Killer Turned Pastor

 “In the Middle of a crime I committed a horrible Murder” says Pastor Davis

Listen to this heart wrenching testimony of how Pastor Davis went from Prison to the Pulpit. In jail for a murder he committed at 18 yrs old.

In his testimony he talks about things he experienced at 18 in prison.

“I saw a 15 yr old in the cell next to me DEAD, he just couldn’t take it anymore”.Men and boys were raped repeatedly and no one came to help them” says Pastor Davis

Another Young Black Male Killed

Another Young Black Male in the System

 While listening to Pastor Davis’s testimony I  wept. I wept for God’s saving power and how he loves us all in spite of ourselves. But I also wept for these young people that are making choices based on their emotions.  Instantly their lives are destroyed. Families torn apart over something senseless.

I share the testimony above because just yesterday another young black male was murdered in Norfolk, VA. The young male murdered was 20 yrs old, the alleged shooter, just 19.

Two families destroyed. My heart grieves for both the family of the young male that was killed but also for the 19 yr old and his family. Please pray for them both, we need to cover them with peace of God.

Please share Pastor Davis’s  testimony.

God is a forgiving God and he can comfort those in need.

In a split second your life can be changed because of a choice, an emotion.

MAY OUR YOUNG PEOPLE PLEASE WAKE UP. LIFE IS PRECIOUS.

Breathe Again Magazine

presents
2nd Annual “I Made It” GED Graduation

Murray Center
455 East Brambleton Ave
Norfolk, Virginia 23510

After the ceremony a parent hugged me and said, “Thank you for doing this for the students. The test is hard and they need to be celebrated for passing it and for turning their life around, I just can’t thank you enough.”

Graduation time is quickly  approaching. Schools, families and the media will begin to start preparing for seniors all across this region graduating from high school. That accomplishment is definitely worthy of celebration.  But what about those students that didn’t obtain their diploma the traditional way?
There are thousands of people that obtain their GED each year.

Some are celebrated, some are not. It  shouldn’t even matter why they went that route, the only thing that matters is they made it.

Last year Breathe Again Magazine hosted the 1st “I Made It Ceremony”. It was a huge success.

On May 14, 2009 we will host the 2nd Annual “I Made It Ceremony ” at the Murray Center in Norfolk, Virginia. Our keynote speaker is Barbara Ciara, Managing Editor of WTKR NewsChannel 3 and President of the National Association of Black Journalists.

What’s the Word Mean to You?

Galatians 3:1-3 (King James Version)

 ¹O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?

 ²This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

 ³Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?

 I love this scripture because it basically asks the question -”Who tricked you?” Who told you wrong? Many of us have been down that road. After knowing what path to take we choose to go in the wrong direction. We are convinced that “there is a better way” only to come full circle to have to start over again.

In Verse 3 it reads “Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now made perfect by the flesh?” Do you really think that you don’t need me?  (the spirit). Do you think you can do it on your own?

The enemy is a deceiver and is he cunning. He can paint the picture real pretty. But just know that it is a superficial feeling, a superficial high. Nobody can do us like the father can. He cares for our well being. Stay the course, my sister, my friend. Don’t be tricked.
