Marvelous Monday with Dr. Shirley McKellar and Bishop L.J. Guillory is always the way to start the week!   In 2016 we will make some important decisions about the direction of our country and the lives of American people and families.  It is our civic responsibility to stay informed on the issues, pay close attention to the actions and decisions of our elected officials,  get to know the people who are running for office and educate ourselves and others about the importance of VOTING!  Let's get moving in the right direction for 2016, starting right here on Marvelous Monday!

Show your support for Dr. Shirley McKellar in her run for US Congress to send Louie Gohmert packing and give REAL representation to the good people of the First District in Texas!

Pastor A.F. Riggins is BACK, and he is ready to Rap It Up LIVE with you every Sunday night at 8pm on BlogTalkUSA!  And, he's back with a bang, asking the question "Do any of the republican presidential candidates have a clue when it comes to foreign policy?"  John Kasich has stated that when "he is president" he will add new agency to the federal government. The details of this agency are interesting, to say the least. Ted Cruz has made no bones about the fact that he believes we should only allow into the country the "proven Christian" Syran refugees (who are fleeing the brutality of ISIS)!  Then we have Ben Carson stating random rumors from right wing extremist websites, like "China has boots on the ground in Syria',  as though that claim is anything more than nonsense!  Of course when the time came to substantiate the claim his campaign put out a statement which was the equivelent of "Just Kidding!"  We are in a dangerous time and America needs a serious person to lead us as we set the right example for the world by chosing the right path to head into the future.  Has anyone in the GOP field of candidates given any indication that they might be the right person for the task at hand? Join Pastor A.F. Riggins at (347)855-8118 and share your thoughts on the foreign policy views of the GOP field of 2016 presidential candidates!

Some would have you believe that women are the weaker vessel. Granted, some of us may be less physically endowed than some men, but weaker vessel? I cannot agree with that label. Women have made history by showing their strength during challenging times. Often times, it only took one woman to influence a movement or create a world of change for those around her and for generations to come. This strength often comes in times of oppression or as a means of survival. I think of women like Helen Keller, Rosa Parks, Malala and even Oprah Winfrey who broke the mold of ‘normal’ and created immeasurable opportunities for women today. This act of breaking molds, knocking down limitations, and creating opportunities extends even into the military, where women make up nearly 14.5% of the Armed Forces. Women like Cathay Williams broke down barriers that prohibited women from enlisting into the Armed Forces, although she had to pose as a man to get into the Army. Once she was in, however, she broke down the stereotypes that women were not capable of serving in the military. Over time, women have proven themselves to be invaluable members of the Armed Forces. Black women, who have been among the last ethnic/gender group to make significant strides in the military, continue to show themselves worthy of the accolades enjoyed by their male counterparts over the years. These women were among the ‘firsts,’ creating opportunities for generations of Black women, like us, to come behind them and enjoy successful military careers.
