OUR SPECIAL MOMENT IN BLACK HISTORY! Yesterday, Bell officially announced the launch of "GOTCONN" a new search engine. She will be the first female, African American to independently launch her own search engine. Part of the reason for this was because she, like so many others had become annoyed and feeling invading after surfing/researching on the internet and all of the sudden unwanted advertisers are following you, invading your searches, popping up in other areas of your life/day. We heard some say, it even feels like they have a microphone in your house listening to your conversation and if you visit certain sites, they then start chasing you all over the place! And one of the things that is also problematic is, if someone other than you needs to use your computer, they can actually see where you have searched. God forbid you were searching them :). We know how mysterious and amazing God is, so I am sure you all can appreciate this....The way the idea came about was totally spiritual. This was never her plan, it was something Bell declares God revealed to her and not knowing initially how or why, she followed the instructions of God and this is where it led her! The GOTCONN search engine is the solution to taking back your privacy and she is here to tell us all about it!

Three amazing people in one show! They all will share how God gently nudged them to push on, pull through, and press on despite adversity.
