Loving someone is knowing them, but knowing someone requires spending time with them. It is the only way to transition from head knowledge to heart knowledge, thus developing an intimate connection. Spending time with God will transform you from practicing religion to being in a relationship with God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. God has many attributes and characteristics. It's who He is, not what He does. Grateful for God will inspire you to get to know who God is. He will reveal Himself to you in many ways-in the Bible, through worship songs and hymns, and in nature and other people. Come! Discover who God is. Spend time with Him. Know Him, and love Him. Join me as we cultivate a deeper, more intimate relationship with God.

Born into obscurity, poverty, and indifference in the 1960s in the heart of the African wilderness, Kisemei Kupe experienced neglect, hunger, loneliness, misdirection, abuse, and danger to a degree that very few in our Western culture could imagine. Reaching out for help, he devoted himself to Islam only to find himself in acute despair and hopelessness. Yet in the midst of these crushing circumstances, Kisemei experienced a dramatic encounter with the vision of a man he had never met and whose name he didn't know. It was an encounter so genuine and a metamorphosis so drastic that it would set in motion a series of events that would lead him to face certain death for his actions. He was once a warrior for his village, but now a new warrior had emerged. This is a story that many of us need to hear today-a story that transcends the jury of society, an abiding story of truth and hope for us all.

As he works to rebuild his life, he's forced into a fight for the lives of those closest to him in the face of an unrelenting shift in society's moral compass .Convenience opens our eyes to the real cost of the decisions we make. The more our modern world values efficiency, ease, and transactional relationships, the more we are prone to lose sight of our worth as human beings made in God's image. Hi-tech advancements, such as robotics, AI, and the ability to 3D print almost any object right before our eyes, make life more convenient. Yet, we're prone to miss what else is happening right before our eyes: the devaluing and redefinition of life itself. If this shift continues, whose lives will be deemed inconvenient next?Convenience is as much a wake-up call as it is a deeply moving story about a family navigating crises in an increasingly complicated world.

In a day and age where we are globally connected more than we have ever been in the history of the earth, it is well researched and documented that teenagers are reporting more feelings of loneliness and teenage suicide is more prevalent than ever before. For those of us who have chosen to bravely love and walk alongside the next generation we must understand that the need for mentorship within the context of relationship is what our teenagers need. They crave and desire to be fully known and deeply loved. When you spend consistent time with them, you earn the ability to speak into their lives, whether that is words of encouragement or correction. During the 2010s decade, while Kendra was in her 20s and Kenya was in her teenage years, we had the opportunity to do exactly this with each other.The narrative around the next generation is not always one full of hope and belief. It takes a certain type of person to pour their lives into teenagers where we often do more seed planting, than we do reaping the harvest of our labor. If you have the courage to read on, we believe you will glean great insight into winning, developing, and mentoring the heart of your teenager and begin to help us change the negative narrative one teenager at a time. If you believe like we do, that the future of our world depends on how we commit to them, we invite you into our story. We intend to be part of the solution ... won't you join us?
