The other day I was watching Oprah. Yes every now and then a young black brotha watches Oprah. They had the cast of the movie “Crash” on the show. I have not seen the movie, but I heard it’s a very good and I plan to see it soon. I ask the question does racism still exist? There are people who say that it does and there are people who say that it does not. Where do you stand?

My personal believe is that is still does exist in America, but racism today is very undercover. It’s spoken now in the privacy of homes, underneath people’s breath, or the main place just in their daily thought life. Throughout your day have you ever had a racial slur go off in your head when you have seen someone of the other race do something that you didn’t approve off or rubbed you the wrong way? Paul told the people in Corinth to take every thought captive and make it obedient to Christ. All it takes is a thought that is dwelled upon to have hate enter your heart. To my white brothers and sisters out there with FAMU homecoming just passing how did you feel when you saw a young black man with a gold grill (gold teeth), candy painted car (colorful paint job), and 24’s on his whip (24 inch rims on his car)? Did you look down upon them? Did racial slurs start popping off in your head? Or did you see them the way Jesus does? To my black brothers and sisters out there with FSU homecoming about to happen how will you view people who don’t look like you? Will you have the Farrakan spirit? Or will you see them the way Jesus does? Do you find yourself laughing and condoning when your relative or friend tells a racist joke. I write this blog just to challenge your mind. Hurricane Katrina showed us many things wrong with our nation, but the biggest one is that the African-American culture has extreme prejudice and racism within itself. It’s time for us as believers to step our games up. It not okay to have a thought life of continued racism and prejudice. It starts in the church today. Just because you raise your hands in church with someone who is a different ethnicity than you doesn’t mean your reconciled, especially if after church your calling them a “honkey” or a “nigger” out loud or in your head. Segregation still takes place in our nation every Sunday and with God’s people. That is a sad state for God’s church to be in that place, but we can and will change that in this generation. I hope this challenges us, but I hope it encourages us as well that we can change the culture.


PS. All the people who thought I had fallen off “Your boy is back”. Please excuse any spelling or grammatical errors it’s 3:00am.

I have not fallen away. You hypocrites who are so quick to judge please take the plank out of your eye first. I will be back and better than ever.
Holla At Yo Boy!

Celebration of Discipline: The Path to Spiritual Growth, 25th Anniversary Edition
By Richard J. Foster

I just wanted to apologize to all my fellow brethren of Xanga. I know I came out the blocks strong and appointed myself apostle of Xanga. I need to admit something to you guys that I have “fallen away” from the Xanga faith. I had my moment were I was captured by the Xanga faith, but I got ahead of myself and didn't have solid foundations. The” enemy of Xanga" captured me in my youthful zeal. I apologize brethren. I realized that I needed to get my foundations in order, so I have been getting discipled by COSMcGarry and he has been taking me through the "Xanga Purple Book". We are putting right foundations in me now and the book covers many topics such as:
1. How to post pictures: I step out there with zeal and no pictures and look were it got me.
2. How to post meaningful blogs.
3. How to make your sight cool like Juanny O.
And much much more....
I am getting restored right now in my "Xanga faith" please stand in prayer with me brethren.

Michael Jackson: The Ultimate Collection

Last night I finally jumped into the 21st century and got an ipod. It's one of the top 5 electronic devices of all time. As I was sitting here I decided I wanted to throw out my top 5 electronic devices of all time:
5. The Atari: The first real video gaming unit. Pong is a classic. Like the LL Cool J "I'm Bad" video never get's old.
4. The Eight Track: For all my old school heads out there.
3. Play Station 1 and 2: Revolutionized video gaming, and it’s a great outreach tool. Many disciples have been made from a good game of Madden.
2. iPod: Can carry my Michael Jackson jams in my pocket now.
1 The Nintendo with the "running pad". Most of my memories as a child consist of basketball and Nintendo. Nintendo helped shape me to be the man I am today. The "running pad" for World Class Track and Field was so great. I owe a lot of my athleticism to the "running pad". I could go on for days and days about Nintendo, but I won't.

List your top five Electronic Devices

Dear Brothers and Sisters of Xanga,
I Adrian of Akron once persecuted the "way" of the blog, but I had a Damascus road experience over COSMcGarry's house, which changed me forever. It was my mission in life to destroy Xanga and everyone involved with it. I once tried to destroy timeoutref’s site, along with daily persecuting her and other members of the "way" for their passion for Xanga. When I had my moment I realize that deep inside I just wanted to be a part of something cool and meaningful like posting daily blogs. I used to be the biggest Xanga persecutor, now I will be the biggest Xanga planter. My mission is to preach Xanga throughout the world in places were they have never heard the "gospel of Xanga". In the hood you best believe not a lot of brotha's got Xanga sites, but if you will join with me brethren we can see the hood reached for Xanga. I know that persecution is coming, but if you stand in the faith with me we can overcome. My name was Adrian of Akron from the Crawford clan. I will now be known as Adrian of Xanga (Xanga Apostle). Blessing to you all who stand strong in the "way of Xanga" pray that I might preach the Xanga gospel with power. All the new believers send their greetings and Jalen of Tallahassee says "holla at yo boy".
