Lets Face It W/ Wil Strayhorn & Friends

So many people in life are stuck on the “why”: Alex Bratty was a superstar in the public-opinion polling field. One of the youngest partners ever in a prestigious Washington research firm, her job was to listen to people and find out what they think and how they feel. She tuned into their emotional responses to get deeply in touch with their "whys" in life. During those 15 years, as she was rising to the very top of her field, she wasn't listening to her own inner voice to discover her true emotions, to pay attention to her deepest desires and to understand why she was so miserably stuck in her own life! Through tremendous trial and error, she finally found her way. And now she's giving other people the shortcut--through her remarkable book From Chaos to Clarity: Getting Unstuck & Creating a Life You Love--the essential quick-start guide to getting your life back on track. A very talented Hip Hop Artist, “SnoodLovah” was voted Best Female Composer and Recording Artist for the year 2014

Henry E. Felder’s study of financial patterns within Black Christian places of worship reported that donations made to Christian ministries were around $508 per year, per person, in 2009. Tyler Media Services estimated that Black churches received revenue of $17 billion in 2006 alone.

Many ministers today want to live like celebrities and they want to be treated like celebrities. In other words, instead of the church standing with the community, the church has become self-serving. It has strayed away from its mission,” stated Dr. Love Henry Whelchel, professor of church history at The Interdenominational Theological Center. Although this study focused on black churches, race does not exempt you from the greed, manipulation and extortion that take place in many churches.
