The DMX Files
As I took off the Silence spoke to me and I truly listened. It was like Elihu speaking to Job about God’s goodness and majesty in Job 36 and God breaking it down in Job 38-41. I had nothing to add. When it was all said and done, I had to admit as Job did in…

DMX and the Ballad of the Brokenhearted
Have you ever looked into the eyes of someone who has been truly brokenhearted? Perhaps you have and they were your very own eyes? If you have, then you’ll likely agree with me that despite what romantic entertainment will have you believe, there are relatively few people who have been completely brokenhearted. To give you…

No Reason to Pray
Why is it that so many of us pray to God like we’re running for office? In my opinion the biggest benefit to a relationship with God is that we are supposedly talking to someone who knows everything about us and loves us anyway. If I have to fake around God like I can trick…

Road Trip with God, DMX, and 23 Bottles of Water, Part 2
There have been plenty of times when I heard people say that God talks to them. Spending so many days in church growing up, I saw plenty of people “get happy” or “catch the Holy Ghost”. I’ve been to every service a church could have–even down to choir rehearsal. I’ve been to quiet services where…

Road Trip with God, DMX, and 23 Bottles of Water, Part 1
It’s been over 11 years since I walked into the Wherehouse and sold almost all of my rap CDs. Looking like a crackhead–no offense–I went in there all shaky asking, “How much can I get for these?” I’m sure the cashier thought I stole them. Why else would a young black man come into a store and…
