Repost | The 1st Annual AAMBC Book Drive (until December 15th)
This is a great literary effort! Look through your bookshelves and plan to participate.
From Tamika Newhouse, AAMBC Founder
and Book Drive Coordinator
This year marks the first ever Holiday Book Drive conducted by AAMBC. I for one am excited as I have located two group homes in the San Antonio Metro Area. The book drive is the spread the love for literature and to entertain those who are less fortunate in a way they would have never imagined. I hope you choose to donate. You may wonder why books and not food, clothes, or money? Spreading literature is something that can never be taken away from someone. So give out the gift of reading. I have located two homes and here is some information about each one

Marriage is Like a Bank: Top 10 Deposits to Make Today
Marriage is Like a Bank: Top 10 Deposits to Make Today
by Jewell Powell
We’ve all heard that success is a journey, not a destination. I say that marriage is a journey, not a destination. In other words you have to constantly work at building a successful relationship; it doesn’t just happen. We know that the cares of this world: career, children, household chores, other family members, and more take up so much of our time that by the end of the day, we have nothing left to give to our spouses. In turn, our marriages are missing the very core of what it should have: love.
PODCAST | Pat G’Orge-Walker
Today, on Written Voices Podcast author, Rachel Pat G’Orge-Walker, shares an excerpt from her latest book release, Somebody’s Sinning in My Bed.
Pat G’Orge (pronounced Gee-or-jay) – Walker is in a league of her own. This accomplished Christian author and comedienne has an amazing mind and talent for turning her observations of church and black church life, in particular, into gems of sidesplitting humor. It is her own special gift from God that enables G’Orge-Walker to depict the often ridiculous antics of church folk. She does it without subverting the Good News or watering down the potency of its message.

The Reality of Our Enemy
The Reality of Our Enemy
by Eric Lambert
Satan wants you to doubt God. If the devil is successful in getting you to think contrary to what the scriptures say about you, then the battle is already half won. No one can convince you that you are what they say you are. You must first believe that you are what they say before they say it to you. You have already engaged in a battle with the words that they bring to you in your mind. If you believe the lie that is hatched in your mind, then you will believe the lie the person speaks to you.
