James Arthur Williams shares his incredible journey where during childhood, being intelligent and following the spiritual teachings of his parents got him laughed at and teased until he felt forced to adopt and embrace a thug mentality to survive in the projects.
James questioned “Why did his parents suffer and struggle so much when they loved the Lord with all their hearts and they made so many sacrifices for God while his peers who lived the total opposite of God’s word seemed to acquire money, status, and the good life?”
James was unable to rationalize this in his mind and chose to please and gain acceptance from his peers in the hood and began chasing a masked lifestyle that was opposed to his God-given potential.
James is no different from the millions of people who chase materialistic things, lifestyles, and religions to please their parents, partners, or peers.
