Family shapes who we are (even those with whom we don’t have great relationships) and it’s only right to honor where we come from and value what we’ve learned from knowing ourselves and our ancestry. Today we trace lineage in the bible and in our own family trees.

This Baked Bible Story is basically the Biblical version of Undercover Boss. Jesus’ tomb has just been discovered empty and, in their confusion, his followers take a long walk to clear their heads… discovering that those they meet along the path may have valuable wisdom.

Scenes from pentecostal church often include dancing, music, and exhortation, but how often is the Pastor wearing a dress? Dr. David Glover wore the pearls in this video, leading to rich debate from many, and praise from those seeking representation of the queer community in faith.

Dr. Glover is also the founding visionary of Ennoblement, LLC, a consulting company for executive coaching and organizational development. He also is the creator of the initiative “I Like Me”, and Spiritual Fine Arts. With a message of self-acceptance, self-awareness, and anti-bullying, he aims to raise the intersection of mental health awareness and religion with his “I Like Me” initiative.
