GOING GREEN FOR GOD ~ MEETING AT THE WHITE HOUSE

Meeting & Discussing with Leaders in the White House

Meeting & Discussing with Leaders in the White House

This past week I got an interesting phone call. I got a call to meet in Washington D.C. in our nations capital at the White House. I ended up flying to D.C. on Wed for a Thursday 1pm meeting at the White House. I had a meeting with the Social Action and Faith Based Initiative Departments to discuss how to mobilize 5 million Americans and faith based communities to GO GREEN, or better care for our environment. (find out more at: www.GodsGreenAmerica.com) They asked me to be the youth and pop culture spokesperson to create a strategy and campaign to educate and empower the next best generation to care for God’s creation.

HOPE ~ THERE WERE OBAMA PICTURES EVERYWHERE!

HOPE ~ THERE WERE OBAMA PICTURES EVERYWHERE!

To be honest with you, I found it a surprise that I would receive this call and be privileged to meet with our nations leaders on this subject matter. The more I prayed and thought about it, I realized it was God’s providence and assignment to take on this issue of “Creation Care” and mobilize this current generation to take up the responsibility given to us from the beginning of time, to tend to the garden and steward the earth. I believe that “creation care” is an Biblical issue that all people of faith can agree upon, converse and work together to make happen. For many in the liberal left or the conservative right, there has not been an issue of faith that we could take responsibility together without being divided. I believe “going green for God” is at the root issue about promoting a culture of LIFE in this nation and our generation. We have to start from here…

The Bible says in, Genesis 2:15 – The LORD God put the man in the Garden of Eden to take care of it and to look after it. In other words, part of God’s original purpose and assignment for humankind was for us to take care of the earth and be good stewards of its resources. Sadly, it seems that we as human beings have not cared for God’s creation rather we have consumed it and in many ways destroyed it.

PROPHETIC DREAM: GOD’S MOVEMENT IN HOLLYWOOD AND ASIA ENTERTAINMENT

PROPHETIC DREAM ~ GOD’S MOVEMENT IN HOLLYWOOD AND ASIA ENTERTAINMENT

HOLLYWOOD WEST

HOLLYWOOD WEST

On JULY 26th 2009 morning I received a clear prophetic dream about God’s movement in the media and entertainment industry in Hollywood & Asia. There were two parts to this dream and interpreted the morning I received them.

Dream 1 ~ The Rise of Asian Artists in Hollywood & Asia

In this first dream I was in a high-rise, state of the art two-story office building. The building structure was contemporary, posh and everything on the outside and inside was glass. It had an angelic sense and purity to the design and décor. There were colors of white and deep green, it looked like a Hollywood office building in Beverly Hills.

On the bottom floor was a water fountain, statues of angels and neatly designed walkways leading to the front entrance. Then there was an escalator to the second floor where much business activity was happening. As I looked around the second floor building there were posters, portfolios and digital screen shots of different actors, actresses and artisans. Immediately, I knew in my spirit that the office was home to an entertainment and artist management company. As I looked around I saw different artists (many from GBS our “simple church” community in Hollywood) and they were all actively involved in producing new content, meeting with clients, consulting and were meeting in different rooms of the office floor. I then saw a media team from NewSong Church in Irvine coming into the office to film a TV show for the web and they were meeting in another room to discuss the production of the web TV series. Interestingly, everyone in this office working we’re mostly Asian, people I knew and were all professional and passionately driven in what they were doing in the creative arts.

Then in the dream, my office assistant came up to me and told me that I had an appointment with a female artist who wanted help in the direction of her career. I stood upstairs waiting for her, but she never came upstairs. I then get a notice from my assistant that the young woman is waiting for me downstairs because she doesn’t feel worthy to come up to the top level to meet me. I thought it was odd, so I went down the escalators to meet this young Asian artist and her name was “GRACE.”

When I saw her, my heart sunk, because she looked so insecure in her demeanor. She was dressed shabbily and had her head down when she came to meet me. She told me she didn’t know if she was good enough to come upstairs and was ashamed to meet me in my office. I then knew in my spirit that this young artist had an incredible destiny in God’s purpose, but she didn’t believe it or know it.

ESQUIRE MAGAZINE INTERVIEW W/ JMA ~ MY FAITH, LIFE & MISSION

If you are in Hong Kong, China or the Asia region pick up a copy of the latest Esquire Magazine. In it I am interviewed about my faith, life and mission. It was a divine blessing that one of the editors of Esquire approached me to do this interview after hearing me preach at one of our outreaches in Hong Kong. The editor was not a professed Christian, but one seeking and open to faith ~ a really good brother. He asked me some deep questions about God, religion, faith, purpose and my personal struggles. My hope is that by being authentic, honest and real in my sharing in this interview, that it would inspire those who read it to find faith in God’s amazing grace. Spread the love…

MICHAEL JACKSON ~ GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN

MJ IS IN HEAVEN

Michael Jackson died at age 50. My heart is saddened because we have lost one of the greatest entertainers of all time. I still remember the first music video I ever watched as a kid, none other but “Thriller.” MJ changed the game. He revolutionized music, dancing, style, performance, pop culture and the list goes on. Although his life was full of challenges, my heart & prayers go out to him, his family and his closest friends. His contribution to humanity, his courage to do what was never done, his life that was lived will forever & ever be remembered. I pray his soul to keep. Rest in peace MJ, you are gone but never forgotten. Thank you for being an inspiration to millions… I have faith & hope that you are doing the “moon walk” on the streets of gold in heaven right now! Keep on dancing!

Michael Jackson, the ‘King of Pop,’ dies at age 50

“THRILLER” ~ The Greatest Music Video of All Time!!!

FM ~ Dance like Michael Jackson!

FASHION DESIGNS SKETCHES FOR HER SHOOT

FASHION DESIGNS SKETCHES FOR HER SHOOT

So one of my greatest joys is seeing my good friends SHINE like they were born to ^^ I met Anjelah Johnson about 4 years ago during my friends B-day party at my home church. She did a stand up routine that you might be familiar with called “Nail Salon Lady” … when I saw it I cracked up so hard people thought I was crazy in the room… little did they know both me and Anjelah grew up with Vietnamese people in East Side San Jose! 408 represent!!!

After that hilarious experience, God told me he would elevate her to stardom quickly and to pray for her. I asked Anj after her performance if she had her routine on DVD or youtube.com? She said, “No” … I said, “I need it because God’s going to make you famous! LOL!” Well, the rest is history…We ended up becoming incredible friends praying and supporting each other in this little town called Hollywood. Well, I’m here to tell you that Anjelah is not just FUNNY, but she is the real deal Holyfield!! I’m just super proud of her because she has kept her purity, her purpose and her focus to be all that God created her to be w/out compromising her faith, integrity and self respect. She is an AMAZING woman of God and one fun person to be around!

MARK JOSEPH: Kris Allen’s “American Idol” Victory Marks the Return of People of Faith to American Popular Music

 

MARK JOSEPH: Kris Allen’s “American Idol” Victory Marks the Return of People of Faith to American Popular Music

By Mark Joseph
Producer/Author/Editor, BullyPulpit.com

I don’t watch American Idol, but I have been keeping up with what the L.A. TimesNewsweek and “The O’Reilly Factor “have been saying about an alleged red-state/blue-state showdown between the two finalists, Kris Allen and Adam Lambert. Allen, it turns out is a “worship leader” at his church, which in non-Evangeli-speak roughly translates to “guy who leads the singing,” while Adam Lambert is the contestant who has seen photographs of himself allegedly kissing other guys splashed across the Internet. Although Lambert didn’t exactly confirm his sexual orientation other than to say that he knows who he is, it was widely seen as the showdown between the gay guy and the Christian guy, with a judgment to be rendered by middle America.

———–

The voting patterns of “Idol” viewers and the large presence of Christian performers heralds a new era of integration into mainstream culture by people of faith.
