2020-06-2137 minAin't Gonna Be No StupidEpisode 102: Ain't Gonna Stand By Anymore with Bishop Ed SmithBishop Ed and I have a conversation about two forms of justice: for a penalty (slap on the hand) but also justice for helping others: orphans, widows, sojourners, refugees, etc. and how can we be more helpful in practical areas right where we are, breaking generational curses, renewing our minds and living in our authority in Jesus Christ. By reflecting not deflecting, we can truly make a difference by listening to each other.
