However, all countercurrents must eventually rejoin the main channel. Only one Joe can exit the eddy and continue to live. Joe must journey back in time to the very birth of his soul to discover the connections in past lives that will affect his seemingly impossible decision on which Joe will exit the eddy.

"Which one are you?" were the words Roger and Ronald would hear starting at the age of understanding what those words actually mean. In the first grade, they wore name tags.

At a young age, Jasper and Roddie have define the word discipleship early on. They think of the most unique way to witness to others, drawing them to Christ in a way that most would define as unorthodox. They were experts in street art--most called it graffiti. Jasper and Roddie were offended when others called their art graffiti. They both understood when our Heavenly Father said, "Be disciples, go out into the world, and spread the Gospel of my Son Jesus to all that you encounter in your life." They both take this figuratively. Clearly, God doesn't say exactly how to carry out the task. In the most unusual and unorthodox way, they carry out the task to win their affection and lead people to Christ. They could have painted anything, but instead they paint images of the Bible all over the city. Most believe that they are responsible for declining the crime rate. People take notice and put things into perspective. People found out that hope, grace, and mercy are what our Lord and Savior is offering to those who accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, believing that he died for all the sins of mankind. They accomplished this by doing what they do best: paint. Like potter's clay, witness how God shaped and molded the lives of two young men who have fully matured in Christ.

That he is not going to let you go? The best feeling ever!But with his divine presence, nothing or no one can penetrate that. No anger or drama. Not even a broken heart can override that feeling of God's presence. The heavenly Father loves you through all your pain, and I am here to share what he has done for me. He will do the same for you if you just believe and hold on to your faith. It's been many times, even through my faith in God, I felt like giving up. Not holding on anymore. But when God gives you his divine presence, there's no way he is going to let you fall and not get back up. He is going to let you see and feel that he is with you.
These 100 Questions grew out of an assignment to me by the president of the Stamford, Connecticut, chapter of the NAACP, within one month of the killing of George Floyd, an African-American man on May 25, 2020, on "how can white ppl help [end] systemic racism?" My answer was: "Easily. It takes more than two pages however." Here is my presentation to "white ppl" to help end systemic racism/statism, the hurdles, burdens and barriers put in the way of the citizen to get an education, get a job, start a business, put a roof over their head, put food on the plate of their children and pursue happiness as they see fit.The Chicago Tragedy is shorthand for our nation's silence on the daily violent death of young black men, boys and bystanders countrywide. For example, in 2016 there were 762 murders reported in Chicago alone, which worked out to more than 2 people killed per day, which fell most heavily on young black men, boys and bystanders!

Imagine if the world as you knew it ceased to exist. The lights don't come on when you flip the switch. There are no cell phones, no electricity, no modern conveniences that we are all spoiled to. The stores are ravaged, out of stock. You can't get gas or other supplies. Medical services strained to the breaking point. The world is literally coming apart. Your fellow man becomes your worst enemy, and no one is coming to help. You are not a trained survivalist. You are not some prepper that has a fully stocked hole in the ground ready to crawl into. All you have is your immediate family, hope, a prayer and a plan to get to safety. What would you do if it was TEOTWAWKI, The end of the world as we know it?
Jeff D. Hutchinson wasn't always a master chief of the United States Navy. He grew up in Atlanta, Georgia, not the Atlanta that we all know today. He grew up in segregated Atlanta, where being Black was frowned upon. He didn't allow racism to paralyze the ambition that was deeply rooted inside of him. He was always the last choice, never the first. Yet, he overcame those challenges and obstacles that made it extremely difficult to be a black man in the deep south. His parents educated him on how to survive the dark days of segregation. The advice of his parents proved to be rewarding for him because he listened and became the last man up when he wasn't supposed to be a choice. In spite of all the dark things taking place during that time, he continued to work hard, do his best in everything that he did, and most importantly, he learned from his mistakes and the mistakes of others.
My Journey Home shines a light on a child's experience when immigrating to another country and adapting to a new reality.
