In this episode, I share a personal account on my misguided beliefs as a child and journey towards understanding the importance of breaking free from the influence of the culture I was surrounded with and at the same time still embracing my own cultural expressions.

At just 37years old, I suffered a brain aneurysm/ severe stroke in 2020. I was flown to the hospital in a chopper due to my critical state. After 2 weeks in ICU God healed me. I can walk, talk, run. Thank you Jesus. Great is your faithfulness

I was homeless an hit my rock bottom earlier this year sleeping in my truck in the lower ninth ward of New Orleans next moment sold some paintings from outside of my truck. Met some major Japanese CEO, year later I got an email sent to me with a business meeting trip to Japan and now I have a studio in Japan and my prices have increased significantly. I have the funding and resources now. And it’s amazing cuz Christ saved me from my old path from coming back to me. New Orleans opened a can of worms for me but it was significantly the best path I could have chose. It launched me to a better path since I had to witness corruption and atrocities committed consistently.

​@@AbcDef-fh8zz hi. The slavery that he is talking about is not confined to one specific definition of slavery. It can also relate to years of narcissistic abuse, or being brainwashed, psychological abuse, manipulation, the list goes on... it all has the end result of being trapped mentally, having severe mental health issues, and can lead to ideation😢. Those who can relate to the statement do not view it as untrue. It is not quick or easy to recover from such things.

Being an ex sex worker I was shocked at the amount of knowledge this man of God possessed. His description of the emotional trauma sex workers endure was so on point it brought tears to my eyes. I never thought a man could emphasize with a prostitute and assess the mental agony a woman or man goes through when they sale Gods Holy temple! HAT OFF TO THIS MAN OF GOD! Thank you for letting the work know sex workers are valued in Gods Kingdom!!!

I remember back in 2014 listening to your music and through that finding a relationship with God. If I’m being honest, through that time as I was growing I did come to a point of judging you like many other and then rejecting you. Since then I’ve had my own falling out, including leaving a church and backsliding into the world. I just want to say as I’m on a path to getting back to where I belong, Im truly sorry. I’ve come to realize a lot in life, and I just want to say I’m sorry.

Lol, it is such a common thing that the minute we think we have "accumulated "merits" before God and begin to judge the brothers and sisters, it won't be long till Our Lord allows our own fall. Like, whenever we see (or have been) a person that is at that point be sure it's about to get ugly for such person. But it is for our own good as you show with your repentance here. This life IS school and sometimes we just fail the exam, but remember Mary Magdalene's way of adressing Our Lord was "Rabboni!" which means "My Master",, "My Teacher". As long as we're kept alive down here we can always take the exam again and finally succeed at it, with His grace.

Yes Lecrae thank for clarifying that Gods Grace is sufficient at the End. I’m in a situation right now where I came to a point in my life where I was so afraid of rejection to confess my guilt and shame I held for years to my wife. I confessed to being molested as a child and having watching X rated things during times in my marriage. But my wife use that confession to Shame me even more and didn’t want to Reconcile even though God deliver me from it Months earlier. She in the process of filing for divorce because I hid this from her and I’m about to loose my family. I prayed and prayed that she would find Grace to reconcile our 19 year marriage just no Grace from her. But Thank You Jesus for taking all our Burdens to the Cross for ultimate redemption in Christ. Lecrae Help Pray for Me Bro Please!!Divorce would be a Whole new Shame a very Broken place for a Confession I thought she would Forgive me and work it out.

I'm so so sorry for this! I just got divorced because my husband divorced me. We had rough times but I found out he had been watching x-rated things our entire marriage. This spiraled him badly and he never came to me like you did your wife. I had already caught some things before but then during the divorce found out how bad off he was. All I wanted was him to be truthful and we work on it. I forgave him but he chose the other side and divorced me. I wish he had done what you did. But men need to realize that where you all may think it's just your secret or not that bad....it absolutely is terrible. On and off I was having bad dreams or feeling a lack of peace about my husband when we were married. Then, when we would be out, he started having a really hard time keeping his eyes off women even right in front of me. It was a form of abuse that the enemy had him trapped which damaged me. He, too, experienced sexual perversion as a child. It's sad he couldn't overcome it as of now, but at least I sleep in peace. I don't have fear of "what is my husband going to do next?"" And although I prayed for him every single day, God allowed him to depart from me. God knows better even though there is still a bit of sadness. But now I do have peace.

Sanctification, dying to self is painful but the Holy Spirit will help. Go to Him broken and He'll fix you to live a consecrated life. A good few habits that could change your life is reading the Bible everyday. 5 to 10 chapters. Start with the New Testament if you like and ask the Holy Spirt to read with you. Just read as you would read a book the major difference being this is a Living Book. That Book will read you back and convict you. You will meet Jesus the Living Word who is able to transform your mind and totally renew your heart. Just go to Him as a little child. Trust Him.

''that is a moment that cost you something but you are not defined by it''... woo! say it now. This reminded of my pastor's sermon last Sunday, about the 6 different types of pride. 1. self-exaltation (giving credit to yourself) 2.self-promotion (looking to be praised by others) 3.self-justification (expects agreement from God based on your feelings) 4. self-degradation (tearing yourself down and being so self-absorbed) 5.self-demotion (compares self to others) 6. self-condemnation. (pride judges itself, beat yourself down)

I appreciate you breaking this down for others to learn from and being vulnerable yet again. I’m also learning from your wisdom. This video actually ALL your videos have been a huge blessing. Watching this has been extremely healing for me. Your stories/testimony is encouraging me to give therapy another chance. I’ve been in therapy countless times since I was maybe age six up until a few years ago (I’m 40 now) and none of it really helped because I held back certain things. But I’m ready to heal… I’m so ready to heal… thank you for sharing your stories and helping others including myself. I’ve been praying for you and your family.

So "Comfortable" with the embracing of this piece. Especially the different levels of cultural understanding and acceptance. You can take the individual out of the hood, but it takes a minute to take the hood out of the individual. Spot on. I needed this, because for many many years I have not identified with black. But i have embraced the African American culture. It becomes easier to see myself as people who are no longer here, as a fiber of the fabric of who I am today. Life stripped identity from me, I gained my identity back when I received Christ. This is so beautiful to see, embrace and be witness too. And this makes me think about places to visit in the future as I continue to build, many places I would love to see in Georgia. The Underground Railroad, the church that it's in. And seeing the area where people paved a way. I don't fit in the standard culture of African American, but I am adopting so many things that are another design. I can relate to your story with the prostitution. Unfortunately being a woman, I was on the other side, but I am grateful that I could've, should've, would've... But didn't. That was a curse that was said to me I would only be good for. So I stopped having sex. I'd rather hang it up. And if it's God's will, I will give it to my husband. But as of right now I was abstinent but now I practice celibacy. It's not easy. So I am very discerning now. Prayer is paramount. Because this way that has been so evident in society, is almost expectant. I can't have anymore children. But I'm blessed to have 3 beautiful sons. And there are role models available for them to hear. These stigmas on the African American man, I come against them daily. I refuse for them to live by the worlds standards, but to live by who God called them to be, In His image, creators, trusted with the plans for creation... Stay blessed and in His grace. And thank you for holding my hand in the deep end. 🙏🏽🕊️

Lecrae is such a realist when it comes to story telling. It may not be what you think it is but it is his story!

Our bodies will shut down in certain times That is the God in us telling us to leave certain scenarios When we have headaches or bodyaches, our bodies shut down it’s the God in us telling us we need to leave certain certain situations .. We’ve been programmed to ignore that

In the end, it is so awesome to know that we have broken so many generational curses We were never supposed to be like the others Good or bad it’s all a lesson What do we choose to let go of from our past Let go of past pain Let go of old guilt

3:00 #Lecrae Myyy God. This allegory/analogy is NOT only practical wisdom, but it's appropriated and substantiated by THE HOLY SCRIPTURES. (That's why I refused to become a Product of Myyy Environment, and I've been kickin' da butts of Generational curses since I was a YOUNG WOMBMAN; Well, REALLY MET THE LORD FOR MYSELF IN HIS FULLNESS & GLORY 😊) YOUR PODCAST IS [A] BEAST 🌬🦍📯🔥🔥🔥 FAM !!! ~ ~ #queenchynawest [just my stage name/moniker, film credits, etc. - I've earned it 😌] aka #ChynaDoll #h2sentcafe2 #h2sentcafellc #h2sentcafe1 #queenchyna #queenchynascafe #pastorchyna #DRCHYNA #coachchyna #unapologeticallydope #MATILDA #14Grands Yup 👸🏼💃🏼🐆💋

Thank you for explaining your path from childhood. I think people think that everyone can break out of the cycle their parents made. Not true. Even "privileged" kids follow their parents patterns. Suburban kids, following their parents patterns. Kids in the hood, also follow the patterns they see and experience in their life from parents, guardians, and neighborhoods. So, we really are not so different. So, when someone says to "Pick yourself up by your bootstraps", they are stating it like they themselves did that, when in reality they never have. They just follow the pattern before them. Not an accuse, but true. Anywho, thanks Lecrae for sharing your story and breaking the cycle.

Berakah and Shalom 🙏 thank you for being obedient and vulnerable. Your testimony will help others overcome🙏❣️Rev 12:11And they overcame him because of the Blood of the Lamb, and because of the Word of their witness, and they did not love their lives to the death.

I completely agree... I have not experienced that much unity as you have in our community... not even among family... and when there was unity it was conditional... sometimes aggressive and the love of money ruined everything... As for isolation... totally agree... unless you are getting detox from the world and other things you cling to for a season so you can just spend time with God alone... sometimes to know who you are... you gotta remove every other mirror except HIM... So I think it's seasonal and based on where you are at and the necessity of isolation at that point and then seasons of greater interaction and service...

Some of conventions and struggles are just between you and the Lord and testimonies too Only God really cares ans can do something and help no matter what our back ground or issues or experiences I I’m speaking in general here I’m not talking about him or his story I have stories of my owm That the lord continues to help me through now until I see him

You are basically living out Colossians 2:14 NKJV: having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. Our sins are forgiven and God does not remember them. I'm glad that such conversations like this can be had. Really encouraging to see Lecrae embrace the realities of who he is in Christ. Inspiring to other believers to say the least. ❤
