THE DARK SIDE OF THE BLACK CHURCH PT 2

I need to add this disclaimer really fast because I don't want to send out the wrong message.


GOD is amazing and so is church but we have to use discernment with a side of common sense when joining or visiting churches

Your STORY is not their story

Your STORY is not their story

I had a wonderful conversation/prayer with my coworkers this morning and wanted to share with you all. 

What runs in the FAMILY doesn't have to run in YOUR FAMILY.

What someone else died from in the FAMILY, doesn't mean you'll die that WAY.

Your LIFE is your LIFE, your FATE is your FATE and ONLY YOU can determine how you want to live your LIFE.

Listen and SHARE

Dating a Toxic Drug Dealer *My Story*

Dating a Toxic Drug Dealer *My Story*

I was very jokey in this podcast episode but trust me the pain was all there and I actually cried after recording. I am so thankful that this didn't kill me, that I am forgiven, that I have done some forgiving and healed from this relationship. I think I cried because it felt good to release my story. 


If you're dating a dangerous man please LEAVE while you can and know that it will get better.

Need resources and anybody to talk to then email me elizabethrgunter@gmail.com


New Podcast coming soon and I am so excited.,
