1 Thessalonians 4:11 says "And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;"

Did you know that minding your own business is a tribute to God!? What do you neglect when you focus on other folk's "stuff?"

It's a quicky! This is for someone struggling! God wants to help you!

Thoughts and reflections from a Jesus-centered, multi-hyphenate who loves football, politics, books and reading people!

I'm joined by my sisters, Whitney and LaPria Genevro for this week's "Ask Domo."

I’m in a book club and one of the members always shows up late and leaves early. We are busy moms so I’m not bothered by that much. The problem is that she dominates the discussion and then gets frustrated, claiming she has to leave. Coincidentally, our group reads a lot about stress management and anger. Because I invited her to the book club, I feel a little obligated to tell her how she is viewed by the group. What should I avoid saying?

I broke it off with my fiancé. It was an emotionally draining situation where she would constantly refer to her father for important matters. When we would get in arguments, she would always start with “well, I talked to my dad and….” Eventually, I couldn’t handle it anymore. The problem is that her mother and I had an understanding and agreed the relationship was not progressing. Since we broke up, my almost mother-in-law regularly tries to hook me up with other girls. Is this wise? 

My boss tried to add me on Facebook. I declined. In a meeting, she casually mentioned it as a way to build trust. Her demeanor and tone made me feel like she was pressuring me to add her. She told me to “consider the impact it would have on our relationship.” I was speechless. How do I tell Her ABSOLUTELY NOT?!

I ran into my pastor at Safeway. She had a bottle of wine in her basket and I was doing everything in my power to avoid focusing on it. I’m a recovering alcoholic so it really shocked and concerned me. I want to know what her philosophy is on drinking in order to make a decision about my membership. How do I broach this discussion?

I decided it was time to ramble about my observations and feelings about marriage and how I'm entertaining discussions about singleness as a 40-year-old human who happens to preach and be saved. I hope this resonates with people.

This is episode #112 and I'm answering listener questions! Y'all tell Oprah and T. D. Jakes to HOLLA! #Oprah #Gayle #TDJAKES #Advice

I have a small business that I’ve had for 7 years. My sister-in-law talked my brother into paying someone else  MORE than I would have charged because she was mad that I started charging family members. How can I share with my family that this hurt me?

My boyfriend and I were invited to a couples trip at the last minute, replacing another couple. We are believers and many of the activities and accommodations aren’t things we do. Should we cancel or see where there are concessions?

I’m dating a woman who is perfect for me in just about every way. The only challenge is that I don’t like weave. She changes her hairstyle almost weekly and it’s an adjustment for me. I want to ask if she could lay off the hair extensions. What’s a safe way to do this?

The guy I’m dating goes through these phases where he is completely unavailable. I learned he suffers from depression and I connected him with my therapist. It doesn’t seem to be helping.  I care about him but don't know what to do next. Do I wait for him to come out of his depressive state or do I move on? How can I have a meaningful relationship with him and be supportive?
