This book was written with you in mind. I have always carried a love and a passion for the underdog, the so-called black sheep, those who have been cast aside, the heavy burdened, and those that may feel unloved. I was born as a laborer in the vineyard of the Lord. My life's mission is to push you out of stagnant places and thrust you into your kingdom greatness. If you haven't already read Word to the Wise: Transformation Station, my first book, I encourage you to add that piece to your collection. Allow the spirit of God and Ruach of the Holy Spirit to blow the cool calming breeze of encouragement in your heart and mind as you read each page. Make some time for yourself and allow these Hood Proverbs to minister to your soul. As a native of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, I have a love for the city that birthed a powerhouse minister of the Gospel. Are you ready to recharge your spiritual batteries? Well, let's power up and go for the greater!
