Sweet November

To celebrate two years of reaching the masses through prayer, praise, and the preached word the JudahLYFE team hosted its first edition of JudahLYFE Unplugged, a night of uninhibited worship. Saturday night October 27th people gathered at Real Life Church & Ministries just outside the nations capital to celebrate with D. Jakolby & JudahLYFE in and intimate atmosphere.  Special guests included Psalmist Iris Lewis, Rob Mercer, Darnell Moore & Company, Martina Green, and a spoken word from Pastor Willie Thompson. Lives were touched and people walked away encouraged.


JudahLYFE Unplugged served as a great segue into the exciting things ahead for the month of November. This is going to be a month of major exposure through media, outreach, and travel.  First on the agenda is JudahLYFE's premier on BET's Bobby Jones gospel.  Back in August the team was featured on BET's Bobby Jones Gospel in the New Artist Spotlight. JudahLYFE performed the hit single "What's Coming Is Better" from the debut project Freedom to Worship available on iTunes, Amazon, & CD Baby.  The show features gospel heavy weights such as Tamela Mann and BeBe Winans. The episode premiers tomorrow, Sunday November 4th on BET at 9am Eastern. 

Although we can't wait until Sunday to view the show, we are waking up early Saturday morning to participate in DC's Walk Now for Autism Speaks . One more week and we hit the road to Hartford, CT to worship with Citadel of Love at Harvest 2012. Next up is the Outpour Youth & Young Adult Revival at Word Alive Church International in Manassas, VA. If you are in the area we hope to see you there.

Don't forget to follow the team on Twitter @DJJUDAHLYFE. Like us on Facebook at Min. D. Jakolby Washington & JudahLYFE or visit us on the web at www.judahlyfeministries.com. I'll leave you all with some footage from JudahLYFE Unplugged.

Fully Functioning Society

The course that I thought was so riveting is now becoming less of such. This is probably because the questions I ask people just give blank stares as if I'm speaking Chinese, African what have you. I think it is more of a self-confidence thing. I have a high need for feedback and when people don't say anything I start thinking something is wrong with me. Silence makes me nervous for some reason. If that last sentence was a lead to an article I would have gotten absolutely no coverage. So glad I can have a forum where my writing is not being judged. My question today is does PR add value to society? Should it seek to help make society fully functional? We can see now that the consequences of a corporate culture of greed and self interest is finally bearing bitter fruit for so many industries. So now the public is demanding that CSR be the very core of business. But beyond that should PR seek an orientation to make society fully functional? This was the argument in class tonight.

This One's For The Ladies

To give some context to this statement I'll tell the story of Ruth and Boaz. Ruth's husband died and she decided to stay with her mother in law, Naomi. Naomi and Ruth are dirt poor and go through a lot of tragedy where they are. Instead of returning back to her family she decides to keep the customs of her mother in law. Naomi has a distant relative Boaz, who happens to be mad rich. Naomi tells Ruth to work in Boaz's field to make ends meet. Long story short Boaz takes a liking to Ruth and eventually they get married. Through all of the struggle Ruth went through she ends up with someone that is best for her. Now that you know this story you will understand this comment I saw on facebook: Hey Ladies, "Ruth patiently waited for her mate Boaz. While waiting on YOUR Boaz, don't settle for ANY of his relatives: Brokeaz, Poaz, Lyinaz, Cheatinaz, Dumbaz, Cheapaz, Lockedupaz Goodfornothinaz, Lazyaz or Marriedaz and especially his third cousin Beatinyoaz. Please, wait o

The Death of Nick Charles

This is my first post of 2013! This isn't really the post that I want to start the year off with so let's play catch up. For New Years I went to church, shot my first gun and drank champagne with my cousins. I was pretty excited to get back to work for the Spring semester. One reason being because each semester serves as a fresh start. Another reason being because I had a class that wouldn't start until February, so my load this time around is much lighter. I enrolled into an acting class. Our first assignment, and the reason for this post, is to pick a poem that could be delivered in a minimum of 2 minutes in length. I don't follow poetry too much so I chose the first long poem in Black Voices. It's called The Death of Nick Charles by Everett LeRoi Jones, who I later found out is Amiri Baraka. I heard of the author but never heard of the poem.  Not having a clue who Nick Charles was I did a search and found out that he was a sportscaster that died recently. This
