Today I have the honor of speaking with Anna Miriam Brown. Anna is a 22 year old song writer, vocalist and author. At the age of 16 Anna began writing songs for the musical called HIS STORY which is a musical about the life of Jesus with a pop/hip hop vibe to it. Anna and I chat about being a creative, how God works in our creativity and how following the Holy Spirit opens us up to awe-inspiring opportunities in life! I apologize in advance for any audio problems! To learn more about HIS STORY the Musical and buy your tickets click here: https://hisstorythemusical.com

Pastor Ronnie Webster joins the podcast today as we have a thought provoking conversation about the truth about yoga. We discuss the origins of yoga, the spiritual implications of this practice, what we can do if we have participated in this practice as Christians and so much more! This episode is extremely informative! Even if you have never practiced yoga I would strongly suggest that you listen because we get into topics such as graven images, new age & the occult, the importance of our breath and deliverance from demonic influence. Please listen to this episode and share it with your friends!

Pastor Ronnie so graciously provided resources for us to explore so please check out this Google Doc I have created with the resources here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Kmv13mseRC6Y_rKoUyVsIm_oV7Y2RuhBYKwtd1lyTaU/edit?usp=sharing

Transformational speaker and life coach Marcell Johnson graced the podcast and lit the place up! We spoke about true obedience, the difficulty of obeying God, what really happens to us when we decide to disobey and go against God’s plan for us and so much MORE! I can’t even try to rephrase all the gems that this man of God dropped for us. All I can say is, make sure you put this episode on repeat! It is a timely conversation for the moment we are in in the world. Remember to share this episode with 2-3 friends who come to mind.

I got the amazing opportunity to have a conversation with rapper, producer and teaching artist Yuself Shelton also known as YS1 DA FIRST. He opened up about the struggle of growing up without his father and how that has affected how he relates to God and others. We also took some time to chat about his music endeavors and his non-profit work in the city of Pittsburgh and beyond. The Holy Spirit showed up in a mighty way for us through this conversation! And I am grateful to Yusef for how he has committed himself to pouring back into the youth who face the same circumstances that he did growing up. This episode is going to help someone who has been wrestling with this very thing for quite some time. Whether you grew up with your father in your life or not, trust me, you will be able to take something important away from this authentic conversation. You can follow Yusef on Instagram @yusefsheltondafirst you can also follow him on Facebook by searching Yusef Shelton Da First

March is in full swing and today's episode is just WOW! I've listened to it more than once already. Simone came to us transparently and authentically as we talked candidly about relationship pitfalls as she warned us about the things that get in the way of us being able to pursue life giving, loving, and Christ centered relationships. There is so many golden nuggets in this episode that you're going to have to listen more than once.

FAM, this episode is just what the doctor prescribed! This episode is for men, women, singles, those who are dating intentionally or married folks. This episode is for the Saints and the not so holy. This episode is for everyone. Y’a granny, y’a pappy, y’a uncle, y’a aunties “friend” and whoever else! Listen & Share this episode because it’s important. 💯

Candid Fam! I cannot believe that it’s already March! That’s actually really wild so to kick off the new month I sat down with my brother in Christ, Joel Gray to have an encouraging conversation about the next generation. We chat openly about what we can be doing to make a difference for young people. Not just in their faith but also relationally, in the workforce, in mentorship and more! Joel truly has a heart for the youth and believes that there is more work to be done for our youth, so let’s get off the sidelines, put some skin in the game and start investing in the next generation.

To keep up with Joel you can find him on LinkedIn by searching ‘Joel Gray’ or you can go to www.pittsburghkidsfoundation.org to check out the daily work that he does locally and abroad for The PKF.
