What do you do when what you see does not look anything like what God said? You might be tempted to give up. Life seldom goes the way that we have planned.

As you look at Joseph’s journey, you will be encouraged to stay the course, fulfill your purpose, and finish strong.

We're made to look passive, dissociated, and defeated. If we're not pot-bellied beer drinkers or egoistic morons, no one wants to watch the broadcast. What happened to John Wayne, Matt Dillon, and G.I. Joe? Men who knew their strengths, understood their roles, believed in hard-nosed Christian values.

It's time for us to go back to the very beginning and dissect exactly who we are as men.

This dissertation is an effort to think through the complexities of how African American literature interacts with what I am terming the notion of uncalling made visible by the heterodox Christianities that fall out of the scope of the Black. In other words, I analyze Black religiosity as an enactment of radical Black collectivity in counterdistinction to a politics of recognition. I argue it is this figure of the uncalled, operating out of heterodox Black religiosities, that can offer an alternative model for liberation and healing that is not bound up in outward cries for recognition.

It wasn't until I had enough of the life I was living and wanted to take my own life that I cried out to God. The Lord reached out his hand in the pit of my despair and lifted me up. I have been walking with him since that day. I fell in love with Jesus because he loved me first, He says we were worth dying for. He did not allow the devil to take me out before I knew what true love is. I went from hopeless to putting my hope in Jesus. Who am I now? I am loved. I am chosen. I am redeemed. I am free!

The story of the ancient Church is one of a people who were finding their way over many years by the light that God shined forth for them.

I remembered the first time I stepped into a church—it was and seemed to foreign to me. I never experienced god before. I was lost—out in the open. My mother never taught us anything about the lord or Christ. I always felt I had an unknowing relationship with him. It was always there or he was always there to protect me and guide me. I always felt a presence;the lords presence. He brought me a mighty long way.
