Pretty Brown Girl

#IAMJADA – Because survivors of sexual assault have nothing to be ashamed of Jada speaks out and we stand with her. Parents we have to teach our girls about the dangers of under-age drinking and protecting their bodies. The 16 year-old whose nightmare went viral – is fighting back. Hear Jada speak out in a powerful cable news exclusive interview with Ronan Farrow. Enough is enough too many of our girls are being sexually assaulted without any consequences to the attackers. http://www.msnbc.com/ ronan-farrow-daily/watch/ -iamjada---jada-speaks-out- 304563780002 http://www.prettybrowngirl.com/

Mimicking Supermodels, Christian Girls Posting Seductive Selfies

When I was in high school, Bethany and I decided we wanted to do a really cool photo shoot of ourselves. We put on the most modern outfits we could find, layered on the jewelry, doubled the mascara and headed to a prime location—our roof. We recruited (begged) one of our younger sisters to be our photographer. We all climbed onto the roof of our house and she snapped away with the camera. Yes, a roof is a random place to do a photo shoot, but we did it there to get that perfect "modelesque" breeze to blow our hair just right. For each picture, we posed exactly the way we had seen the professional models do it with their lips puckered, one eyebrow raised, hand on hip, and serious eyes. Without being told how to pose seductively, we were pros and knew exactly what to do. We proudly posted our photoshoot to Facebook and waited for the compliments to come in. Seductiveness is the new norm.  Sadly, we live in a culture that "trains" our minds to view s

Everybody Ought to Know Who Jesus Is

13  When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples,  “Who do people say the Son of Man is?” 14  They replied, “Some say John the Baptist;  others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15  “But what about you?”  he asked.  “Who do you say I am?” 16  Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” 17  Jesus replied,  “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood,  but by my Father in heaven.   18  And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church,  and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.   19  I will give you the keys  of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”   20  Then he ordered his disciples not to tell anyone  that he was the Messiah. Matthew 16:13-20, NIV Who is Jesus to you?

What's Going On

I met a wonderful couple walking in the park the other day.  They were taking pictures of the sky and commenting how beautiful it was as I walked by. I yelled, "Its the glory of God".  The man asked  if I was a Christian and I said yes.  He ask what church do  I attend and I told him I fellowship at home. His face changed slightly as to be caught off guard by my answer. The gentlemen and his wife are Asian and he was trying to understand what is happening in the church.  He said, "The people live well and have no need of God; and many are leaving the church".   My response:  "Sir, some people have fallen away from the Lord, but many are leaving because they want God.  True believers are weary of watered down sermons, inter-faithism, embracing ungodly agendas and being entertained.  People are hungry for God and desire a deeper and  more intimate relationship with Him.   His response: "When you read the bible and you don't understand something, how
