Join me Hezekiah L. Montgomery Host of The Man In The Mirror and my lovely Co-Host Nichelle Johnson as we interview, talk, laugh and have a great time with this CONSCIENCE REBEL of the Air Waves.

When the Prophet Nathan went to King David to Rebuke him, David didn't even realize what was going on till the end of the Parable.  God has a way of using Parables to show us a lesson.  Parables are basically modern stories in modern times to make us say Uh ha! Got it.  That’s the same thing Nathan did to our beloved King David.  He told him one about someone who took something that belonged to some else and David got furious!  So after Nathan revealed the truth to the King, then came repentance. 

Wow, that's a story, but it's not ending there.  Let's look at an onion.  An onion has many layers.  But in order for us to get to the part of the onion that we like, well that you like, I don't like onions..lol..we have to peel the skin off, then peel a little more till we get to the part that we like.  Well that's what happened to King David, and that's what God does to us.  He allows things to happen to us until there comes a point where we have to start peeling layers of sin off of us till we get to the real us. 

Join me Hezekiah L. Montgomery host of The Man In The Mirror and Co-Host Nichelle Johnson as we discuss sin, the layer that build and how God uses situations to start peeling those layers off to get to the real you, me and all those He loves.  Are you ready to be peeled?

Cross was 18, a freshmen in college with her entire life in front of her and with one, life-altering choice, it changed. The campus views and the liberating spirit she had just about grown accustomed to, was replaced by the dull images of gray cement floors, painted yellow lines and the removal of her freedom. Her poor choice, one that she fully accepts as her responsibility, landed her in the federal penitentiary for four-and-a-half years. Since that time, she had been on-fire to inspire, encourage, and uplift women; to teach them how to learn from their experience, tap into their gifts, and greatness, and build a business that makes a difference to them and to others.

Lucinda’s work is about helping women live a life of fire, fun and freedom which has led to nationally features in Essence, Black Enterprise, Daily News, Ebony; and radio and television appearances on ABC Money Matters, NBC, The Today Show, NY 1, Dr. Oz, The Bethenny Show, Sirius XM, Tom Joyner and the Al Sharpton Show. Lucinda Cross is the person women call when they are ready to leverage and monetize their expertise and message all while creating products, programs and a signature a platform. 

Join me host Hezekiah L. Montgomery of the Man In The Mirror and Co-Host Nichelle Johnson as we interivew this great woman who knew somewhere in her heart Greater Is Coming.

In Matthew 25:31-46 Jesus teaches that when the son of man comes in glory He will separate the sheep from the goats.  Some were very unsuspectedly surprised with his answer at the end of that scripture.  “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”  

What am I talking about? Well I'm glad you asked.  As we're going on in our daily lives, are we actually living as a sheep, or are we living as goats.  It's easy to be self-centered and live like a goat and think that we're doing what’s right for everyone around us.  But it's truly hard to live that example that Christ gave us and love the people that are hard to love, or that have made terrible mistakes in life.  We have to remember that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God Romans 3:23.  

Join me tonight Hezekiah L. Montgomery host of The Man In The Mirror and Nichelle Johnson Co Host as we reveal a special scenario and hear from you our audience to see what's on your mind, and what would you do. What would you do with all that's going on in Baltimore today and you’re involved in a hit and run situation.  And that hit and runner was a young black African American male who took off and didn't really care if he was right or wrong.

Join me host Hezekiah L. Montgomery of The Man In The Mirror, and my co-host Nichelle Johnson as do or Pre-Father’s Day Show and interview Deacon Thomas Farr.  He’s man that is very much on fire for the Lord and has the love of God in his heart for men and bring them closer to our Lord and Savior.

Proverbs 3:5-6 says "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. 6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths."

The last show we talked about faith, this week we'll be talking about and asking the question Do You Trust Him?  Proverbs says, trust in the Lord with ALL Your heart.  How many of us really do what that says? How many of us stop following our own mind and intellect and do what God says, Trust Him. Think about this, when your child was little and you used to throw them up in the air, they trusted you enough that they knew that you would catch them and not let them fall.  That’s the kind of trust that God wants us to have in him.  

Then He says in all your ways acknowledge Him.  We have to put God in everything, and He will make our paths straight, or make our ways in life easy so that we get to where we need to be in Him.

Join me host Hezekiah L. Montgomery and my co-host Nichelle Johnson as we discuss what it means to truly trust in Him.  Call in, ask questions, and tell us your story about how you too had to trust in Him and his word to get you through even when you didn't understand.

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and the assurance about what we do not see Heb 11:1.  The word also says that with Faith the size of a mustard seed you can remove mountains Luke 17:6.  What am I saying; well I don't have to say much.  God wants us to have so much faith in Him that we'll begin to believe and understand that if we put our faith in action He will have to do what we've asked and prayed for Him to do on our behalf.  

Join me host Hezekiah L. Montgomery and Co-Host Nichelle Johnson as we pray, read scripture and discuss faith and what it means.  The definition of faith is ~complete trust of confidence in someone or something~ I'll be reading and excerpt on faith from my book Rediscovering Kia and cross referencing it with the faith scripture from Hebrew's 11.  We have to love the faith the Ancients were commended for!!!

This episode came to me when I was talking to a couple of friends and told them that my credit status is about to change due to a bankruptcy.  Well they began a debate on that you'll never be able to get anything because of it.  Then it hit me like a hammer on my head.  I've heard plenty of testimonies ab out how the Lord has blessed people who really had no means of getting what they've gotten, like a car, new house etc.  As the Lord was talking to me through this all but brief conversation with friend, he wispered in my ear and gave me this.  It's not about your status; it’s about who you serve.

The definition of status is "the relative social, professional, or other standing of someone or something."  So you see you social or professional status or credit status is very important in todays world.  But guess what, in the spiritual real, that means nothing.  You see we have a God that is in control of all of that stuff, so even if they say no you can't get the car, take it to God in prayer and see what happens.  God has a way of making the impossible possible.  He has a way of taking the status that people put on you turn around, why because you serve him.

Jesus took a young boy who's status was only having two fish and five loaves of bread (Matthew 14:13-21), and guess what, He fed 5000 with that and had plenty left over.  That little boys wasn't popular, he was just available when Jesus needed to use him.  It wasn't about his Status it was about who he was around or who he served.  That's what Jesus did; he changed that young man’s status.

Join me Hezekiah L. Montgomery host of The Man In The Mirror and Nichelle Johnson my Co Host as we discuss It's Not About Your Status, It's About Who You Serve.  The Cattle on a thousand hills are His, so what more can He do for You!!!

God gave me these words a couple of years ago and I must tell Him sorry for not writing them down when He told me to.  You see, when God tells you to do something, or He gives you something to say, it’s your duty to do it.  So here I go with the strength and grace that He’s given me.

"Jesus met me where I was in my life and talked to me, sang to me and gave me a song to sing and a new way of thinking, and where did He do that?  He did that in the BDF (Baltimore Detention Facility).  He took a man that was broken, and worked a miracle in 86 days and brought me back to Him.  He didn’t look at what I’ve done, because he knew the mistake in life that I made, He didn’t condemn me, even though He could have, He loved me back to Him.  He met me there, and loved me for me.  I didn’t have to jump through hoops or sing a song.  I had to repent from my sin, acknowledge Him in my life, and He did the rest."

The issue now is that when we make mistakes today the world has an issue of holding our past against us, Not Him.  They make us suffer for our past, but not Him.  I found several hero’s in the Bible that have been on my mind for the past couple of years that prove that Jesus Meets You Where You Are.

Join me host Hezekiah L. Montgomery and my Co-Host Nichelle Johnson as we have a Live Discussion about how Jesus Meets You Where You Are, and tell our stories about where we were when Jesus Met us in our life and listen to others as they tell their stories.
