re-dedicate myself unto the Lord and have agreed to walk in full confidence, obedience, and submission unto Him!  Hello, old friends who have been walking with me since then.  Hello, new friends who have joined me since then. I welcome everyone who will continue to walk with me through this journey.  One thing that I’ve learned, a lot, throughout this process is surrender. Although I may have walked away from content creation, I can proudly say that I have never walked away from the Lord. I have continued to study and spend time with the Lord and have jotted down all of my notes and findings, per usual...
