Drop the Escapist Mentality and Live

on September 17, 2021September 17, 2021 By Brad Bates

We are where we are because God has ordered all of our steps. Every. Single. Step. Ordered and known by God. We are where we are because He alone put us there. Our job.Our home.Our neighborhood. Our city / town / village.Our school. All of this...and more. God ordered that. He ordered it for a [...]

The New #MeToo Movement: Spotting the Plank In My Own Eye

on September 14, 2020September 14, 2020 By Brad Bates

Please, understand the heart of what I'm about to share, and not take it as a slight against a movement that exposed serious problems in our nation...but I'm going to start a new #MeToo movement.

We can't fix others. But, we can address the issues in ourselves and hopefully help others see the issues in themselves by allowing them to see how we confront them in ourselves.

I've got to admit that I do miss the predominantly black church. The big choir, the animated sing/preaching, the dancing during praise, the soulful southern gospel style of music -- almost everything. Yes, it is easier to go and be with people that also love those things, were brought up speaking the same kinda slang [...]

Bastard III (Black History Month)

on February 10, 2020February 9, 2020 By Brian Baldwin

Cut off. That's what black history month reminds me of. This isn't an aim at anyone specifically, but generally speaking, that's how I typically feel about black culture. That's nothing new. I've felt that way since I was very young; way before I ever met and had any sort of relationship with anyone of a [...]
