Your Healing Depends on This!
I don’t know who needs to hear this but getting up is going to be one of the hardest things you’ll do today. You, the one who has to make funeral arrangements, or deal with the grief that’s still heavy. You, the one who has to face the reality of the relationship ending. You, the one looking at the debt that didn’t disappear while you tossed and turned last night. You, the one with a sickness…

She’s Here!!
Hey book babes. I know I’ve been neglecting y’all … I sorry. Do you forgive me? You do because you love me. 😝💚 But, you’d be glad to know … I RELEASED A NEW BOOK! Yes honey! Now, this book is heavy as it deals with trauma (sexual assault). I needed to put it out there so that you aren’t triggered by words on a screen. I say this with each book, but this one stretched me. See, most of the…

Daily Devotional - 10/19/17 "Sifting process!"
You do all you can and it stills feel like you have not done enough. You go to church, not every Sunday but more than you used to. You can’t go to bible study because you work but you have started to read your bible more. You give a little bit towards tithes, you’re working your way up. You’ve cut off all those folk who only call you to fill a need. You don’t lie as much as you used too. You’ve…
Breathe
When tragedy happens, we tend to question things. We question God, ourselves, the air because what do you mean they’re gone, I have cancer, my car is totaled, I’m being laid off, I have to move … what? It’s also during these times that anger rises because we don’t understand. Without understanding, all we have is anger, confusion and probably cuss words. Why me/us, why now or even what did I do…

Happy New Year!
I pray you have the year you deserve! The year that God has designed, you’ve desired and the one you trust Him to guide. Thank you for rocking with Lakisha, Lakisha, the Author, and Temple Church all 2025! Thank you for showing up, supporting, sowing, sharing, and praying. Thank you for the invitations received, new relationships, and fellowships. More than anything, I thank God for His…
We're still saying YES!
February 4, 2024, Temple Church stepped out on faith. We didn’t start with 100 people and a large bank account. We began with $500, the faith of Pastor Kisha, her husband Willie, and 14 people who said yes to #TempleChurch. Today, we’re still saying yes with our very first giving campaign: #buildHER. Because of the consistent generosity of our members and friends—people who give faithfully,…

What do you do when every day it feels like you’re in the fight of your life? You fight!

Thanksgiving + Grief
Yes, it’s Thanksgiving but somebody is already full from the heaviness and tears of grief. You’re sitting alone or maybe you’re surrounded by family, yet you still feel as though you’re by yourself. Grief is tugging hard on your heart and you’re trying. You’ve put on a brave face to cook. You smile and nod when someone says something. You sing along with the songs. You even have your outfit laid…

Some of you are fighting CPTSD and you don’t even recognize the signs. What’s CPTSD? Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Understand. I’m no expert. In fact, I learned about and researched this while writing #AlmostDestroyed. But what I’ve learned is, we can experience CPTSD from trauma, past relationships, our childhood, witnessing abuse, infidelity, religious hurt, disease, financial trauma,…

Declare this over your life …
I REFUSE TO ALLOW MY PAST, WHAT THEY DID & SAID, WHAT I’VE LOST, HOW THEY LABELED ME, WHAT I’VE DONE AND ENDURED TO ROB ME OF WHAT GOD HAS FOR ME!! Today, I am reclaiming my power, my voice, my place, and my God-given identity, so that I no longer walk in shame, but leap with the faith, joy, and assurance that I am who I am because of whose I am. Therefore, allow me to reintroduce…

You got this, girl!
Eleven years ago, I preached my first sermon. “Called, not cursed.” Today, I’m still standing on this declaration because (and I can be honest) ministry is hard, tedious, doesn’t always pay well, takes sacrifice, time, sleep and sometimes gives people the audacity to try you. However, even with all of these things, I’d still say yes to God. In fact, I wish I hadn’t waited so long to answer Him.…
Treat the problem …
What if you were to treat the pain and not the problem? What do you mean Pastor Kisha? Imagine going to the doctor, in severe pain, and they prescribe narcotics. Now, while the medication works, when it wears off the pain returns. Why? Because the pain has been treated, but not the cause of the pain. Beloved, how much longer will you carry on, masking the pain? How much longer will you act…
How will you wait?
We think that when one door closes, God will open another one. Now, while I believe God will close doors, relationships, access, contracts, etc. that are detrimental to our being and purpose, what if He doesn’t open the next “thing” right away? What if God doesn’t immediately open another door because He needs you to heal or sit and deal with what you’ve just come out of? What if God doesn’t…
Eleven Years + One Day
8/28/2014 + 1 Day – A date deemed worthy of displaying on my right wrist. See, it was eleven years + one day ago that I stopped running from God’s call. Yet, it’d be the day after that my life began to align with God’s will. I’ve shared this testimony before, but I could not let this day pass without telling it again for somebody who needs a reminder of God’s promises. No, I’m not about to sell…

Are you playing or preparing?
Have you prepared for what you’ve been praying for? No, really. Have you? Many times, we pray for God to give us without realizing that sometimes, His giving to us means we also have to give … um, how can I type this? It means we, too, have to give up some stuff. You know, like the ways that won’t fit, the language that won’t mix, the mindset that won’t work, some places and people you’ve…
BUT GET UP!
You’re weary You’re tired You’re at your wit’s end You’re sick You’re depressed You’re suicidal You’re grieving You’re in debt You’re in sin You’re contemplating … BUT GET UP! But, a conjunction which is used to indicate the impossibility of anything other than what is being stated. Beloved, life may be at its hardest, but get up. Not because life goes on. Get up because you need to…
