corrected nine years old those youngsters aren't able to be here with us this evening and they hail all the way through the mid-30s so we're excited because we are seeing some innovations we're seeing businesses that some are just in the incubator thought process some have been established for over five years and we hope that today from your viewership that someone today can be inspired to maybe

definitely definitely so we it's time for us to open up our virtual room right and allow these young people to come on in our virtual room and let's have a conversation let's talk about what it means to be moving onward and revealing excellence more today um during our let's talk segment um so let's open that up pour in so you know what one thing passed aside i was thinking and i don't know what your thoughts are on this of let's invite josh to come and have a conversation with us about his business model and just speak with everyone and share with everyone exactly what motivates him you know where he where he is now how he got here and where he's planning to go so josh if you could um pop on in virtually if you would and um share some time with us yes come on in josh we're happy to have you is he saying behold i stand at the door and i knock if any man hear it do you hear anyone knocking i just want to see if i need to open the door for josh i wasn't sure if um if i missed something there well as josh was getting ready to come in um some of the things that jumped out to me um passed aside was the fact that josh attends tabernacle church um down here in miami and i thought that was just awesome that um he had an opportunity to attend their tabernacle and he's been in business now um you know maybe not by a strong length of time but a strong uh i think value of time i think he's done a lot during this last year or so that has really caused him to flourish and cause business to flourish as well so i look forward to hearing about josh's journey and i look forward to josh sharing that time with us expressing and sharing his journey with us as well just discussing his you know the ideas he has for churches i think that's just awesome that he literally has a business centered around promoting and helping churches in the area and to be so young i mean that you know these precious um ages of these individuals who actually started much younger than he is now you know he's been in business for a little while and um so i look forward to hearing that that um that that journey that josh has with the rest of us absolutely and when i think about you know going back to the teen years i thought about traditional jobs wanting to work at a foot locker you know i had this affinity with tennis shoes growing up and you know as i think about those traditional jobs everybody wanted to work at the finish lines the foot lockers or any apparel store so that you can have the latest and the greatest but i'm inspired that our young people are thinking outside the box and saying that i just don't want to you know have nikes or you know the latest jordans but i want to help my community i want to do something that's a little bit more meaningful i'm not saying that working at foot locker is not meaningful work um i think it's a good work when you're inspiring people to walk and step um in maybe some good fashion i think you know there's a call for that as well but to say that i'm gonna use my skills my gifts my talents to align with my purpose that goes a step further to saying that it's not only about me but it's now about the kingdom of heaven so it was you know as i just continuously like review and go through all of our profiles it says something to me that people were just sitting back during the pandemic and saying how can i help my church or how can i offer my gifts to god how can i truly be a vessel you know how can i just go not on the beaten path but create a path for myself because i see that there is a need and that someone can be touched um i like that song if you can use anything lord you can use it so that's what comes to mind when i think of all of these you know i keep saying they're elites that's the word of the night because for someone to take their ideas and bring them to life you enter into a different realm of faith um it's a faith journey and look of the hall stop the all-stars of faith in hebrews um you know i'm sure they had questions i'm sure that they were curious to god like okay what on earth look at abraham what on earth um you you're about to uproot me from a comfort zone and and tell me about you may say this idea of a promised land or i'm i'm being so winded but forgive me but i'm just that's how much i'm bubbling over with just all of this um and you know and so now i'm going god at your beckoning to lead people to be the first um so some of the people that we're interviewing they will be the first in their family to launch a successful business they will be the first millionaires and i'm prophesying right now these individuals will probably be the first to get some of their relatives out of debt and to begin to have legacy properties and begin to establish establish generational wealth and i'm i don't know who i'm talking to right now but you know faith is being activated when we just take that first step and begin to walk when we don't even know which door we're gonna walk through or we begin to walk not realizing what the end goal or the outcome is going to look like but all we say is god use me god i'm gonna take what you know what do we see in the old testament i'm gonna just take some flour a leftover oil and i'm gonna see you work on i'm gonna see what you do um as he says little as much in the master's hands i feel my help coming elder tracy you gotta stop you go out i'm here i'm here just um i'm feeling that fire come through i i think you know what pastor such a powerful word you just delivered i actually believe that josh is ready now to come into the room i think now that you've preached him in you've preached josh in the building there he is yeah i knew it i knew you preached josh in the building josh how you doing my man that's good that's good that's good i i'm thinking we um may need to turn you up a little bit just so everyone can hear your voice um powerful story powerful testimony josh we're ready to dive right in um please if you will walk us through what's the name of your business so one second josh we can't hear you but your mouth is moving so there is an indication you probably can hear us now we can hear you josh now we can hear you all right all right um previously the name of the business was j k productions but we're in the process of uh reverending i like that you see that you don't hear him he'll be brandon josh i'm gonna go back a little bit if we can how old are you 13. awesome awesome awesome and what inspired you you say you're rebranding josh um from jnk to you're relaunching maybe something that has been your brainchild but what inspired you to start this journey into photography as well as videography i mean for some churches some there are many mindsets of other churches they're also a backstory buying like these shirts that i'm wearing too but some churches uh when the pandemic first started some people they just didn't want to live stream they just wanted to immediately come back into the building within the span of certain months and certainly at this point maybe the reality is that we need to at least reach more people we just reach out to people you know when friends goes with them but uh certain people we can reach out to the world we can reach out to uh people in europe we can reach out to people in africa all over awesome sounds like you're a global evangelist so josh you you brought up your shirt talk to me a little bit about your shirt i see it says missionary what else does it say there oh it's emissionary sorry i can't really see that one because of the fold but it says digitally sharing god's word awesome i like that and that's part of your jnk or the new brand um initiative that you have as well no no this isn't my uh my shirt i won't take credit for um another youtuber online um i'm also working with aj the ceo he sort of does the same thing so it's a small little collaboration between this channel awesome so you're collaborating with others at this juncture and do you see any future collaborations down the line maybe so i'm not really looking at that much but uh maybe in the future we'll have some more okay right i wanted to weigh in for a second um so you say that you're collaborating and you're on that process of rebranding so what have you learned about your business maybe your faith yourself throughout this process many times when we first started sometimes they're like sometimes it'd be like an editing schedule to edit some things or uh they're sometimes the stream because my computer sometimes might not be the best for myself or might not be the best but to have patience and to have faith and trust in god i love to hear that you set faith and trust in god and is there any bible story um or any text that has inspired you that or that you can resonate as you've been on this journey know that you can say a whole lot but i'm just gonna for the sake of time maybe shorten it down to just a great commission just the first part of it just says go go into the world i like that i love i like that yeah i like that i'm gonna shorten it down go i like that a lot josh you're a powerful young man you have um started your business over a year ago so i'm assuming you as what 12 years old when you started yes um that's powerful that's powerful to start missionary e-missionary work um at the age of 12 and being willing to just go and i think that you have a lot of initiative at that age and even now to do that and it will motivate not even people your age or people older as well that you can show that kind of faith as pastors i was preaching about earlier that's awesome here's a question what where's the farthest country that you've connected to what's the furthest country you've connected to well for right now maybe uh the united states unfortunately still okay in the country but hopefully we'll at least move forward and get connections with other people well i think that's brilliant i mean it's you have to start somewhere i'm i'm sure that you have a game plan of wanting to reach other parts of the world but tell me um where where do you hope your business and brand will take you where do you want it to go well uh right the scene on the screen it had a dialogue on my face but now it's gone can you repeat the question please no worries so you said unfortunately um you've only stayed within the us but where do you envision taking this brand what parts of the country what parts of the world um i don't have like any uh place in particular but hopefully it's all of it maybe uh pretty soon might be um having connections with people in grenada and whatnot i love it i love it i mean from your mouth to god's ears and heart and out of your mouth i believe the people in grenada will come to know more about christ and is soon coming thank you so much josh thank you for having me josh god bless you in your endeavors as well wow elder tracy that was so inspiring it really was what i loved about josh was the focus that he had it was just really a demonstration of i know what god has for me and i'm going to do it and i'm going to do it to the best of my ability just powerful right very powerful and i'm going to even put this on josh i pray that it reached people in afghanistan i don't know if you've been up with the current events but there are so many people around our world that really need to learn more about god so whether it's from grenada to afghanistan to many parts of papua new guinea um even go back to my country um where my roots are maybe um go to liberia um so that god's gospel the great commission that go can really go forth and and reach god's people awesome awesome um what i what i want to do if passed aside is i'm looking at this individual who is in multimedia editing and tech support right and so what i want to see is if we can possibly bring kenneth in because i have some questions i want to ask kenneth about um and you know i don't know if kenneth if you're if you're ready for us but we're ready for you and we want to hear some more about um the multimedia and uh the tech support that you currently um manage and the um i want to hear more about the name the business name as well so kenneth if you're there come on in our virtual room please yeah let's stay on that flow that that media flow i think kenneth might be shy pastor he may be waiting for another sermon i don't know i'm just thinking out loud he may be waiting for another sermon so he can just go ahead and say you know what the lord is calling me into this room um and so we may have to commission or ask you pastor if you could preach one more time and if you could preach this a little bit of just something to draw draw kenneth out of his um um cocoon and and cause him to fly into our room kenneth are you there preaching you know i'm always down to give a word come on kenneth let's just talk a little bit hello happy to have you hi kenneth how are you doing spectacularly how are you doing doing well doing well so glad to have you here and just wanted to find out from you kenneth can you tell us the name of your business um originally when many of my business didn't have a supposed name or just me myself just tiggering with a lot of things because i like i like to play because i like to feel around my hands a lot because it's a thing that i do but the name actually came to me like a few years a few years ago to when they were going to win um it sparked their mind about and talking about the cops of the lord someone that that is a poor that's someone that say that there's things there are melody fluently throughout the world now i want the work that i do emphasize that spanx made my messages only without anyone in every every place so that people can able to hear and be inspired by it awesome awesome um so um how long ago have you started did you start your business um kenneth well if people if it's pretty much like starts we pretty much just started out as we put uh i thought something i didn't sign my eyes when i first started out and it's on placement i held out in college to where i'm used a year where i saw that in my other church to where if people even people need something whether there's something wrong with their phone they needed something created like say flyers of course i'm usually the person that they called us to see that i had a talent for it and most of the stuff that i most stuff that i did in terms of those stuff i'm i mostly just picked it off of youtube like youtube videos of some things that i've seen other people do so people should stuff that i've been doing is pretty much self-taught self-taught yes that's good so you said you started off at your church what were some of the needs that you saw that you gravitated towards in helping people at church well one of the one things was was is that the government was was in the improvement with our streaming up with our streaming system and pretty much and at the time later time we it will flow for a while we suck over through like different heads with what they park party there's heads of the apartment and what we have been known as no no i was saying is that we were just okay so as well as then it's been it's it's not saying something that has been that has been like that's not something that has been specifically what was it did that happen it's not something that happened significantly foreign going around does that some the emphasis on like the that's been like kind of changing their way so when i when when i came became trouble i decided what kind of things could i bring in order to give with epic life living or clear of life and that's good from the fifth different from our streams that we would do at lighthouse asia church we approved it greatly from where we were like three to three like years ago and now with everything you have like we have everything that's scheduled here we have everything like c and secrets like even with our announcements rp recorded and even like segments to where everything you have segments have segments to where um we they usually beat half like but we have we have like a youth train at their children's story when you really want to have it for us we have like you know they're like the person that's teaching a story to pray it meant we yeah we're just more famous of bringing the youth back into the church awesome awesome can it ask you a question when you consider your business model is there anything or any passage of scripture or a um recollection of of an event in the bible that you could think of that kind of inspired you to get into what you're into now [Music] i felt that i truly felt that um and how do you envision yourself moving forward as it relates to okay you've done this um you've done it for maybe five years or so what do you envision the next five years to look like what i've been in my thighs you guys you're super question being like is that what is that i want well what i envisioned my five years being like is that i want to be able to create like a still place of advanced spins to where i can bench out and collide with other people so say even these are something that there's a hardest that there's like these artists that don't get as noticed as much out here let me explain where i can have you create an entire supposed character background when it comes like like music because you use music because when it comes to like music online you can't it's kind of it may be challenging those are starting to get into it like i don't know if it's safe to go on because you're having the rights to that song copyright so right but if something that's provisional and there's something that has not been done before and their immediate appeal not only gets their messenger it also gets it it decreases they also give them it not only gives them credit better towards them but also increases here's this my crit my own like credit build out the field sounds interesting and inspiring so i have a question um say for example there was someone else that wanted to get in the field that you're in and they needed some inspiration to and some help along the way what are some basics that you can share with them to get their business up and running to be multimedia um focus and to be tech support okay what do what would say say and say is that oh like if anything if in everything please be patient with asian visit make mistakes and if you ever start everywhere always always always have to have a bit not but always like try to make a template of what they want you of what you want so like safe and sick they like say for example that you want to want to like to go go to your term in terms of like making uh like mixing making a video like i will bring a video what i imagine is that like you don't have a lot of income on you don't have a lot of income money you don't have the latest and greatest tag i mean stop me if you go to this area it was who's start with what you what you have and then put on so that you can set from few sites so that you can be able to set future goals for yourself step by step i like that spoken some good words um so if you were to leave your mark as it relates to the time we spent with kenneth passed aside what do you take from that conversation um you know as far as being patient setting goals what are some of your takeaways from the conversation with ken i say that kenneth shows us that you can be very resourceful with the tools that you have like at church he saw that there was a need and that he was being called upon to help a lot of people so he monetized that he said well i don't know if he monetized that but he developed a business model that could monetize that he took that that need that idea and he turned it into some profitable income so i would say that sometimes what the tools that we need to start a business we don't have to spend exorbitant amount of money to purchase it it's right maybe the software on our computers maybe we have the answers right within our wheelhouse it's just the effort take the time out to figure out how to solve that need and go after it so i'm super inspired by kenneth and i'm so grateful that he wanted to be a part of this let's talk segment same here and and i like what you talked about as far as you see a need speak to the need and so i i want to um at this point if we can i want to talk to this young man by the name of junior uh junior has this just a great idea of clothing and photography and i really want to spend some time just kind of working through how he was able to bridge those two things and bring them together and just what the business model looks like so we can bring junior into our virtual room um if you can come on in and have a conversation with us and teach a little teach a little bit about his clothing line and his um photography business i think we can just really learn a lot again young person who's actually doing it not talking about it not hearing someone else talk about it but they're doing it themselves absolutely junior hey how you doing good how are you today here i'm good how are you guys doing well first of all i love to smile you like you're happy to be here right that's a good thing yes it's a blessing certainly certainly so i have a couple questions for you but before i begin what is that picture of or what is that image behind you is that a is that a 4045 it's a broken record um that's a part of camera yes it's a broken record actually so that's actually my own podcast room that um me and my team was able to um get started but i'll get more into that when um for dawn but yeah it's a broken record um tell me a little bit about your business um well uh i have two business as of right now so i do videography and photography and also um last year i started my clothing line business also because when i once i was um doing my photography many of the models used to ask me do i have my own clothing to actually like have the model and that kind of gave me the idea to start in my clothing line okay good stuff that's amazing so is that could i be a model i just i'm trying to figure out what what does it take to be you know on junior's team as far as becoming you know one of the ambassadors of your clothing line where is it sold how can i get some um where is it sold i actually wanted to share my screen if that's possible absolutely i don't think that should be an issue all right so um let me just get it started here hopefully you guys can see it so junior is getting his screen ready for us um to share but i think that's amazing where you're able to take your creativity and to just put it within a brand and then inspire the world through your peril because everyone sees apparel you know and people may see man where'd you get that shirt from and you know how can i purchase that shirt and it just came from an idea and you know so junior tells us like you know here you know he has been on this journey and from one business it birthed another business so he's not just um the jack of one trade but he's like leaning into the jack of some trades where he has this expertise in different areas so i love that what i like the most is he listened to a great idea like you talked about past aside you know moving from where he was to another idea but listening as well like you know and not to sound strange but you know listen to the streets having your finger on the post and figuring out what's needed again we saw that with kenneth as well looking at what some of the needs were of the church looking at what some of the needs are in the community and how you can actually impact the community around you so i think that um that is something that really speaks to developing and and expanding the brand so here we are yes so right here is actually my clothing line uh this is the page i was part of a fashion show not too long ago last year um this is just a recap of what happened i don't know if you guys can see it here wow that's so amazing junior that's amazing um yes yes it is and this is one of your models right those were the models that was um there at the time and this is the first start that i created so that was the first shirt let me ask you a question marketing and i was part of a shop yes sir so how long have you been in photography just trying to figure out the time frame here photography been five years um on and off because it is a side gig at first but then i started taking it very serious so it was a side gig turned into a turn into a four gig it was full-time jobs soda so is this at a pop-up shop is this at a pop-up shop or a boutique do you have your own storefront online shopping how does it work i actually have my own online store but as of right now it's um under construction so i am relaunching it the end of this month because i do have new products coming in okay and let me ask you a question junior just going back to the genesis of your photography aspect of it what was your motivation was there something is there a certain biblical um reference or verse an account in scripture maybe a testimony about something you heard or experienced that kind of brought on the photography aspect of your um business that launched into the clothing line well generally what i would say is that um what would expire me is probably the marriage aspect of in the white wall stick because um what got me started was marriage um weddings i was really big on weddings i used to play around with just clips from my colleague that actually got me started with photography and he's really big right now he's working on major projects um especially a lot of church project i'm not sure if you guys know him but he goes by um gail your films so he i kind of brought me on to um seeing a lot of different aspects of photography and how he can make money and also become you know because i'm big i'm a big people's person so it's kind of like i like interacting with people making people smile wow that's so interesting that you're able to show us like you know these two worlds photography as well as what you do in your fashion apparel but my question to you is like you know how do you connect with the community are there any things that you do as a part of community engagement to really give back well it was too late this year and because of covid i was gonna do um basically like a giveaway for school so where i was where i was gonna give book bags and supplies but it was too hectic and covet hit my business kind of went down a little bit but it's coming back it's all trial and error so right now i'm trying to relaunch it and also have like new products coming in and there's a lot of stuff coming out so yes um i was trying to do an outreach program basically but i have done giveaways so far on my website and also for the for the photography side of it i also do sometimes i reach out and say i'll do a free photo shoot who wants to get a free photo shoot just dm me um hit me up on instagram or just follow up with me and let me know when you want to do it and i'll do it for free just so you know give back and like actually just capture somebody moments and also recently um i just got um i'll say a contract or sign to a contract with my partners where we build this studio and this is the production room we have two recording studios also in this room and a lobby and downstairs is our rentals apart uh rental cars so we went to cars and do a lot with this building we just got um actually i do have the address if you guys are sharing it absolutely i mean you know this is go ahead as i say you've diversified yourself and you have made sure you've tried to tap into many different industries which is interesting um and just before you share that address i have a question for you um junior um where do you see yourself growing this brand and being able to utilize the gifts that god has given you um to continue to you know broaden your horizons and broaden your reach well um in the next near future i am trying to see if i can open a storefront um i'm just praying to god that i can do that and able to do that and as far as i'm expanding and reaching out further like um expanding my horizon i am trying to have a managers in canada because i have some michaels that actually got bought they purchased them from canada but the currency is kind of different so they paint more so what i wanted to do is actually expand and go to canada have a manager there and they handle the side of business and then i stay in the us and then after that open many um storefronts and have a wider um business and also the photography side of it i want to become generally i want to become a great filmmaker and producer so i'm working with many artists as of right now um i haven't done a wedding yet although that was generally what got me started but right now i'm starting to tap into the music industry and it's just it's helped me get my creativity out there more so that's what i'm doing right now as of right now but for the next picture one good i have one last question for you junior i don't want to keep it too long um running short on time um i don't think you're married is that correct no i am not okay so i just have a question for you when that time comes and if that time comes who's going to be the photographer for your wedding um or you're going to do that as well we're going to try and do both yeah i'll leave you with that thank you so much you've been awesome i appreciate you and um man that was awesome that was a good question innovative very and i love clothes right of course he's gonna design all the clothing and just to see that he's globally minded so he said that he saw that there was you know just this difference in curious currency um you know canadians are paying a little bit more so why not you know start you know just a collaboration with people up in canada and i thought that was so brilliant you know and it speaks to our very first um you know young person that came on board who said i want my brand to go across the world and everyone has been on that theme of just taking it outside of the us and just sharing it abroad and i you know i'll say this past aside before we take just you know a few moments of a break here i think that has happened as a result of what we experienced over the last year i think we kind of realized you know what i have to be bigger than my space and so i'll be bigger than my space have a further reach reaching where my arms can go and in doing that i can effect and impact more lives and hopefully hopefully um i can go and do what jesus told us to do and we heard that from josh right what did josh say josh said go just go um go mar go further and farther than your space allows and i think that's awesome i love it so we're about to enter into a time for offering um and i think that this is one of the best times of the program because as we're talking about all of our brand owners and business owners that are just bringing in money for themselves um we get back to god offering our worship offering our praise and just offering a thanksgiving for everything that he has done so today as we prepare our hearts to give um there are two ways on how we can give we can give the first way which is through our cash app um and through zell and these opportunities you're going to look at them on the screen and it's s f a y f s e c s c a dot org and then you're going to use cash tag s-f-a-y-f and this is a opportunity that digitally in this new era that we can just pause whatever we're doing on our phones and we can just say god this is our expression of gratitude because we see that the south florida youth federation we're bringing together so many young people so many young adults so many even adolescents to do some great things we're giving them platforms to share their businesses and their ideas and then we're also giving them an opportunity to serve god in his church so if you've been inspired today by what you've seen we're encouraging you we're asking you continue to support god's effort continue to put these offerings because we know that they will continuously further the gospel so again you can give through zell you can give through cash app and god will bless you continuously so i'm gonna kick it over to our team who is at the home base they're gonna lead us into a special song so we are back elder tracy i'm not able i can hear you now definitely i was just going to say that i know we had some issues with respect to some audio with our um music but the idea was we're supposed to keep this song in our heart first so let's just sing the song we had in our hearts let's keep on moving right um before we move on elder i just wanted to make sure we prayed over that offering i know that i really led us into collecting the offering but it was our intent to bring it back um to pray over the offering that it'll continue to stretch and to reach the people of god that need to be reached and beyond so let's pray together god we pray that this offering that was collected through these digital means will go on to continue to spread your gospel we are so grateful that so many young people have signed up to be a part of lord this let's talk segment and we pray that we'll have enough funding for more to come we thank you for everything that this weekend has been and we pray that it'll continue to do some great things thank you for the givers thank you for those that weren't able to give may their hearts be pricked and lord just turn so that they can continue to give to others that serve your purposes we thank you we love you in jesus name we pray amen amen amen [Music] one of the things um that i was looking at past this side is we are still dealing with such a young group of powerhouses i mean these are young people and they are pushing forward and so i wanted to see if at all possible if we could bring in our um next individual to have a conversation with them i know that absolutely we are talking about i mean a diverse group of young people we're talking about multimedia we're talking about um all types of you know whether it be car rentals um building um building space right you know photography filmmaking um clothing lines things that nature but i really want to bring in our next person and if possible i don't know is is peterson available to join us now can peterson come on over and sit down and have a conversation with us absolutely come on in peterson come on in come on in um and as i've been saying i've been so inspired just because sometimes we underestimate what our young people are doing outside of the church um but to know that a lot of them have real estate mindsets you know they are thinking about how to create legacies and streams of income here goes peterson um that follows them even for years to come so peterson get on in here how's it going can you hear us peterson we can't hear you you see your mouth moving and i really think you want to say something right now i believe you do and it's just a matter of hitting that little button and so we can hear you okay i'm looking at you peterson you're young you're vibrant you're serious right you have that face on like it's just it's it's time for me to do what the lord has told me to do and so my question to you is what is that thing what's that thing that um god has appointed you to do at this time in your life share with us please thank you sir well my name is peterson once again peterson martial i'm 27 years old and in the beginning of this year's when i started my business um the beginning of january 2021 you know from my young age i've always been like in the business inventor mindset i could recollect from a young age um at the age of like eight years old or nine you know when i could remember my mom losing her cheese and i thought of the idea of having like a tracker or like a gps finder how neat how neat would it be to have a device like that at a young age i was thinking of stuff like that and now today you have the you know the little towel gps trackers or i could remember when my dad used to be a chauffeur and i used to think how would neat would it be to you know have his own app or his own website or business to where all the customers would go strictly through him being self-efficient and self-dependent and now you have companies like uber or lyft so you know from a young age i always was in that mindset thinking of oh what's next what's the next move and thank god he's led me into a couple of businesses um this business that i started this year is called virtual reality factor factory i don't know if you can see this hello yes yeah we can see it we can see it it looks good okay sorry all right thank you so yes with virtual reality factory we're a marketing company and we help local businesses um sell products or services whatever it would be we use uh paid media we use photography we use video we also use online image um paid media can hear me yes yes yes okay okay so yes and i don't know if everybody on here knows what marketing is as simple as the word is it's basically what it is marketing so if you look at a market you have everybody selling different things some people would be selling fruits some people would be selling vegetables some people would be selling meats or clothing you want to be the best person on that market what attracts people things that they could see the the gifts that god gives us gave us things that we could see taste here you know smell things that we could feel you want to attract people this way through your market you want to be the main person on the market with your big sign that's why we have you know billboard board that's why we have radio advertisements that's why we have telemarketers marketing is a essential part into how business works so like i said if you have a hair salon a barber shop if you sell anything i would be able to come through and and help you grow your business i specialize in something that's called customer relationship management which is like uh google reviews or you know taking pictures making sure the customers are happy at the end of the day all right well that is very interesting because when i think about marketing sometimes you think of digital marketing where people run ads on maybe social media um maybe they're doing adwords like on google and facebook so you know just to have you peterson here to kind of open our eyes to another form of marketing i think that is so necessary and i love the perspective he says everyone needs a marketer whether you are a beautician a barber um you know whatever field you're in you're gonna need some services from peterson and i was already thinking man collaboration how can peterson collaborate with a lot of our attendees today um you know that's you know just thinking out loud but peterson that's that's phenomenal you know one of the things that kind of goes full circle as well past the site i was thinking about peterson talking about we all need marketing every facet right and i'm thinking about josh our youngest one so far who dealt with the idea of go and marketing the gospel and kind of like how jesus was the ultimate marketing um individual of everlasting life of his father's kingdom and so that's just powerful um peterson what church do you attend i attend beersheba sva it's located in deerfield deerfield beach i've been going there ever since i was young yes sir and like you said marketing could be used in any fashion i think that us ourselves in the sba community we would need marketing and i would be glad to help out you know we have the we have the parable of the prophets with the talents and even if i don't win the prize money i still would be able to would like to use my talents and assist the federation by marketing the seventh day advances youth message and everything we have to offer you know i think it's essential that we use the internet like the pastor was saying in digital um the digital space to attract more people to a word in the message you know just like mark and matthew says how to make you know disciples of the whole nation the same way you have people out there when there's an event for their birthday or anything they use social media we could use that too whenever there's an event whenever there's an event we it's up to us to use the internet the instagram facebook we have to use these tools to attract more people because you never know who you're going to attract never know who's looking at your profile at day who's going to be like wow that's a great song i love the way they sing the word wow pathfinder what's that oh they see the people the kid the youth playing the drums that might attract them in any any size it's essential that we used to i'll be glad to assist the federation in any way i want to thank peterson so much for his commitment not only to expanding his business and his brand but expanding the brand of this gospel right this everlasting gospel and surrendering himself and saying i'm available to help whomever that's awesome i love that story i love the sister brian has another vendor at her fingertips you know he was definitely you know just saying hey this is how i can continuously like support our church so he's like i want to give back in this way not only to my local church but now at a bigger level so thank you so much peterson for that insight definitely definitely i would like to now just transition there is a um individual that i would love for us to spend some time i would love to just be able to bring tiffany and just a little bit about what exactly she has and what she's doing um in the name of moving forward and doing some things that are really just glorifying the name of jesus in her life so um tiffany if you can come on in we're gonna have a conversation with you and have you just express the goodness of god hi how are you doing well hi i am here um with my mom uh and i've always been my mom in all of my adventures um smart i do have two businesses but today we'll be focusing on one of them uh prior to this or prior to colvin um i am an event planner so i have an event planning business and um that took off based on me doing events small events and weddings and so forth from my local church and for members and work to get spread um and that is how my business began um but when covid hit they were i saw a need for mass there was a like a mask um and so i remember my mom have a sewing machine and my my um dad gave it to her twice a year ago she never really did anything with it so during the pandemic i had to work i had to go out and i was still working junior pandemic but she was home and um i encouraged her to take up the machine and she began to try making um masks because um [Music] it was of course the pandemic she had no training um she went ahead and tried because no one taught her how to sew and that was her being discouraged not wanting to even touch the machine because no she didn't know what to do with it um and when she began she made the first first one and she showed me and after a few tries she has she started to get better and better but um i started to encourage her more to then um start making masks for others um other church members right and so i began to come up with some of the designs for her so that she can then um put this uh put her magic touch to it one of them that i did come up with was um a church mask so these church masks would allow um because these masks now becoming our day-to-day it's been over a year and a plus a year and a half going on two years that we've been in mass and so we have church that are opening up their buildings and uh we wanted to give everyone opportunity to um be able to go back into the building and still be safe but because our smiles are hidden i've um thought it was a great idea that we will make split mask that will then throw their smile behind the mask um the name of our business is cutie mask i'm not sure if you guys um i sent in a quick video um i'm not sure if you guys have that that you can present let's even get video queued up but until that time do you have a sample mask you can hold up for us there tiffany yes some of my favorite one these are that i do wear to church regularly because um i have this one oh wow oh wow okay this one actually matches uh an attire that i have and the dress was quite um longer and um my mom cut the fabric from it and it's i'll wear it together with it or wear with black um this one is a scarf mask which you can i love these they are flared um this was actually made from a scarf so she um anything that you come up with or think of and it pins in the back and and it's secure so when it does hang uh it doesn't fall off of your uh okay some of them we do um i know i have an african attire that i would wear to charge and um she's made his and hers and it matches the skirt that i do have you can see the difference so um i was inspired to do this not only do we started out actually we started out um just by donating to right our members needed it because there was such a need that there weren't even fabrics we couldn't find fabrics to even um sew these so that's how we got the idea of even getting things like uh the scarf because we would layer them so their layer they have an inner layer of protection so um they're not just imperial itself uh and so war began to spread because we began to drop drop off our uh embers that were and didn't have access to masks and so they're they're saying hey um you guys should be should try to make business out of it you know start to sell it others and you know they begin to promote because um it began to become a um conversational piece so when someone sees us with nasa like this whether out and about they will ask it would be it was like a um a a conversation like a break the ice kind of thing and it gave us the opportunity to even invite people i was i was i will tell them um i wonder if you you should see the mass that i have going to church and they would say go to it was always a great opportunity to even invited invite them to um church or even to join us to and so it was you know something small very innovative yeah and i won't even say something small because in this current climate it is something that is essential i love what you said um tiffany you said that it's not just about the design it's actually layered inside so it adds a protection that's needed um and i just want to say if i can or if i may uh mom you are bursting with just so much pride and and i could see it you're sitting there and you're next to your daughter and she's expressing this this great business plan and how you've helped her and i love to see that collaboration between mother and daughter and working to try and give something to someone and it turns into an opportunity to actually grow a business and a brand and so hats off to both of you or should i say mask off to both of you in a safe environment of course um and and just tremendous but you you remind me of lydia like i'm literally i'm listening to this and it reminds me of the story in you know in scripture of the cellar of purple and just thinking about how we can truly use some things and i'll go one step can i go one step further past this side rahab rahab had um we had yarn she had um thread she had she had things on her roof that really spoke to what her passion was so seamstress and so i think it's just tremendous i love seeing the mother daughter aspect there and what they've started to do and what they're doing now absolutely and even proverbs 31 um there are so many different things that can be gleaned from that text about you know just being able to sew find things to do with their hands and you know i kept saying that is so innovative i love just the design i love how they've used material that they've already had um she said that there was a time where they weren't able to find material and that's where innovation is like so powerful and sometimes it comes out of not being able to find resources and using our minds that's why our minds are so powerful um that we can just begin to design and create and put things together and voila you have an automobile voila you have an airplane while all you have these um masks that not only are fashionable but they are protecting people and really drawing people into the gospel hey where are you going with that mask on you cannot be going to work well no i'm going to church where are you going with that mask on you're not just going out to eat or just having a good time but it's leading people to the gospel and leading them to salvation so tiffany and mom i am so inspired and we have to make sure we put their handle inside the and all of our participants handles and how to reach out to them um in our chat box because i know some people are curious how can i rent one of those cars or how can i go be in that studio and do my podcast or make sure that i can click like and subscribe on that channel just to be that number to see this young man prosper um so please put that stuff in our chat box so that people can be connected to what you are bringing here on our show today you're going to be excited pastor sai chantal chantel is here and chantelle has a she's in the building about customization i love it um let's bring it in please please shantae come on in come on i want to hear about i'm customizing and getting things just going where you know she can have them become even more of a personal does that sound interesting a personal relationship welcome welcome and everyone can you hear me hear you perfect loud and clear wonderful wonderful well again um my name is chantel and yes i do have a personalized customizing business um called be unique designs um the reason for this is what started my business started out as a hobby you know with the pandemic you know being at home you know i was bored so i kind of just started dilly daddy you know with arts different crafts just you know trying to let out my creativity um so earlier this year i kind of wanted to turn it into a business and people started asking me well hey can you do this can you do that and um it just kind of went from there i customized tumblers t-shirts paintings um anything that can be customized i pretty much do awesome what i want to do is ask you if you can chantelle do you um give us a name of your business and we want to make sure we can capture that for our listening our viewers so they'll know where they can go and find um you to customize personalize um so i am on instagram and i am on facebook and you can find me under be unique designs it's one word be unique and then it's designed at the end okay all right perfect thank you so so very much we appreciate your time chantelle i want to now if we can ask if we can bring in kathina um kathina i want to hear yeah i want to hear some about kafina's because i i heard that she um is actually customizing things as well and so i want to just kind of hear her story as it relates to her endeavors and her entrepreneurship as well so kaffina are you at the door are you ready to step over the threshold and come spend some time with us and one thing i'll say came out of a hobby you know most of the times you're just doing hobbies kathina's here but they turn into something that you're passionate about so kafina what are you passionate about what brings you here what do we have to know more about you so we can continuously like tell others like man this girl is doing some amazing things you could spend some time explaining the name of the business as well because i i kind of thought something that i read it again i looked at it again so i want to hear from you talk to us please all right all right so my business is called two pack designs uh the two pack is an acronym it means t-shirt world unique prints and custom designs i customize things i specialize in um creativity most times i can look at something and recreate it without a manual or a guide um i'm very good with my hands um my business came from one day my mom and i because we uh go into our business ventures together just like um our previous guest mentioned and we um we went somewhere we were looking for a computer for to get the friend who needed one and in that search we came upon uh someone giving away boxes of t-shirts um they were just plain shirts and we decided to you know i guess capitalize on it and we were we started selling their shirts they were playing so we thought you know why not put a design on it and capitalize even more you know since i'm creative my creativity can flow it can show um the shirt i'm wearing is one of those i didn't personally design it but i did create it um and this was for um my job they wanted it for black history month and i was able to create the uh the design that they wanted and have shirts so they could wear um i'm i kind of consider myself a jack-of-all-trades when it comes to creating creativity or creating things because um i won't say it's easy it teaches you patience because you have to be willing to see it through sometimes it gets tough sometimes it's not as easy as it may seem oh look but the finishing product is always wonderful um just to know that absolutely like it's so fulfilling to know that you know you can just get any random canvas and put your spin to it and to know that there are people that put their trust in you like at work they said hey kathina i need you to put your touch on this and then you just go and you do the most and essentially like you put your heart into it um and i love how you say you're the jack of all trades but i want to say you're the jackie of all trades how about that um no yeah but that's so inspiring um it's so inspiring to know that people they can use their talents their gifts and it's something that can be objects within your home and you can partner up with people within your own family and work together for the greater cause just to make someone smile to make someone happy um and just to do something that's positive in our community so thank you so much kaffina thank you thank you for having me awesome awesome pass aside i want to now shift if we can to speak to a young artist

so we want to invite you in now cynthia and we want to talk a little bit about your gift and how you use your gift to glorify god and how god has glorified himself through you so my name is cynthia i know miss lindsay from my school anyway she's a chaplain so yeah how i really got into art and all that was watching my brother like i would always observe him drawing all that but what really made me take that step would seem somebody my age actually drawing so i actually gave a go for it so from then i started to love drawing i started to build like my love drawing started to go as i watched cartoons and all that it started to grow so i was like why not make this a thing why not help me why not grow my talent by using by using the town that god gave me to help others get close to him so i would do like christian comics like me talking about how god is good and all of that so i will do all that just to you know share my gift with others but yeah that's a little bit about me so far amen amen amen when did you first realize you had this gift um what age um sixth grade i believe that was around like when i was around like 13. i'm like 13 at like i was in sixth grade while i actually had interest in it that was the age i already took part of yeah i have a question for you cynthia um and it's good to see you how do you share this gift is it through tick tock is it through instagram

to amaya now i really want to see what email has to tell us she is still planning she's organizing she's strategizing and so in my if you are here please come in we want to have a word with you um this evening we want to make sure that everyone gets to know who you are how you are and where you are hello everybody oh my god um i'm a i am a an entrepreneur in the making you know um i am starting

know some ideas about what clothing should i start with and how to grow amen i like that and that's a good place to be that's a really good place to be um you know because in order for many of these entrepreneurs to come before us today they were right where you were um they were they had times where they had to plan um and plans are very important because the plan can you know you can always change the plan but you want to make sure that you have something that is outlined that keeps you honest with maybe the materials that you select um you know you can kind of have like man like i can't wait for this new fall collection or this winter collection to come out um and when you're in that ideation phase all of that can be um happening in that moment so let's let's let's put something out there when do you hope when do you hope to launch we want to pray that through for you that when you put that date out there um we're gonna hope and pray that you're launching and that people can find you and support you when do you hope to launch you know um i'm actually hoping to launch next year you know because like this year has been hard on me you know school has been a pain you know and i hadn't been in school lately due to i caught coping you know um but i'm good you know i didn't really feel this i'm glad that you're good i didn't feel the symptoms of calling but i just had it you

table i'm confident amaya i'm confident that they will be inspired and 2022 is gonna be a bright year for many of you um as we put our best foot forward we don't know what the future holds but we know who holds the future and as you keep those plans going what's one bible text that you hold in your heart that gives you inspiration for maybe those plans that you're putting out there um i know the vital verse but i don't you know it's all good we're not here quizzing you maya i don't know where i i don't really remember where it's from but like do not be dismayed you know think forward um god

want to share with you amaya um i love it do not be dismayed um but i want to prophesy this over your life it's jeremiah 29 11. you spoke a lot about plans today um and you're probably familiar with this one it says for i know the plans i have for you declares the lord plans to prosper amaya and not to harm amaya plans to give amaya a hope and a future so i just speak that over your life over your 2022 and i know the best days are ahead of you congrats amaya thank you amen amen god bless you amaya um pass aside i want to we're getting ready to close soon and what i want to do is i want to open up both doors so we've been opening up the one door so far you know the single door i want to open up the double doors right now to this virtual room and i want to invite everyone to come in and i just want to just do a quick little just you know um conversation as we get ready to close out so if everyone can just kind of barge in right now all at once that'll be awesome almost like a you know a black friday kind of a sale going on right now with our virtual right jump on in right come on in be a part of this we want to see everyone all at once we man i'm so full right now i'm full because we got so many different um ends of the spectrum we have people who've been in business for years to the amayas who are just trying to figure out their plans and to get their businesses off the ground we have people who are rebranding relaunching so that they've been in it for a while but they found opportunities to make what they do better um from the innovation oh my goodness those masks i can't get my mind off those masks and just the creativity i love the collaboration we've seen today as well we've seen some great collaborations so i'm gonna ask everyone if you can light up the screen with your smiles um you know turn your cameras back on you know obviously wipe the crumb away first and then turn the cameras back on and we just want to simply just ask a couple couple quick questions to you and that and this is just something that pastor sinai um we have some questions about so saying you know what let's ask these groups of individuals if they um have an answer for the question so first question is this you can just kind of blurt it out just want to hear from you netflix or hulu we're just trying to figure that out from everyone netflix or hula netflix netflix okay all right fine all right netflix for the win there you go they get the win pass aside you asked this question early and we got some feedback but i want to hear again tick tock or instagram instagram instagram [Music] i have this question pastor i'm kind of wondering um and i know we all have a little bit of a preference here but i'm just going to ask this question can i ask this question maybe uh well i'm going to i'm throwing out some counties i want to hear what people have to say i'm going to throw up you know i want to hear palm any palm beach county in the house anyone palm beach who represents palm beach county why are you making a face i already know this now right someone made a face bro broward county when they say miami-dade county that's what you could tell oh mercy yeah a little bit of disconnect with the miami-dade county versus county but um we'll talk about that well here's a real question and i really want to find out this this is the thing i want to ask you guys you're getting ready to leave um obviously we see ourselves transitioning right a lot of a lot of you have started your business and you've seen some change over the last year and a half or so and so pastor seina we're having this discussion and we want to find out just what do you see as far as reintegrating your your vision back into the church um into a you know physical place versus the virtual space that we're in right now um and you know what do you enjoy seeing as it relates to that um bringing your business idea your your entrepreneurship into that physical space versus the virtual space um help us out a little bit if you could all at once right um i think spiritually has made it more easier than physically in my opinion um you know physically you gotta go drive many places maybe drive all the way north and come back south you know all these business trips while virtually you can just come into a zoo meeting they'll send the link out to your management team and tell them what we have plans for the future that's my opinion i love i like that i like that i like that anyone else i did not quite hear the question okay i'll i'm going to ask um i'll ask it this way we've gone into a virtual world virtually with everything now we've heard about school we've done church obviously and many of your businesses are centered around that virtual aspect um how do you guys see your business vision moving forward in the virtual space versus what we're used to in the physical space um of being you know person-to-person contact things of that nature well for me personally i feel like with the virtual um aspect of it we're able to reach out to more people rather than um with the physical sense you know we can only extend so far physically but virtually we can reach out to for example someone in a whole another country without actually having to leave the comfort of your living room or your office or wherever so you know it's kind of like you know you have the opportunity to reach out to more people compared to just reaching out to one or two people physically that's real that's real well said well said um passed aside i'm gonna sign off with this there's a story in the bible right and it's about this brotherhood right and you have these two brothers and they have to present something and they both present what they have to the lord right and the lord respects one offering or one sacrifice and doesn't respect the other and the idea is you know many of you know i'm talking about these brothers cain and abel so my question to each one of our entrepreneurs um or part of our panel today is when you package your business model how are you packaging that to present it before the lord so that he has respect of it and he accepts the offering that you're presenting that sacrifice that was a heavy one they were like i thought we're talking about netflix that was heavy i mean it's food for thought um you know and that's for even our audience out there in the virtual world to sit and process that you know the things that we do on this earth um you know they hold a temporary value but the things that we do for god they last they have eternal value and that's the message that we want to send home to everyone that you know as we're living in these times they're so uncertain and we know that we're not putting our flag in the sand saying this is a permanent thing that you know we want to be here forever i mean i like what we do here on earth but not that bad because i know what's to come is even greater um and but you know i know that what's to come is greater and that everything that we do i pray that it's always to god's name honor and glory and that we're offering our best our best sacrifice to him so thank you all so much for your time and for being a part of this space we really truly appreciated you we do and i've learned a lot i've grown a lot i'm inspired i'm truly inspired and passed aside thank you so much for um allowing me to share this space with you and to learn with you um and from youth quite frankly as well and so at this time we're going to have closing prayer and we're going to ask everyone in virtual land and in the physical land to join us in our closing prayer father in heaven we thank you so much you are an awesome god a kind god a good god lord you have shown us through your children by diversifying talents and giving their lord skill sets and collaboration dear lord and relationships and a platform their god for your young people to design be creative their lord be

you're probably gonna say i don't have any talent i have news for you everyone has a talent not too long ago my prior partners and myself we pray that god should reveal our talents to us because listen we're a little bit lazy and we need to be about our father's business and we thought we needed to be preaching and everybody knows i can't sing so we were thinking what is the talent that god has blessed me with that i should do something i'm still trying to figure mine out in the meanwhile i'm using what god has given me and it is just the talk so i will be talking my way into the kingdom of god and i'll be ha talking to others so that they too can make it into the kingdom well if you're looking for talent you're in the right place this evening and speaking of talent we have a young

viewers might be blessed and will be led to glorify you we ask these things in the mighty name of jesus amen [Music] [Music] greater than your greatest experience you just have to have faith and do as he commands follow me cause when my god makes promises he keeps them yeah i know this because my bible tells me so you the creation by james walden johnson and god stepped out on space and he looked around and said i'm lonely i'll make me a world and as far as the eye of god could see darkness covered everything blacker than a hundred midnight down in a separate squad then god smiled and the light broke and the darkness rolled up on one side and the light started shining on the other and god said that's good then god reached out and took the light in his hand and god rolled the light around in his hands until he made the sun and he set the sun up blazing in the heavens and the light that was left from making the sun god gathered it up in a shining ball and flooded against the darkness spangling the night with the moon and stars then down between the darkness and the light he hurled the world and god said that's good then god himself stepped down the sun was on his right hand and the moon was on his left the stars were clustered about his head and the earth was under his feet and then what he had walked and where he had trod his footsteps hollowed the valleys out and bulged the mountains up then he stopped and looked and saw at the earth was hot and buried so god stepped over the edge of the world and he sped up the seven seas he batted his eyes and the lightning flashed he clapped his hands and the thunders rolled the waters above the earth came down the cooling waters came down then the green grass sprouted and the leather red flowers blossomed the pine tree pointed his finger to the sky and the oak spread out his arms the legs cuddled in the huddles of the ground and the rivers ran down to the sea and god smiled again and the rainbow appeared and curled itself around his shoulder then god raised his arm and waved his hand over the sea and over the land and he said bring forth bring forth and quicker than god could drop his hand fishes and fowls and beasts and birds swam the rivers and the seas run the forest and the woods and split the air with their wings and god said that's good then god walked around and god looked around on all that he made he looked at his son he looked at his moon and looked at his little stars he thought his world was all its little things and god said are lonely still then god sat down on the side of the hill where he could think by deep wide river god sat down with his head in his hands god thought and thought so he thought i'll make me a man up from the bed of the river god scooped the clay and by the bank of the river he kneeled him down and there the great god almighty who lit the sun and fixing the sky who flung the stars to the most far corner of the night who rallied the earth in the middle of his hand this great god like a mammy bending over her baby kneeled down in the dust toiling over a lump of clay until he shaped it into his own image then into it he blew the breath of life and man became a living soul wednesday i tune into or wednesday week wednesday night reset and there he was preaching and i'm like did he trade him to get more so now he's singing he's preaching he's acting oh you

were singing even if a pin drop they could hear now did you know that only the talented of the talents could sing without music and your voice rings such melody so i'm so happy that you made it here armani to really echo that sentiment and i really think that's a testimony i just want to say i appreciate you and your family because i know the family is also going through a lot but with a song like that to say you know my name no matter what comes upon me no matter the fire that burned me the battle can't turn can't turn me no mountain can stop me all because jesus knows your name my name all our names thank you so much armani all right you want to sit beside me all right go go go go no you probably wanted to sit beside me but you're so pretty you need to you know keep it going if you have another song for us we'll take it this evening because the message that i'm sure the message will be one that someone out there in virtual land will want to hear now remember i told you before that i interviewed kinsley last night who couldn't be here well uh technology has now come upon our interview and so i want to share that with you i caution you to listen to the words i will have the questions made mention off at the bottom of his interview and then i want you to just listen to how he responds to these questions i am sure you would agree with me that this young man is certainly being used by god my talents are i'm good at public speaking for example i spoke at two different churches and i've spoken in front of different crowds also i'm good at sports such as basketball football and etc different ways i can use my talents to speak about god is by using my public speaking to speak about god in front of different crowds such as preaching speaking and etc i'm involved with jesus because without jesus i wouldn't be here today and i'm constantly praying to jesus 24 7 and i read my bible for example my favorite my favorite bible verse is psalms 23 the creation is important to me because it teaches me about patience determination and to finish what you've started the theme hallelujah troubles don't last means with jesus by our sides our problems don't mean anything [Music] you heard that last one right so i ask you okay so the theme for federation this year is hallelujah and i didn't emphasize hallelujah hallelujah troubles don't last always you heard the young man hallelujah it's like he's glorifying god he couldn't say it the way i said it hallelujah troubles don't like hallelujah troubles don't last always because with god it's like you say with god in the vessel you can smile at the storm amen beautiful talents that we are unveiling here in this part of the vineyard well you know in uh christ's objective lesson the spirit of prophecy ellen white says talents however few must be put to use and are we not seeing that this evening well you'll continue to see more especially from our next talent kadena who is 14 years old and he or she is from the first sda church in laksa hachi and they're going to that person he's going to play for us and not only will we hear singing but we will also hear instrument as well please listen to this [Music] okay now before kadena comes we're going to be listening she her video should be there but i guess one of the things i wanted us to do and we'll pause as we go along now we're going to hear a sound and then you're going to guess what the instrument is right we're going to guess what the instrument with and is and i'll also be interacting with those on youtube i can see lighthouses youtube but i can't see the others um but we'll play one more time um nestle and i guess i will just wait give a little pause for two seconds and then just type in the chat what instrument you think this is and then of course we will hear from kadena with her instrumental singing or song and we'll learn more about god singing all right so he or god's instrument here's the first one played for us kinsley [Music] now guess the instrument which which instrument is this i hear organ i hear piano the right one is let me see if i see anyone online saying anything play for us now nestle let's see if they were right the correct instrument is church organ that's right here's the next one listen i want those online to interact as well guess the instrument that's it [Music] i hear french horn i hear one musician say french shorn everyone is settling on french horn trombone someone said trombone okay nestle let's hear what it oregon is that was the other one before here's the next one i think i'm getting it late here that was it someone said the little ringy thing the little ringy thing definitely no it's a bell but what kind of bell a cowbell yes you are correct it is a cowbell play for us nestle [Music] just three more to go number four [Music] this is a popular one which one is this violin someone said an alarm clock that's definitely an instrument i don't know if it's a musical instrument but harmonica okay we're here harmonica well the winner is here's the fifth one [Music] what did you hear i'm hearing trumpet what that's it you're pretty sure it's trumpet let me check my unliners yep someone said it was a fiddle fiddle a fiddle you know a little fiddle [Music] all right the winner and what is the what is the the instrument nestle [Music] trumpet and or last one [Music] yeah it sounds like a banjo yes i'm hearing everyone say sabandro i've never even heard that one but that sounds good oh yes that's it that's it reveal it for me nestle [Music] you know there are several different types of instrument and when i when i hear these instruments it makes me think of psalm 33 verse 2 that says give thanks to the lord make melody to him with the harp of ten strings i wonder what instrument kadena would be playing for us this evening let's listen [Music] but we could continue playing this one but i think kadena has her video [Music] [Music] oh oh [Music] [Music] okay we're going to tune in to kadena in a little while i'm sure you enjoyed hearing those instruments makes me wonder what instruments we'll have in heaven or will this be our instrument i don't know what will be up there but i know i may not be able to sing like peyton or armani but i know when i get to heaven i'm going to have a voice like none other because this will become perfect amen well this next guest is also she may not be able to sing she may not play an instrument she may not be able to recite poem but god has blessed her with a unique talent and it's that of an artist and now a writer see i've been trying to write a book for the last five years and this next talent wrote her book in the last five months right and i'm just amazed because i was speaking to her mom and you know she informed me that uh this my daughter just loves she enjoys writing and i'm telling you let her write a book and i sent her a link of how to get to write in a book and let her showcase her artwork and i was amazed that in less than two days i was told that her book is on the way and she let you know she gave me a glimpse of it and i'm like i can't wait to read the rest of it and we'd like to show you more this evening i am speaking none other than sephora eduard sephora is in i think she's now in the sixth or seventh grade and i have her online to speak with us today so sephora are you there let us talk to you sephora while sephora is getting set up i am going to show you some of her artwork and your you will be blown away by the concept behind it i don't necessarily understand art especially the fine arts but the concept is just beautiful let's see it let's see it nestle let's play the powerpoint with her artwork and hopefully she gets on and we could have her comment on some of these artworks [Music] so i'll i'll i could read it along so if you go back up i could read it so some of her viewers would see it so she said hi let me see if i can get it on here too so sephora's artwork inspired by things and people around me god's creation my name is sephora edward and i enjoy painting drawing and writing stories this is just of the few things i have done recently and i am inspired by the beauty of god's creation all around me so this one is she entitled the second coming of christ and she says one day jesus will come and save me from evil yes sephora and then she has the flying caterpillars midway process the butterfly caterpillars with beautiful rainbow wings concept the rainbow ring wings represent the sign god gave us that he will never destroy the earth again and then a hill in the country far away this painting was inspired by a song that has the lyrics there's a hill in a country far away when sunset comes on friday sabbath is here the plane holding a flag so you have to look carefully the plane hole in a flag says jesus is like jesus coming on the sabbath and then she has dashan park a few sabbaths ago my family and i went to the park for bible class and aym and as i was seated under a tree there was another big one in front of me and i was just thinking about god's beauty it was captured here of course she belongs to two different tribe of parents first one i think her mother is a father is from haiti so she captures the haitian girl and this was inspired by my dad's birth country haiti and you better not leave mom out oh yep definitely left mom out but i know she has one for mom i know it may not have made it on that powerpoint but i saw it myself so sephora wrote a book or it's in the process she said it's not finished and i'd like to share the pages of her book to you right now i'll try to read it i wish she was on so she would read it but we'll try to get her on soon so sephora's book definitely can't see that okay so my almighty savior she said kayla matthews was a tall black oh i can read it from my ipad oh yeah let's come closer so she said kayla matthews was a tall black 13 year old girl who loved making acrylic painting kayla wasn't a great person though according to her family she'd steal smoke and so much more she never joined her family for dinner worship or anything and kayla was so rude to her parents she'd yell at them for wanting her to spend time with them and look at kayla michael kayla's father calls her down for a talk kayla you know it's really hard for your mother and me to cope with you staying in your room during family worship and family dinners why don't you give yourself to the lord why would i i don't know if that's the voice that um sephora had in mind for the character you guys are believing in a person who is not even real if this so-called god is real tell him to come out of the house kayla groan come to our house you may not see him but he is here in spirit michael says spirit hello are you there well it looks like god isn't here kayla says laughing non-stop stop it look i just need you to come down for dinner and worship today and after that you don't have to come michael explains fine i will do this for you guys kayla exhaustingly replies kayla rides her bike to a nearby park usually there will be a lot of kids and and there were two kids were playing football and as one of the kids lily throws the football it accidentally hit kayla once the ball hit kayla her face turns with anger hey kayla screams do you know how to be careful i'm so sorry for hitting you i i didn't mean to lily stuttered kayla slaps the child so do you plan on going to church with us says kayla's mother with a frown on kayla's face she replies when will you guys ever stop asking me that question you know talking about this so-called god makes me bored maybe talking about something else would entertain me so this is my last time saying this so listen carefully i am not a believer of god yep that's it we had to stop somewhere because you'd want to see the finished product wouldn't you so i can't wait that's me my big moji i can't wait to see the rest or to hear more she had more but i didn't want to evade on revealed uh too much of sephora's book she's building up the plot and i'm sure the climax kmart is coming and she will land the boat with kayla most likely uh giving her life to christ or being redirected is she on for me to talk with her no okay so we're going to move on and um if uh the federation will have it one day we'll very soon i'm sure we will be able to sit down with sephora and then after sunset she'll have her books line up outside because i i feel as though it will be pretty soon next we have a young lady 12 years old and she belongs to the new hope seventh-day adventist church she has been performing since she was a year old now i asked her aym leader jade to introduce her because i know that as a young ay leader herself she must see qualities in her junior youth and so here is jade introducing zoe as our next talent zoe is a friendly and loving young lady who attends a new host sam dave into school and is currently in the fifth grade she loves the lord and always wears a smile on her face if i were to introduce zoe to the world based on experience and the accounts of others i would say that she is always willing to use her gift of singing to share the hearts of her listeners [Music] is deep [Music] when is choice is [Music] is [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] is [Music]

how old are you if you don't mind me asking 12. you're 12 years old do you enjoy um reciting poems yes can you sing too a little i get nervous a lot you get nervous a lot but you don't you're not nervous with poems do you write your own poems i can try but sometimes they're not the best you're not the best but you know the best po um what would say poets start out by by trying and then you know with poems it doesn't have to be lyrical or rhyme it's just you expressing yourself in that art all right now madison look at the back of my shirt what do you see there can you see it yes what do you see what would jesus do wwjd what would jesus do see this shirt at least most of the young people at lighthouse i want them to have or we've tried to give uh one of these shirts in their hands and they wear it and i want them to always think before they do anything and even if so they're walking and if they're doing something that they shouldn't be doing at least they know they're representing christ what would jesus do now tell me if jesus was here today and he hears you reciting upon one what do you think he'd say well done well done well i think that's exactly what will take place here you will do it and you will do it to the glory of god you think jesus was a poet you know what now that i think about it yes yes okay tell me an instance why do you think so because when he was doing his parables man yes very very like informative yes it says and deep deep right would you say he's one of your role models or maybe your favorite poet absolutely amen thank god i'm glad to hear that well why don't you go ahead and reveal your talent unveil your talent to those in virtual land you could sit or you could stand there whichever makes you more comfortable okay sit good evening everyone in keeping with the theme trouble don't last always i wanted to share two poems with you i hope that you enjoy them and that they encourage you in some way lean on him by marian jones sometimes in all our lives we have a cross to bear we think we're on our own and long for someone to care we forget that god is watching waiting to guide us through he understands how we feel is sharing our sorrows too only he can see the future knows what plans are in store and with his grace and power he opens a brand new door lean on him to guide you for he is holding the key solving all of life's problems in order that we can be free poem number two is i turn to jesus by sharing keisha bird sometimes i get discouraged and a tear comes to my eye sometimes life doesn't seem fair and i can't understand why sometimes i want to give up when things aren't going right sometimes it seems like a waste of time not really worth the fight those times when i turn to jesus he listens to my prayers and suddenly the way is easier the problems not so hard to bear he is a comfort when the way is rough through his word i find relief i am reminded that he is ever near on his name i have believed he doesn't promise earthly treasures if we follow in his way he does promise to fulfill our needs each and every day so let me walk a little closer lord i know you love me so when problems are overwhelming i have a friend who knows amen amen and i like the preface to your poem you said in keeping with the theme and the theme is hallelujah troubles don't last always what a beautiful i want you to read that last verse again and i'm gonna say hallelujah troubles don't last always when problems are overwhelming i have a friend who knows hallelujah trouble don't last always amen because i have a friend who knows thank you so much so much for using your talent of speech and recital to tell someone this evening that god is always near thank you all right now we had poetry we had baker we had singing we had a whole gamut of poems or um talents and and people who are just glorified young people junior youth who are just giving god the glory through their talents we've come to the end of our program and i'd love to say we've saved the best for last but all all our talents this evening we're just simply the best because they're being used by jesus the next person the last talent you will hear of this evening is by a young person uh kaivon right and kaivon will be sharing our vesper thought through the form of preaching he's going to share with us a message and i've heard a lot about him i've met him in person i know he's quite serious about his relationship with christ you know when asked on the registration form how long have you been preaching kai once said i've been preaching ever since i was born i can't imagine what take place so you know when mom and dad probably wants to sleep yeah taiwan go to sleep stop the preaching you know just shaking trying to get him back to bed they think he's crying but he's not crying because kaivan is preaching they just couldn't understand the language so i reached out to the family who adores him very well and have nurtured and brought him up in the admonition of christ and i asked them if there's one word that you could use to describe kyron what would that word be here's what they had to say hyphen has the attributes of leadership taiwan is unique very amazing awesome wow all right he's ready you could go right to him write to him for our vesper thought this afternoon i like was to take our bibles and turn to the book of job job chapter one verses six and seven job chapter one verse six says now there was a day when the sons of god came to present themselves before the lord and satan also came among them verse 7 says and lord said to satan from where do you come so satan asked the lord and said from going to and fro on the earth and walking back on it going to verse 9 and says satan says to god does joe fear god for nothing have you not made a hedge around him around this household and around all that he has on every side you have blessed the work of his hands and his possessions have increased in the land but now stretch out your hand and touch all that he has and he will surely curse you to your face verse 12 says verse 12 god says to satan behold all that he has is in your power only do not lay a hand on him and so satan went out in the presence of the lord forever thought this evening i'll let you speak on the title i'm right here i'm right here let us pray hey father we don't want to thank you for all that you have done for us so far bringing us to this very moment in time well we're able to dive into your word once more we actually be with me and let your message your word be spoken through me today lord and let them hear your voice and not mind lord thank you for all that you have done know what you would do in jesus name amen job was enjoying his life in job chapter one verse three it says that he had 500 yoke of oxen 3 000 camels 500 female donkeys and a very large household so it was very clear to see that joseph was job was a very wealthy man he was enjoying his health and his wealth he had seven sons and three daughters really big family however job did not forget that all of his riches all of his wealth his food his clothes he did not forget that all of his blessings came from god so he'll so at the end of the day starts and finish he would give god the praise and the glory and honor why because he deserved it job was enjoying his life knowing that every success that he made god was behind it and god was behind it all but if we go back to verse job chapter one verse um verse 11 verses 9 to 12 we see that satan has taken note of job's loyal behavior towards god we see that job has we see that satan has been taking notes of job and how he has been faithful to god no matter what the situation has been and satan suggests a challenge saying that you if you take away everything that he has his riches his wealth his family if you take away all of that he will surely turn his back on you the lord himself already knew what type of man joke was and so he permitted satan to continue with this challenge with only one condition that was not to kill joe and so satan went to begin this challenge now we go over to job chapter 1 verse 13. and we read there in the new king james version now there was a day where his sons and daughters were eaten and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house and a messenger came to job and said the oxen were plowing and the donkeys feeding beside them when the serbians raided them and took them away indeed they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword and i alone have escaped to tell you and while that servant was speaking verse 16 says that another one came and said the fire of god fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants and consumed them and i alone have escaped to tell you and while that servant was speaking verse 17 says that i never another servant came along and said that chaldeans formed three bands and raided the camels and took them away yes and killed the sermons with the edge of the sword and i alone have escaped to tell you and while he was still speaking another servant came see keep in mind that satan the objective for satan here was trying to get job to break he was trying to get job to turn his back on god so what satan was trying to do here the game plan for satan was that he was trying to make the situation tough for job make it look as if god was the problem here so with that being said we look at verse 18 another servant came and said your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine at their oldest brother's house and suddenly a great wind came from across the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house and it fell on the young people and they are dead and i alone have escaped tell you ladies and gentlemen i'm not a father i'm a parent but can you imagine the pain and the despair joe must have felt what he heard this news like in less than two minutes in less than three minutes i should say job's financial life just went down the drain losing his family business if you will but then here comes the worst news a parent could ever imagine all their children dead enlist in a heartbeat imagine see the thing that joke does next it's almost ironic because keep in mind job lost almost everything and what he does next is it's almost ironic remember remember what satan is trying to do here is that satan is trying to get job to turn his back on god but i want you to take your bible turn to job chapter 1 21. and this is what job said naked i came from my mother's womb and naked shall i return there the lord gave and the lord has taken away blessed blessed be the name of the lord ladies and gentlemen job is a legend here joel has lost everything financially he has lost his family business and he has lost his children and he is soon to lose his health but what joe's job does is that he shaves his head he gets on the floor he gets on the ground he lifts his hands and he starts praising god see just because we're having trying moments just because we're having difficult times and a difficult test doesn't mean that we shouldn't start praising god because you see the thing is some people think that we should only give god the praise when we have food on the table sometimes people think that we should only give god praise one way when we have the the perfect clothes on the backs when we have the latest shoes and the latest um latest phones and the latest get game consoles some of us think that we should only give god the praise and when we got the best education and we're living life at the fullest some of us think that we should only give god praise when life's going good not bad but joe joe he lost it all he still found the time to get on the ground and start lifting his hands and start praising god see no matter how bad our situation may be joe taught us just stay loyal and faithful to god because it pays off it really does and so as we close off this vesper thought and as we start another week just remember no matter what the week brings and no matter what the future brings god is always right there god bless amen wow if that didn't go with the theme for this evening i don't know what else would have well they all the talent did but that's quite profound i can't think of anyone else too in the bible who had it quite as bad as job but like kaivan uh tells us we too can rejoice we may be going through whatever we're going through but we can lift our hands up like job and say hallelujah troubles don't last always i know you would want us to show you more this evening but the sun has set and like one of my faithful a.y supporters always say we're not going into sunday worship so we're closing out but there's a lot more talent that we would want to show you this evening so because i know you're hungering for more we'll give you just one more and so i want to introduce to you again we did it before but we need not close without um kate kadina doing her piece as well so i want to introduce to you kadena 14 year old who is also who is from the first sba church of laxahachi and she will be ministering to you through song and accompanying instrument here is kadena hello my name is karina green and i attend the lox actually grows adventist church i have chosen to sing a song today and i hope that it really does touch you i've been singing for probably as long as i remember and it has really helped me not only monthly but spiritually so i hope that you are blessed by my choice of song [Music] wonderful merciful save your preciously demorant friend who would have thought that a lamb could rescue the souls of man oh you rescue the souls of man [Music] you offer hope when our hearts have hopelessly lost all right oh we've hopelessly lost the way you are the one that we praise and you are the one we adore [Music] oh for [Music] you are the one that we praise and you are the one we are [Music] [Music] oh our hearts always [Applause] [Music] oh my insulin faithfully loving your room here in the weakness you find us falling before your throne oh we're following me for your throne you are the one that we praise and you are the one we adore you give a healing and grace our hearts always hunger for oh our hearts always [Applause] [Music] you are the one that we praise you are the one we adore cause give [Music] [Applause] amen amen what a spiritual high for us to end on and i s so i want to borrow some of the words that kaiwan's family described him and just used to describe all the other talents that we heard here this evening i did see leaders i saw people who were unique awesome trustworthy and dynamic and with a powerful closing like kadena just did reminding us that all the power all the praise all the adoration is for the one christ jesus himself because he give the healing and the grace that our hearts along for there's one other person that i really want to recognize and that is kenneth griffiths if you were on during the four o'clock section 4 p.m section then you would have probably heard from him but all the transitions that you saw going to the next talent and so forth was his doing and i told him that you know he's so talented and that needs to be made known so he's using his talent to glorify god in that manner when he enhanced our program this evening with smooth transitions from one talent to the next and so kenneth i just want to thank you for assisting me in making that possible uh this evening on behalf of the federation executive body we just want to thank everyone who were part of the program this evening and especially to our virtual viewers for tuning in on whatever platform and to our federation executive on behalf of those who tune in i just want to say thank you for blessing our hearts this evening with such a wonderful planned program and a magnificent theme that hallelujah troubles don't last always bow your heads with me then as i pray to close god and our father we're rejoicing this evening we're saying hallelujah for the reminder through songs and poems and um just the different talents lord god that this or time on earth is but a little while and pretty soon we're going home where we could be just mesmerized and just be taken aback by heavenly singing and rejoicing and just praising and worshiping you day in day out father we are glorifying you this morning because you're the one who made this possible we're thanking you for the messages that we've heard the ones that we've placed on our hearts the ones that we will live out in our daily lives and the reminder oh god that with you in our vessel we can smile at the storm be with us lord for those of us who are here and we may need to travel allow your angels to travel with us and for every viewer online on whatever platform i pray lord god that the holy spirit may be with them and their family their household and in everything that they do and say may they do so to the glory of god forgive us of our sins lord they are many but we want you to know that our desire is to serve you wholeheartedly grant unto us the things that we've not asked but you know are good for us we ask these things in jesus precious name with thanksgiving amen all right thank you everyone for joining again i have been your host melody walker-brown and it's been a
