If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek myface and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive theirsin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14 What if the antidote to a self-obsessed,hyper-branded, me-rst culture isnt more mega-ministries? What if its not customer ser-vice desks in church lobbies catering to consumer-driven church shoppers? What if arena
preachers and sub-culture rock bands fuel the look-at-me virus rather than compel us tolook at Him?. What if, rather than stem the tide, churches have become propelled by it?
In the last thirty years, American evangelicalism has manufactured more larger-than-
life personalities, corporate marketing, and self-improvement hype than ever before. Weparallel a cultural narcissism that accelerates at a dizzying rate 140 characters at a timeon Twitter and elsewhere. What if the Church became countercultural instead?. What ifchurches and church leaders embraced a dose of old-fashioned humility? Like the humil-ity described in the oft-quoted passage from 2 Chronicles 7:14 promising national forgive-
ness and healing. The kind marked by associating less with logos and egos, and more witha God who calls and brands us as his own. Often overlooked in the Chronicles passageis the conditional nature of its promise. Forgiveness and healing are not guarantees even
when we pray and seek his face and turn from wickedness. The underlying condition: church people who HUMBLE themselves, ex -changing their names and brands for His, seek His face rather than promoting theirs, and turn from wickedness, including cultural
obsessions with self. On the eve of the tenth anniversary of the worst terrorist attack in our nations history, New York City glimpsedwhat this kind of humility looks like. The gathering to commemorate 9/11 was simple. Reaching Out: A Sacred Assembly was orga-nized in six weeks by a visionary associate pastor from a neighborhood church in Manhattans lower east side, and a team of selessvolunteers. Three years earlier, just after his ordinati on, he envisioned his congregation and others in the neighborhood uniting asone Church to lift up one Jesus in their shared community.
As they would reach out to each other, Pastor Louis Carlo of Abounding Grace Ministries reasoned, in humility they could reach upto heaven and out to their neighbors. He let the vision germinate for two years, then presented it to his senior pastor and three neigh-borhood colleagues in the fall of 2010. Two prayer and worship gatherings followed. The third was overdue. On July 28, Pastor Louand a friend were praying in an otherwise empty, seldom used amphitheater at East River Park along the FDR Drive. He left with a
sense that the next Reaching Out prayer and worship gathering should be there, where church people could gather in a public spaceand declare with one voice the Lordship of Jesus and His seless love for New York. He was also persuaded to invite other churchesfrom the city, not just his neighborhood, and to convene on the eve of the tenth anniversary of 9/11.
Some members of his team called the idea insane, because how could any right-minded pastor expect to produce a citywide event
in six weeks, when four and a half of those vacation-lled weeks were in August? His response: if one man or ministry couldnt pullit off, then maybe God would be gloried. Undaunted, he led, and the pieces fell in place. Neighborhood, city, and even national min-istries embraced the events nameless, faceless vision. Sixty ministries showed up, and thirty-ve ministers many of them legendswithin evangelical Christendom led prayer, read scriptures, and reected from the platform. They were given the pulpit for 60, 120,
or 180 seconds. Almost all of them stayed on time. Not one of them was introduced.In their obscurity, Gods name and face was the only one that mattered. What if the antidote to cultural narcissism is a Church that
reects and promotes Christ alone? Imagine the possibilities.

Gian Paul Gonzalez has been a hero to many people long before
I had the pleasure of naming him a New Jersey Hero today. He
was the forward for Montclair State University basketball team
during his time in college. In his junior year, he started an orga-
nization called 4-One, which motivates at-risk youth throughout
NJ through the game of basketball, inspiring pride and self-es-
teem in kids who need it the most. With 4-One, he visits juve-
nile jails and inner-cities throughout our state. Upon graduating
from Montclair State, Gian Paul had the opportunity to play pro-
fessional basketball for the NBA.
However, he decided to give up that dream for another one. He
came back to his hometown of Union City to be a high school
teacher. He felt that instead of giving his neighborhood kids acelebrity to look up to, it would serve them better to have a real in-person role model that they
were able to spend time with every day. So today I had the opportunity to come to the Jose Marti
Academy where Gian Paul teaches, to meet him and get to know more about 4-One and another
program he started called Flight Club.
Flight Club, named after the schools mascot, an eagle, is a before and after school program that
works off of the 4-One model, using basketball and physical strength exercises, while also involv-
ing character building exercises with the young men. It was incredible to hear the rst hand ac-
counts from his leadership team who have since graduated from Flight Club of how it has helped
change them and mold them into the upstanding young men they are today. Gian Paul is an
amazing role model for the young people in his hometown of Union City and for people around
our state.
He talks to his students about leadership, how to be good members of society, and most impor-
tantly, how to treat others. It is so clear that he is helping to make a difference in the lives of the
young men he works with. I am honored to name Gian Paul Gonzalez a New Jersey Hero!.
Richie Righteous is an award-winning rapper who has minis-
tered across America (including places like Bishop Jakes Pot-
ters House and Bishop Mortons Full Gospel conference), per-
formed in several countries including the UK and runs his own
record label Rightous Entertainment. He is also a man with an
extraordinary Christian testimony.
Richie was born Richard Mohammad Ishmael in Guyana, South
America. He told broadcaster Mike Rimmer, My Dad was raised
from an Islamic background and when he decided to give his
life to the Lord and get baptised his Dad disowned him and liter-
ally locked him out of his house. He was beaten but he still did
it, which is a testimony of his life.
Richies father eventually became the pastor of a church in Guyana, Eccles Assembly Of God.When Richie was seven an event occurred which was to remain vividly in his memory. He recalled,
Thieves broke into our home and held us at gunpoint. When they were trying to break in the front
door we tried to run out the back but one of them was waiting in the back. He said, Preacher man
where are you going? My Dad tried to run back up, he was holding me in his arms; my Mom was
holding my baby sister. One of the t hieves began to re shots and they ricocheted all around us.
Finally they left, taking my folks wedding rings. Where Im from, when those types of incidents
occur, you dont survive. But we lived, every one of us. When I saw the bullets the next morning
and knew none of us was hit, I realised there was somebody who protected us that night.
When he was 11 Richies family migrated to the USA where they settled in Queens, New York. His
father started a church in Queens, Jamaica Assembly Of God. But though Richie played drums
in church his lifestyle began to slip. He began hanging out with kids from his apartment building
and frequented places where drugs were sold and guns were carried. Strangely though, Richie re-
mained unmoved by many aspects of the sin that surrounded him. He didnt smoke or drink. And
though he rarely mentioned God to his friends he still wished that they knew Christ.GIANPAULG

Oh Boy! Its almost my turn to pray, ok, I gotta practice in my head what Im going to say so that I dont sound like Im dumb.
Dear heavenly father you are a glorious omnipotent being... The preceding statement is one that crossed my mind on
many occasions when I had to pray out loud in front of people. Prayer is such an easy thing to do but I made it seem like
one of the hardest things I had ever encountered. It is simply talking to God. To be genuine in how we express ourselves.
We dont have to copy what the next person says. God wants to hear what is in our inner being, our thoughts.
He left us a sample prayer in the book ofMathew 6:9-13 which we can refer to if we get stuck. The most impor-
tant thing when praying is to give thanks. We give thanks because in expressing our gratitude comes peace,
joy and a whole lot of goodness for ourselves. Sometimes it is hard to give thanks. Especially in the times
when we face a challenging situation. In that moment of thanksgiving the Lord does marvelous things in us.
Prayer is a key element in the Christian way of life. The bible says we should pray without ceasing; in everythinggive thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you 1 Thessalonians 5:17. The more we pray we gain
power, authority, wisdom, however; the most important thing we get out of it is a relationship with Christ. The
more we seek him through prayer; we can visibly see positive change in our lives. One night, I was in class at the
college I attend. A professor spoke about a study that was done with a group of people that prayed for at least 45
minutes a day and a group that did not pray. The individuals in the study were observed daily and in depth, so
deep that the cells in their bodies were even looked at. An astonishing outcome arose from looking at the cells.
The group of people that did not pray had cells that had no shape to them; they looked like globs of goo, yuck! The group
that prayed had cells that looked completely different. They were shaped like snowakes! Scientists think that they
have discovered something new in this, but they are so wrong! The bible tells us in so many ways the benets of prayer.
The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective James 5:16. The things we can do through prayer
are limitless. Lets get to praying and then we can truly say Taste and see that the Lord is goodPsalms 34:8.Prayer

Connect:Being a teenager is difcult. We go through ghts with our parents, constant peer pressure and a struggle to maintain our
relationship with God. After having an amazing experience at our youth retreat, I realized that there is something bigger then
just living life for yourself. We have to make a difference by living for God and others. The theme for the retreat was LOVE.Love God, love yourself and love others. It may not seem like the biggest thing to do, but it makes a big difference. As young
people, sometimes the world looks down on us, they try to mold our young minds into doing the wrong things. They think
that since we are young we cant make a difference, so they might as well have control of us. Well, they are COMPLETELY
wrong. God has given each and every one of us a purpose,regardless of how young we are. By simply speaking Gods Word,
living a righteous life, walking by faith and spreading the love We. Make. A. Difference. Spread the great news of God to your
friends, speak to them about his love and mercy and have the courage to be the difference. After all, we ARE the generation
of change!
ConeXion:Dear Lord, I know that I make mistakes and may not always follow you, but I ask for forgiveness and pray that you open my
heart and mind so that I may do great and amazing things in your name. I want to make a difference in the lives of others,
in my community, and in my school. No matter how young I am or what the enemy may put in the mind of the people in this
world, I know I can be the difference through and with you! In your holy and precious name, Amen!
Action!- Today, I WILL BE the difference in my school by sharing the love of God.

Connect:It makes me feel so loved by God to know that he took care of me even before I was born. He knitted each and every person
on this earth. Knitting requires time and patience. At the end, that knit becomes something beautiful and useful. God createdus with love and care to make us the way we are because he wants to use us. I have a purpose as well as each and every
one of his creations. He took his time creating us. Now that my sister is pregnant, I am experiencing how slowly and carefully
the baby in the womb is changing. Its amazing how Gods creations are so different. He just didnt create all things the same
but he dedicated time to each creation with love to make them special.
ConeXion:God you know me so well and you love me so much. Knowing your love and how special I am, I want to show you that I love
you too. Help me to live out your will. Show me your purpose f or my life, for you created me because you have a purpose in
my life and I am not a mistake. I am here willing to do as you desire. In Jesus Name, Amen.
Action!-Today, I am going to seek God and nd my purpose for I know I have a purpose. I am going to listen carefully to him and

Connect:Here is the perfect example which demonstrates how God truly loves us anddoes not judge us. The man with leprosy simply
asked God to clean him and the Lord was willing, no questions asked. Now are we willing to follow God and live a life for him,
no questions asked no complaints or excuses? God is willing to work in our lives and change the circumstances around us
but the reality is we need to be willing to have faith and trust that God will do it. The man with leprosy did not doubt God he
knew that God could heal him and would not judge him because of his leprosy. Its hard to trust because we often doubt and
people have let us down but the truth is God will never let us down. The Lord is always willing to help us no matter what situ -
ation we may found ourselves in. Therefore, we should trust in the Lord and we should change our att itudes to be like Gods
and be willing to do his work no questions asked.
ConeXion:Lord help me to have a spirit that is willing. Give me a heart that will trust you and never doubt you Lord. Let me have a spirit

pray to Him, and have a deep heart to heart conversation with Him. When I think about what God did for me on that cross,
I can truly see thats genuine love. Jesus gave His life for His friends, the ultimate Love Sacrice! I have never felt the love
God gives me from anyone else!

Connect:The Bible speaks widely in these verses of our past. I n our life of injustice, lies, adultery, fornication and disobedience, which
lead us to eternal damnation of our souls. And though we are different, think differently, dress differently and different commit
sins, when we speak of sin we are all equal. All receive the same punishment from God, remains the wages of sin death.
And while coming repented at the feet of Christ our sins are forgiven and cast into the sea where God never ever remember
them, this is engraved in our memories with luxuries and in detail every sin committed, and every evil practice. Is within us to
fail to know God, know disobey and current knowledge of the way that God does not like to act. Prayed to God asking that

he was. God healed me and saved m e from condemnation of sin.
ConeXion:Pray this day for God to give you the strength not to follow the sin of the way you know that God is not pleased, but to help
you exercise self-control over your carnal desire. To be your last tool to help you not go back, to make decisions that honor

Romans 3:9-18What then? Are we better than them? In no way, for we have already charged that both Jews and Greeks are all under sin. As it is writ-

Their throat is an open grave, With their tongues practice deceit. Poison of asps isunder their lips: Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness.

When Jesus is speaking here to Peter about t his, you might be a little confused. The sacrice that Jesus did for us is incom-
parable, and he does not wish the same for us. What Jesus is implies here is that He wants us to commit our lives wholeheart-
edly to him. Denying ourselves has to do with giving up any worldly habits that we might have and submit to Gods will. It is
the act of letting his priorities become ours. In this, we should also accept any hardships that we may face as part of being
a Christian. Brothers and sisters, being part of Gods kingdom is not easy. We may endure many bullying tactics from the
enemy. But the amazing thing is that we dont have to f ace these challenges on our own. The Almighty God has promised to
never leave us or forsake us. He says to call out to him and he will respond. We just have to let go, and let God.

the point that you dont feel like yourself when youre NOT doing anything! Although it may signify that we are hard
workers, it takes strain on us not only physically, but spiritually as well. We could be too tired to pray and devotepersonal time to God. We may become frustrated and easily angered at things that may not go our way. (Example:
When God doesnt answer our prayers at the time we want.) Sometimes many things can become too much of a
burden that many catch anxiety attacks because our minds feel they cant handle it. But how great is it to know that
we have the Lord to provide us rest! You may feel that if you rest, time is wasted when you could use it to get things

Agape love. We really dont deserve it, yet He gives it. His love, mercy, and compassion are new and unique every morning.
If we love Him or anyone else, it is because He loved us rst. And just as His love for us is unique everyday, let our commit-

Connect:Humans were created to be in relationships. It states in the bible that we ought t o be in fellowship with one another. Ever since
earth was created, God created Eve to accompany Adam. We are relational people, period. Therefore, we yearn to be in a
relationship. We want to meet our better half, our mate, our best friend. This is normal however; it doesnt give us the green
light to go searching for our husband/wife. First of all, your relationship with God comes rst and you need to evaluate your
walk with Him before making any moves. Then we ought t o be in prayer and in a friendship (with the person you like) before
anything happens. And YES it will be hard and temptation will rise but know that God knows your desires and is with you. Itsays in Songs of Songs do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires. Meaning do not do anything that would arouse a
relationship to start. Girls, do not chase him. Let him go through God to nd you. And for the gentleman, be on your knees
praying for the lady that captured your heart. Talk to your pastor or a trusted leader about the person you like.
What to do till that day comes: Pray for patience, pray for your signicant other, and pray that you yourself can be ready for
a relationship one day. Till then, enjoy today and your singlehood. Enjoy God and His extr avagant love for you. Remember,
you are not the only single person on earth and that the special day will come after you have waited patiently.
ConeXion:Dad, I pray that you give me an extra dose of patience today. You know how I long for my mate but I thank you because You
are more than enough for me. You will guide me continually and satisfy my soul in the drought. Help me to pray for him/her

Im feeling lonely for I know that one day I will receive my promise. In Jesus name, Amen.
