You have the Audacity to Take Back…Halloween!!
Gospel Slam 09…Reclaiming what is already GOD’s!
I am truly blessed to be the vessel that GOD chose to launch LouisvilleGospel.com!
It was just in conversation at one of the staff meetings that we came up with Gospel Slam. What started as a spoken word event…quickly morphed into an event that families could come out together and experience…No Tricks…Just Heavenly Treats!
Let me say that when GOD gives you a vision and you stay…FOCUSED… on the VISION, nothing can STOP IT!! Groups signed on, Sponsors signed up all while the devil was getting madder and madder. The devil started attacking everyone associated with LouisvilleGospel.com and Gospel Slam 09. Naysayers became more prevalent, relationships were fractured..but not broken, but we stayed on the course.
On the day of the event, literally the devil threw everything he could at us to get us down…BUT TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!! GOD SHOWED UP…AND SHOWED OUT!!! As only GOD would do, the event touched lives and it made a powerful statement to the Louisville, KY community. GOD even had the local newspaper to show up…we didn’t ask, and the photographer commented, ” This gave me goosebumps!” YOU GO GOD…
After everyone had left one of my partners and I were doing a recap, what was right, what we would do different, any disappointments and just as we finished, GOD sent an angel by to tell us not to worry about any of the events that happened, but to rejoice on the fact that we had people…actually give up the tradition… and come to enjoy GOD in all HIS glory!
GOD is truly Awesome!!!
