Dear family & friends in Christ,
Wow! Another year has gone so soon and Christmas is just around the corner. Soon it will be 2017 and we will have to say goodbye to 2016.
I personally would love to see 2016 get behind me as this year has been one of the most testing years in my life, family and ministry.
It is when we go through trials, we grow strong in the Lord. I am sure you’ll agree with me that no one likes to face big storms. But it is the big storms that prove whether your life (like a tree) is deeply rooted and well founded in the Word and presence of God.
Bigger the test, bigger the testimony.
I believe with all my heart that 2017 is going to be a year of reaping a bountiful harvest for the King of kings and the Lord of lords, so put your battle gear on, as it is now time to go on the offensive to possess the land and establish the kingdom of God.
We wish you a very happy Christmas and a mightily blessed New Year.

October 13, 2016 – National Black Church Intiative
The National Black Church Initiative (NBCI), a faith-based coalition of 34,000 churches comprised of 15 denominations and 15.7 million African Americans, is amazed at the depth of Hollywood’s morality of trying to stuff the gay lifestyle down the throats of those of us who consider it as an abomination.
We clearly understand that gay marriage is the law of the land but that does not mean that we have to accept it as cultural morality and we will not. Hollywood understands that it has the sentiments of the White House on this issue and the force of the law but the Church must send a very clear message, you have more than just one liberal audience.
There are hundreds and millions of us who do not appreciate the fact that every program has to have a gay character, a gay sex scene or a gay situation in order to force feed those of us who will never accept it as a legitimate lifestyle. (more…)

As the Syrian civil war continues after a failed cease-fire, many Muslims are encountering God, including a mother with confounding dreams that left her in a state of anticipation.
“The woman dreamt repeatedly of a man who told her that three people would come and bring her good news,” according to a ministry director for Christian Aid Mission (CAM).
“She continued to have this dream for six days in a row,” the director told CAM. “On the seventh day, one of our teams was doing home visits and decided to visit a new house.”

At a time when Coptic Christians are suffering abuses “every two or three days” in Egypt, a Muslim woman in America has made a video calling for more Muslim hostility against the Christian minority, in this case, in the guise of an economic boycott.
In a video, Ayat Oraby—a Muslim Brotherhood sympathizer who has nearly 1.5 million followers on Facebook—recently called the Coptic church a “bunch of gangsters,” a “total mafia” that “rules [Egypt] behind the curtains.”
She accuses the Christians of “stockpiling weapons in churches” and “striving to create a Coptic statelet” in order to continue waging “a war against Islam.”
