In this lively episode of "Talking Ish," we dive into workplace experiences, with Coretta recounting her week of hosting corporate visitors and navigating performance reviews. Britt gushrs over the resurgence of the Black Panther Party and the implications of corporate donations to controversial organizations. We touch on the recent controversy surrounding Ludacris's participation in a country music festival and the actions of certain artists who seem to prioritize financial gain over their original fan base and artistic integrity. The conversation shifts to the topic of Ludacris, touching on his successful ventures outside of music, including his role in the Fast and Furious franchise, and the implications of artists trying to stay relevant in a changing industry. The hosts also delve into the troubling allegations surrounding figures in the Black community, particularly focusing on Donnie McClurkin and the complexities of power dynamics in mentorship relationships, especially within religious contexts. And the conversation dives deep into the complexities of religion, particularly focusing on the experiences of Black individuals within various faiths. Anthony and Coretta discuss their personal backgrounds with Catholicism and how it intersects with their cultural identities. They explore the historical context of religion as a tool of oppression, particularly in the Black community, and how many religious practices were imposed by colonizers. The dialogue also touches on the hypocrisy within organized religion, especially regarding the treatment of marginalized groups, and the moral dilemmas faced by individuals who question the teachings of their faith. The speakers emphasize the importance of critical thinking and personal belief systems, advocating for a more inclusive understanding of spirituality that transcends traditional dogmas.Become a Habitual Ish Talker and follow us on The App Formally Known As Twitter: twitter.com/TalkinIsh_PodJoin in on the conversation!

What does it mean for the Church to be a living Ebenezer in today's world? In this powerful message, Pastor Donnie McClurkin challenges the direction of modern Christianity and calls the body of Christ back to humility, repentance, and biblical truth.  Preaching from 1 Samuel 7:12, Pastor McClurkin reminds us that the Church must reflect God's help, not human pride. He critiques the celebrity culture in the Church, confronts the misuse of God's name in national symbols, and urges pastors to stop promoting themselves and start serving.  This message is a call to holiness, to become living testimonies of God's deliverance—true Ebenezers in a world that desperately needs His help. The Church must return to being a humble, holy reflection of God's presence—living Ebenezers that point to His power and grace.

Are you carrying silent burdens that no one else sees? It's time to find real healing and rest. In this powerful Sunday sermon, Pastor Donnie McClurkin shares a heartfelt message about understanding and experiencing the true rest that God offers. Drawing from Matthew 11:28-30 and 1 Peter 5:7, Pastor Donnie reminds us that while many know God, few fully lean on His support, continuing to live stressed and overwhelmed. Pastor Donnie explains the trichotomy of man—body, soul, and spirit—and challenges us to stop masking our inner wounds with superficial faith. Through personal stories and biblical truth, he shows how unresolved pain can block us from the freedom Christ intended. If you are ready to experience the peace and healing only Jesus can give, this message is for you. God does not want us to live burdened or broken. He invites us into His rest, calling us to cast every care on Him and walk fully in healing and wholeness.

Are you carrying burdens you were never meant to carry? In this powerful Resurrection Sunday message, Pastor Donnie McClurkin invites us to encounter the love, rest, and redemption found in Jesus Christ. Centered around Matthew 11:28—"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest"—Pastor McClurkin reminds us that Jesus is meek, lowly in heart, and willing to exchange our heaviness for His peace. This sermon highlights the deep love of Christ, His hatred for what sin does to us, and His desire to see us healed, restored, and walking in freedom. His sacrifice wasn't just to forgive sin, but to end the cycle of shame, guilt, and condemnation. Jesus is not pushing us away—He's calling us closer, ready to heal what's broken and offer new life in Him.

The Bible says that God will command the blessings when people come together in unity. Pastor Donnie McClurkin vehemently opposed the widespread division that has found its way into the body of Christ. He ascertained that this division has put the church in a dangerous place because the church is a substratum of hope and help for the world. He admonished that we should not allow our political differences to bifurcate our fellowship and solidarity because if the church is divided then we will become disconnected and dysfunctional. He then called for unity, reminding us that everyone is valuable and everyone is needed in their respective roles because God has made us as one body, which should never be divided.  Sermon Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 1:10; Matthew 18:20; Hebrews 10:25; John 17:21; 1 Corinthians 12:18-24   We stream live every Sunday at 11 am ET and every Wednesday at 8 pm ET.   Visit our website: https://perfectingfaithchurch.com    Connect with us on social media!  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PerfectingFaithChurch/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/perfectingfaithchurch/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/PFCNY  Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@perfectingfaithchurch
