Traditionally, Believers like to follow people with squeaky-clean records. They want leaders who never fell or who never endured public persecution. They want a fairy-tale leader with magical stories of wonder and perfection. Of course, these are the kind of Believers who are about as spiritually mature as my 7-year-old daughter.

So, when Ruach Elohim (the Spirit of God) placed this work in my heart, I struggled with it a bit. I knew it would require me telling my story publicly (without me feeling oppressed or depressed again). It also meant encouraging women leaders like you to take your truth and convert it into an actual ministry.

One of the lessons Ruach Elohim showed me was my story -- and essentially your story -- would never be more "scandalous" than Yeshua's. 

Here was the Son of Elohim, living physically in a world that could not recognize its Creator.

Here was the Son of Elohim, succumbing to ridicule and shame for bringing the Kingdom message to the people.

Here was the Son of Elohim, dying a sinner's death when He never knew (or was intimately acquainted) with sin.

It's actually mind-blowing when you truly study Yeshua's life and ministry. Put His story in our current setting, and you will see just how scandalous it is.

In this empowering lesson, Beloved, I want to teach you why you have nothing to fear as you seek to launch your own ministry using your story. Nothing you have gone through compares to the immense degradation our Lord encountered. To this day, people can't stop speaking about his scandalous story; and yet, His name remains the name above all names.

As you engage in this lesson, understand you're in good company. Consider your story among the heroes of faith who endured far worse situations, and yet they received their crown of righteousness because they did not count their lives unto death. They gave their testimonies, functioned in their ministries with integrity, and eventually assumed a position of honor.

Let this be your witness as well. 

Now, let's jump into today's teaching.

Back in 2018, I began expressing my disappointment within the current Black Conservative Movement. Something about our approach in reaching more Black voters turned me off; and I began challenging my followers to do things differently so we could win.

If you've followed my virtual ministry for a while, you know I speak often of the Holy Spirit and our need to be led by Him. I also refer to Yeshua quite a bit, focusing particularly on His ability to reach people using unconventional methods like storytelling.

I wanted the conservative base to recognize that while our intentions on helping some Black Americans understand the power of their votes, we were using age-old propaganda that essentially ostracized us from those we wanted to reach. I told the base back then (and still today), "There's a better way. And I'm going to prove to you that when we do things God's way, we will always get His results."

Fast forward to July 2019, and it seems this message I've been preaching has caught the attention of more Conscious Black Conservatives who are eager to reach Black voters without using the same, mainstream talking points as the more famous Black Conservatives. And just recently, I had the pleasure of meeting one such person named Jeff Charles.

Jeff, otherwise known as The Conservatarian on Twitter, read through a few of my articles and found my message resonating with his own. He reached out to me and asked if I'd be willing to share my thoughts with his readers on his blog, CultureBeatProject.com. 

Jeff is a fellow Conservative/Libertarian and an author for Liberty Nation. He's been featured in The Huffington Post among other publications; so it was an honor to chat with him. 

What you will discover from this interview, Beloved Conservative, is that we have an opportunity to dominate the political discourse. But it will only happen when we are bold enough to change our tactics so we eventually empower the people we are called to serve.

Now, let's get into this interview.
