During the holiday season, there are some people who are struggling to make it through today. They may be grieving the loss of a loved one, spending the holidays alone, be unhoused, or dealing with an illness.

Let’s remember to pray for them.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

The documentary about the exposure of Sean “Diddy” Combs will premiere on Netflix on December 2. It is executive-produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson.

Given how much 50 can’t stand Diddy and roasts him every chance he gets, I can gather that Netflix probably reeled him in with this project.

As a Christian, I understand that we should be discerning with what we watch or listen to. With that said, I have always loved the Wizard of Oz franchise since I was a child. I especially enjoy The Wiz and try to watch it yearly. I haven’t seen the Wicked films.

“And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.”

“I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God.

“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.”

So New York City Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani met with 47 at the White House. We all thought it was gonna go DOWN. Instead, 47 had the White House Press Corps in the Oval Office after their meeting. They seemed…cordial. (Continued)

No more sitting around and waiting for it to happen.

God ordered your steps.

Make it happen.

2819 Church did the right thing. This is a perfect example of Biblical accountability.

Here’s a timeline cleanse:

The sitting President of the United States of America made d*ath threats against Democratic members of Congress.

The President. Of this country. America.

Previously, he justified the unaliving of a journalist.

Prior to that, he insulted a female reporter.

These are dangerous times. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

This is so relatable to so many Black women. I’m glad Issa Rae and Tracee Ellis Ross told stories about their hair.

I, too, had my first relaxer in junior high school because I wanted to fit in. It took me many years to love and accept the natural hair God has given me.

““Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.””

I believe Yolanda Adams lost sight of the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. When deconstructing our faith, we need to be careful not to lose the foundational truths of God’s Word. I understand that Christianity has been co-opted to push racist and misogynistic agendas, but the Bible still stands as true.

Here’s another reason to like New York’s Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani. He says it’s not women’s responsibility to solve the male loneliness epidemic. Instead, he says there are systemic factors, like the affordability of social gatherings. I’m glad a man said this.

“I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.”

Pharrell Williams says he hates politics because when you stand on either side, you’re supporting division.

Sigh…

Gone are the days of Black entertainers like Aretha Franklin, Harry Belafonte, Marvin Gaye, and Eartha Kitt speaking out against injustice.

When money talks…you know the rest.

The statement, “There’s no hate like Christian love,” is absolutely false. What y’all call Christian love isn’t the love that Jesus and the Apostle Paul spoke and wrote about. That ain’t the agape love that Christians are supposed to have.

God didn’t hurt you; people did.
