Words of the Week – Accept the Unexpected

Dr. Froswa Booker Drew, NNPAMarch 23, 2022

When we don’t trust God’s timing, we can make decisions that cost us and have consequences. Even as Moses followed God’s instructions and said to the Hebrews that it was time to depart Egypt, they became overwhelmed at what they saw in front of them. Despite God’s reassurance that He would be there with them, when faced with something unexpected, they wanted to go in another direction. They were not prepared to be chased by the Egyptian army and they didn’t expect God to part the Red Sea for their deliverance.

Words of the Week – One Nation Under God

Rev. Dr. Mary S. Minor, Contributing WriterFebruary 10, 2021

Scripture: Deuteronomy 17:14-20 America has a great deal of work to do to bring these words from our Pledge of Allegiance to fruition: “…one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” Today’s scripture text comes from the book of Deuteronomy. In Hebrew, Deuteronomy means “words.” The book of Deuteronomy is a “repetition of the law.” Moses is the author of Deuteronomy. Therefore, it’s known as the Book of the Law of Moses. Jesus attributed the book of Deuteronomy to Moses (Matthew 19:8). The apostle Peter, in Acts 3:22-23, credited Deuteronomy 18:15, 18 and 19 to Moses. The

Moses, along with other great prophets, had first hand experiences communicating with  the LORD, listening to the LORD and following His instructions and mandates. The expression,” the LORD said” was made some 45 times in Exodus: to Moses, to Aaron, to Pharaoh and to others.  Why is this important? In looking at Exodus and the experiences in a more narrative way, we can grasp the sense of  these great signs and miracles done by Moses at the directive of God and with Moses prophet, Aaron.

‘Harriet’ My Choice for Movie of the Year

California Senator Rod Wright (Ret)December 12, 2019

“Harriet” the movie is a portrayal, based on the life of the legendary African American heroine.  It is not, nor is it intended to be a documentary of her remarkable life.  At times during the movie historical facts are noted on the screen.  Harriet Tubman lived for 91 years, this movie covers about 8 to 10 years of her life.  So we know there is much more to her life that we don’t see in the movie.  I pray the movie raises interest in Harriet Tubman, particularly among young people, many of whom had unfortunately never heard of Harriet Tubman.

Success “On The Way” Ask Dr. Jeanette ‘Brave and Courageous Women!’ Pharaoh and Herod: Villains Part 2

Dr. Jeanette ParkerApril 4, 2019

Shiphrah, Puah and Jochebed were most courageous and confident in their positions of rightness. They were fearless! Imagine having to confront the Pharaoh and disobey his command to kill the boy babies. Think about their response to him when he learned they were not killing the baby boys, explaining, ‘When they would get to the Hebrew women who were having the babies, the babies had already been born and “the women are “lively” and have already birthed the babies.” Jochebed, Moses mother his father saw Moses was a special child. Consider other fearless women: Harriet Tubman, an American abolitionist and political activist, born into slavery.
