What does blessed mean? What does happiness mean? Are we blessed right now? It might not feel like it. Every day, we look at the news and see a global pandemic, stories of police brutality, and unrest throughout communities among the nations.
Going through challenges in your life might put your faith to the test. Sometimes it’s all about shifting your narrative and finding the light at the end of the tunnel, but is it really that easy?
The world is changing, and our guest on this episode of the His & Her Money Show is watching it all godown and offering up some incredible advice. Dr. Derwin L. Gray is a husband, father, pastor, and author who came from a career in the NFL to found Transformation Church, a multiethnic South Carolina-based community.
Today we’re talking about his new book and his thoughts on life in general, from race to the church to what happiness means to each and every one of us.
Derwin is an inspirational powerhouse who’s got a lot to say about love, faith, humanity, and race. His latest book, the Good Life, is already a best-seller, where he’s taking us through history and back, bringing up the hard questions and giving light to anyone who is looking for answers.
We’re reflecting on everything 2020 has put us up against so far and how we’re looking to move forward, as well as tackling the topic of systemic racism from the cases of Rodney King to George Floyd and all that’s going on right now. This is a great, great conversation that we’re happy to have and NEED to have, and share with all of you in today’s climate.
