Black Men Do Go to Church…

(ThyBlackMan.com) At just about 11:30, last Saturday morning (Jan. 7th), a brother stood at the church alter and shared that he occasionally entertained thoughts of suicide. His testimony was stirring. He was joined by two other brothers who, also, were bold enough to share with the audience their struggles.

Christianity: Your “Get Out of Jail Free” Card…

(ThyBlackMan.com) There’s nothing more awkward than to be the one southern black man in the room who says that he’s not quite sure about Christianity.  No one attacks you for asking questions, they just “pray” for you.   Some will talk to you like a mentally-disabled two year old who has never been taught to see the light.  You might even... [Read more...]

The Musings of Paranoid Conceit.

(ThyBlackMan.com) I am riddled with paranoid conceit… at least I think I am.  Rather, I am a devoted husband who is in love with his wife and is overly cautious about other women approaching me.  As such, I treat every other woman I encounter that is not directly related to me as my mother or sister as someone who may see me as a person of interest.  It... [Read more...]

Jacob’s World: We’re Not Worthy?

(ThyBlackMan.com) There’s a plague that is infecting Christians today that I hope to eradicate. It is a rash that’s spread unnecessarily amongst us that limits the power and authority we walk in even though the ointment/balm to correct it exists within the core of our belief.  It may go by many names, but it most often parades itself as a charade... [Read more...]

A Good Addiction.

(ThyBlackMan.com) Life is a Trip!!! and Its not like we are given a customized list of options when we are born into the world. Being thrust into the world not by our own choice, one would think we’d  be given all the tools we need, placed in the right environment, and shown all the love we need to thrive.

Lip Service Interruptions: My Word Shall Not Return to Me Void?…

(ThyBlackMan.com) ‘For just as from the heavens the rain and snow come down and do not return there till they have watered the earth, making it fertile and fruitful, giving seed to him who sows and bread to him who eats, so shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but shall do My will, achieving the end for... [Read more...]
