#salute 4 the feature! #Repost @huhsreunion06 with @repostapp ・・・ The great Benjamin Elijah Mays said, “Whatever you do, strive to do it so well that no man living and no man dead and no man yet to be born could do it any better.” Today's #AlumniSpotlight features Xavier Brandon! X strives to embody this quote everyday. Xavier received his Bachelors of Science in Computer Science from Morehouse College and then received his Masters of Divinity with a concentration in Race and Religion from Candler School of Theology at Emory University. He has spoken at youth conferences along the east coast including the Elevate Teen Lock in at The Park Church in Charlotte, NC and the Roots Youth Conference at New Birth Metro in Atlanta, GA. He currently serves as the Youth and Young Adult Pastor of the Young Individuals Expressing Life Differently (YIELD) Ministry at New Birth Metro. Xavier has been speaking for over 7 years at various colleges, schools and churches throughout the country. His work in the community has allowed him to mentor and lead youth and young adults from Marietta to Southwest Atlanta through his non-profit Zek’s Dream Center, his employment with Young Life and his ministry through New Birth Metro. In addition to being a speaker and leader in the community, Xavier is also a prominent hip-hop artist. He strives to reconcile the Hip Hop culture with God, demonstrating that it is okay to have a love for the music and be in love with Jesus Christ. He is equipped for this task because his honesty and his humility enable him to relate to anyone. His infectious love for God and relevant teaching style sets a spark for God and quells doubt in the hearts of many people that he encounters. He is anointed to spread the Gospel to the Hip Hop generation both in the corridors of his everyday life and on stage. From being a husband to His wife Ifie Natasha, a father to his children Brooklyn and Malik, a brother, son and mentor to many, his words, his actions and his heart illustrate that God reigns preeminent in his life and he believes in turn God will draw all men and women unto Him (John 12:32). #HUHSReunion06 #HUHSAlumni #HUHSClassOf06 #ThrowbackThursday
