This will cover who exactly Jesus Christ is and help disprove some common misconceptions most people have around the name of Christ Jesus. Often times we're not taught what the name of Jesus means from it's original Hebrew root or how it was either a transliteration or translated into Greek, Latin and/or English. Sadly we've heard false rumors of: being a Christian is a "white man's religion", slaves only knew of Christ from slavery, Jesus isn't real, you're not forgiven, Jesus name is actually Zeus etc etc.

This segment will highlight how there is power in the name of Jesus to break every chain that every existed.

 en·co·mi·um = (a speech or piece of writing of warmly enthusiastic praise) 

This piece is honoring all the brave women of our past & of our present who have given more than blood, sweat & tears but even their very lives. From Anna J. Cooper & Sojourner truth to Suzanne Shank & Sandra Bland, we must not only remember our honorable women but celebrate them as they live now. 

May we never forget the countless innocent lives lost at the hands of police brutality, instead of being allowed the proper medical attention. The countless women being sexually assaulted daily. The countless little girls being human sex trafficked.  May God continue to give us the strength to stop these atrocities! May we as men continue to find ways to uplift our sisters with love and genuine understanding.

The highlight scripture/book comes from The Book of Susanna 

- found in the Holy Bible (in the Apocrypha)

May we continue to fight against those who sexually assault, harass, degrade and undermine the mere existence of women. May God above continue to strengthen the bond between Men & Women as we both need each other. May love always conquer the hate. In Jesus Name.

Welcome to Season II (2) of Ya'akobi Radio!!

We're covering how to keep our Crowns in this time of confusion in a world which doesn't love us and seeks to bring us down. We must continue to love others, be light, and be an example of someone simply trying to display the love of Christ. Paul stresses placing others in front of our own desires (huhhhhh how??) running the race to see others find peace & eternal salvation. With this in mind we will in turn become true examples of something Higher, making us in essence true Kings & Queens, as we're serving the Most High by helping others, which in the end helps ourselves. 

Current News we're also talking about:

- Government Shutdown

- National Climate Assessment (READ ME!)

- R. Kelly, Jerry Sandusky, Larry Nassar, and the rest of the phylum filth

- Book recommendations 

Verses Covered:
- Philippians 1:12-30

- Philippians 2:14-18

- Philippians 3:1-21 & 4:1

This was a random spare of the moment conversation me & Dray had during brunch at this flaaaame diner called Snooze. He didn't know I recorded this at first (so shhhh!). His inquisitive nature questioned "what type of people are you allowing in your life"? What influences do they have within your life? How do we ask for help from elders? Also how do we as men & women find spiritual advice? How do we as men find ways to express ourselves? The burden of finding mentors in the believer community can be challenging. Do you feel like you're off the path of what should be doing? Do you feel like you don't have enough "resources" to help those in need the way you would want to reach out to them? Be assured you have everything you need right now - Acts 20:24 - Galatians 5:7

Funny how we all like to dress the part, look the part, speak the part yet say we're not the part.... How do you avoid Halloween? Or better question is why do you participate in Halloween? p.s. if it was really about the "kids" wouldn't you lead your kids to the truth? wouldn't you create other ways of fun for them and yourself? How can we tell people about the Light of Christ if we continue to fall victim to pagan holidays wrapped in capitalism hallmark holidays? - Segment Features: Dralan Pierce

This segment is brought to you by the Man Cave (a HUGE random family of guys from many different bible studies kickin' it in the word). We're speaking on the highs and lows of this faith walk which ain't no cake walk! Yea it seems easy and looks glamours... which we all know is not the case. We're covering social media n' being a Christian, lust, willie lynch, pornography, anger (ready to fight ANYONE), why do we hesitate to share the word, personal testimonies and a bunch of other touchy topics. Video for this segment is on YouTube under the same name and located on Dralan Pierce, Dylan Foster & Ricky Manning's Facebook pages. 6 The Lord said to Cain, "Why are you angry, and why has your face fallen? 7 If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but must rule over it." - Genesis 4:6-7

The actual raw interview with the wise man on (7/27/18). This homeless man only wanted his message shared. This elder was 66 with an incredible living story which hasn’t ended. What much could Dray share with him? What could he tell this man about God? The conversation kicked off from here as Dray casually records their conversation with a string of questions which reveal a deep story that’s not only passed but is still in the making. 1 Let brotherly love continue. 2 Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. 3 Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body. 4 Let is marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous. 5 Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." (Hebrews 13:1-5
