These chapters are birthed from years of experience growing up in the inner city, and my survival as a Christian man. The precept and example of my late parents, instilled from my earliest remembrance, taught me that what I eat does not strengthen, but rather what I digest. After much thought and prayer, I feel this is the right time to add written strength and encouragement to men, women and especially the youth of our communities. Buy today $15.99 | |
