It's been awhile, we were regrouping, but we are back now and expecting many more community members to join us here in our Virtual Better Life Academy. Here's my question... If there were 3 classes or 3 lesson's you want taught before the end of 2026 here in our SKOOL community, what would they be? Drop the course ideas in the comments and let's get reconnected.

Just wanted to share a portion of my personal morning devotional today. I clearly hear God saying, prepare by uniting others around prayer for the nation. What’s happening Nepal, Africa, The Middle East and in VA are not to be if be ignored. It won’t be easy but we will win. “Lace Up Your boots, put on your backpack, it’s time to ride… I’m riding with Jesus wherever he goes!” Below is a snippet of a song I had on repeat during my devo today, along with a portion of one of the 3 books I’m reading today. Scroll left to see book excerpts COMMENT What does this mean to you? What are you hearing the Lord saying?

🎶 I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings Sometimes the song isn’t about comfort… it’s about survival, faith, and hope. A bird in a cage sings because deep down it still believes in freedom. It still believes there’s more beyond what it currently sees. And spiritually, many of us have had seasons where life felt limiting, heavy, or uncertain—, but somehow God still placed a song in our spirit. Your song is your testimony.Your worship.Your resilience.Your reminder that your current situation does not have the final word. So this week, choose your song intentionally. Let it encourage you, strengthen you, and reconnect you to purpose. 🎵 What song has been speaking to your spirit this week? Drop it in the comments so we can build a playlist of encouragement together. 🙏🏾 :

GROWTH doesn’t happen by accident… it happens through daily discipline. 👑 Real discipleship is not just about attending church — it’s about becoming the kind of man who consistently walks with God even when nobody is watching. The G.R.O.W.T.H. principles remind us to: 🙏 Go to God in prayer daily 📖 Read God’s Word daily ✅ Obey God moment by moment 🗣️ Witness for Christ through your life and words 🤝 Trust God with every detail of your life 🔥 Honor the Holy Spirit by allowing God to guide and empower you daily Strong men aren’t built overnight. They’re built through consistency, surrender, and spiritual growth one day at a time. Iron sharpens iron. Let’s grow together. 💪🏾👑 👇🏾 COMMENT BELOW:Which TWO of these are the most challenging for you right now — and why? #KingsMen #Discipleship #Faith #ChristianMen #Growth #Leadership #MaxPotential #IronSharpensIr :::
