Dear Saints, The other day I was with my daughter, Charity. I had made myself an “old school” play list of some of my favorite R & B artists that I had grown up listening to. Marvin Gaye, Al Green, the Isley Brothers, Incognito, Earth, Wind & Fire, and one of my favorites, the Spinners, … [Read more…]
February – the month we all ask someone to be our Valentine. This year we will have to do it without those little candy hearts. You know the ones I’m talking about, they would contain little messages with words on them like “Be Mine”, “Love You” and my favorite, “Kiss Me”. Do you remember now? … [Read more…]
