WAIT!!! Before you read on…

Consider pressing the play button to set the mood as you read.

There…there!

Phew! Has it been ages or what since my last post? My goodness! Feels like a thousand years. Hope you all are doing alright. Today, I would like to begin our little tête-à-tête with a question.

…

Dear Coffee & Bagel,

What’s the…

Exponential Dreams and visions

Here is a great post to start the post off-

Kris quote about Joseph and pharaoh about influence.

I love it.

Last week, I spent the night Friday talking with one of my favorite fsmiky members. If you want to see the power of transformation then check her out –

Since turning to Jesus, she dropped the international studies and has been impacting folks at Ekei’s Hair Bar…

Lesson 2: Be Relentless

Sometimes when you’re in a dark place you think you are buried – but actually, you’ve been planted

How are you all doing rockstars? Its been a while, hasn’t it? I went off the grid because I was working on this –

Ta da…coming out on Amazon shortly.

It began with an insight on that Catalina VacationI had. Since then, I have been able to put it together after six edits. Keep it in your prayers…

Lesson 1: Leverage Your Challenges

Yesterday was my birthday. I had a good time with friends.

Today, I begin unpacking some lessons that I learned and those that were reinforced during my social media absentia. Before that, I must confess –

I have stepped back from social media and I am just enjoying friends, family, and new connections in real time. Still on a people high, folks. Wooo…

Anywho…back to Lesson 1.

If you have been…

Lost in the Real World

Happy 4th folks.

It’s been a while. But thank God, I’m alright.

I haven’t been on social media for two weeks. The horror!

However, terrifying that was, I learned many things. And many miracles happened, see.

First, time is so precious and limited. I had so little time to do all I needed and eliminated social media to rid the distractions and focus. My goal was to capture and mine the gold of…

No…You’ve Got to Be Kidding!!!

That’s it.

I can’t figure HIM out. He is somethin’ else. Our heavenly dad’s ways can be frustrating at times, won’t you agree Making us wait when “It don’t make no sense.” I mean who does that? Doesn’t it bother you how sometimes He seems to be talking with you about something trivial like He didn’t see the elephant in the room?

Like “Duh” Jesus, hello…challenges here. What’s up with that?

But,…

Do I have a cool story for you!

But first,

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God (Mt 5:9)

Yesterday, I was at Diplomatic Peace Summit.

The speakers consisted of Sikhs, Monks, Hindu Priests, Bishops, the Former President of Ecuador, Heads of various Parishes from The Americas, and one of my friends, Angel Roman,who was representing the Peace Initiative he has been…

The Kingdom of Brotherhood

Last night, I was going through some archives and came across this description of the Kingdom of God that moved me and has since shaped the way I approach life. I heard it from John Paul Jackson of righteous memory on his show, Dreams and Mysteries on the episode – The Kingdom of God. It was worth sharing today.

On that episode, the scene begins with John Paul sitting down with a woman. He begins…

It’s the Final Test. Don’t Get it Wrong!

Reflecting on my adventure –

As I near – The Promised Land – I can see it. I see the difference and I can see why its hard. I see why it’s counterintuitive. Don’t get it wrong.

First, let’s see what you think.

In the Books of Exodus and Numbers, we read about journeys. They are strikingly similar and hard to tear apart. In both books, the people of Israel are on the journey which ends in sin and…

Is it 10 or 11?

Once, at the end of a conference, we were told –

“Fill out these one-page surveys and bring them to us when you are done. Be honest. We will like to know how we are doing and how you enjoyed the conference.”

To be honest, the conference was a blast. I had so much fun. I learned so much. I made friends. And I had a breakthrough sharing the most vulnerable part of my life with a complete stranger…

Miracles on Skid Row

If you didn’t know…

Skid Row is a popular block close to Little Tokyo in Downtown Los Angeles. It is home to the homeless. Tents pegged everywhere, smells, garbage…and then men, women, and families. It is home to some good people who made mistakes, good people with unfortunate stories, and people with good stories who made poor choices.

Yesterday, I saw miracles on Skid Row. I saw miracles in the…

Motown Sister: Musical Analysis of her Leadership Style

Sometimes, you meet people who just light you up. Following mother’s day, I thought I’d share about a woman whom I met and listened to last week. She reminded me so much of my mom.

Speaking of Mrs. Mom, I called and read Thank You Mrs. Momas a gift for Mother’s Day since she is so far away. Well – she sobbed. Scary stuff. But, it made her happy. Oh…and the defense? I think I did alright.…

Thank You Mrs. Mom

I am currently working on my Master’s defense. But, I just had to squeeze out time to brag about the person who has made it physically, financially, mentally, and emotionally possible for me to be able to do it.

I’m talking about an African Queen, Mrs. Mom.

She is one tough cookie. She is sharp too! In fact, she is so sharp you could get cut standing right next to her.

If I told you about her,…

Miraculously Lost in Music

Phew! Last week was rough.

So, I forgot to write something in time today. My bad! I was writing a defense for my Masters and briefly stopped to write about what God is doing.

First off, thank you all for reading my posts. A special thanks to Maurice for sending encouraging words and prayers. God bless you. I just figured if I am ever given a chance to tell my story, I would need to be deeply…

The Best Compliment EVER!

Let me keep it real with you all.

Following Jesus is hard. Saying yes to an adventure he calls you to: saying yes to leadership can be painful. Leadership is hard! It involves a commitment of your emotions, feelings, as well as your mental prowess..

On Monday, I wrote about a crisis I am going through, titled – God is good, my confessions. It was nerve raking. Matter of fact, I am still…

GOD IS GOOD – my confessions

I don’t know how this is going to go down but I guess I will find out.

I’m not sure how many people read this blog or will ever read it so I will take vulnerability for a test drive. Today I want to be vulnerable. To share my trials, struggles, pains…! This is going to be hard, but l promise to try.

For a while, I have been on a journey with God. To discover something. To prove something. It…
