The COVID-19 virus has literally brought the world to its knees. An organism invisible to the naked eye has defined the way you and I live. It has confined us to the walls of our homes and dictated how we interact with one another. Only employees of certain establishments deemed essential are still showing up to work. Schools have reverted to learning at home or full time online classes. A creature that tiny has put billions of people under its command. We are truly in remarkable times and uncharted territory. It makes you think of the true power of faith when Christ tells us if we have faith as small as a mustard seed, we can move mountains…Has this tiny virus not moved the whole world? No one and no organization has been exempt from the impact of this pandemic. But let us focus on our ho...

Celestial’s bright star is Oluwatobi Awosika. Tobi is a young man that has taken a craft as a Barber to the streets of Skid Row. For those that are not familiar with Skid Row, it is approximately 55 blocks filled with homelessness, poverty, substance abuse addicts, and prostitution. Around Skid row, you have several multimillion-dollar buildings, including The Staples Center home of both The Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers, The Nokia Center, and The Fashion and Flower District.

He decided to use his craft to show love to his fellow brothers and sisters. Tobi devoted free services to those less fortunate to allow th...

Just over 100 days ago, the United States had its first case of the Coronavirus, better known as COVID-19. All normal things came to an end. We were forced to be quarantined. Many lost their lives, many lost their jobs, and people of all ages had to come to terms with their mortality. Schools abruptly came to an end; teens missed out on opportunities to attend their proms, grad night, and graduation. Even our place of worship was no longer accessible. This experience has drained us all. Healthcare workers and essential workers are overwhelmed without adequate protective equipment. To date, there have been 118,000 deaths. This event has been an unprecedented time for all of us. People are afraid and worried about their health and the health of your loved ones. Their financial situation has ...

A study in Matthew 9:9-13. God extends his reach to all.

You may be going through many problems in life and believe that the problems that you are facing are too much. It may feel as if it’s impossible to overcome and you may feel like GIVING UP. But DON’T and here’s why. Exodus 13:17(NIV) states this: “ When Pharaoh let the people go, God did not lead them on the road through the Philistine country, though that was shorter. For God said, “If they face war, they might change their minds and return to Egypt.” The lord had just liberated the Israelites out of bondage from the Egyptians. The Lord was leading them to the land that he had promised to the fathers of the Israelites (Abraham, Isaac, Jacob). The verse lets us know that there was a shorter route to the Israelites destination but because the Lord knew the Israelites may run back to Egypt i...

Mark 4:35-40 The disciples of Jesus Christ were in a ship with him, when a problem arose, then out of fear and worry they told the Lord Jesus “Master, carest thou not that we perish? Most, if not all of us can relate with the disciples, often when we face problems in life we get afraid, we start to worry, we forget who our God is, we forget his Word.  They had the Lord Jesus Christ in the ship with them and they were still afraid! They had the powerful, miracle working Lord with them and were still worrying. It doesn’t make too much sense as to why they would worry if the Lord was with them correct? I want to let you all know that the same way that the lord was with them, is the same way as a child of the Most High God that the Lord is with you. So why should you fear in the face of tribul...
