Dr. Sandra G. KennedyThe Amazing Grace of God | Dr. Sandra G. KennedyWhat is Grace? It is easy to assume you know what grace is and what it means. But to understand Grace, you need more than a dictionary definition, more than a theological explanation, you need an experience.

You see, the mercy of God sets the pace, opens a door for the grace of God to flow out on you. Grace is everything the Lord wants to give you for a victorious life.

For me, it started with a desperate search for financial independence while trapped in an abusive marriage. In 2018, I turned to meditation not for spiritual enlightenment but because successful people in an MLM claimed it helped them make money. What began as a practical pursuit transformed into the cornerstone of my healing journey.That first 45-minute guided meditation sent me into the deepest, most cathartic sleep I'd ever experienced—so profound that concerned colleagues and my then-husband couldn't reach me for ho...2025-05-0734 minOut Here Tryna SurviveEp 24: I agree with Tracee Ellis Ross & Shannon Sharpe is WHY!Send us a textWhen Tracy Ellis Ross mentioned dating younger men, she faced an immediate wave of criticism and bizarre comparisons to Shannon Sharp – a man facing multiple sexual assault allegations. This glaring double standard perfectly illustrates the misogynoir Black women face when simply discussing their dating preferences.As a 48-year-old Black woman navigating modern dating, I deeply relate to Tracy's perspective. The reluctance many of us feel toward dating older men isn't arbitrary – it's rooted in consistent experiences with men who remain entrenched in outdated values and toxic masculinity. These older men often expe...2025-05-0150 minOut Here Tryna SurviveEp 23: Healing Your Inner Child: My recent (cougaring) Dating Lesson!Send us a textThat voice inside your head telling you something feels off?

Reversing the Influencer to Evangelical PipelineSend us a textWhat happens when you walk the opposite path of the "influencer to evangelical pipeline"? As someone who spent 16 years as a minister with a nearly-completed Master's of Divinity, my journey away from evangelicalism toward a more liberated spirituality offers a powerful counternarrative to what we often see in today's culture.The evangelical world I inhabited taught me I was fundamentally flawed—a "worm" in need of constant redemption.

Dr. Sandra G. KennedyDon't Let Your Love Grow Cold | Dr. Sandra G.

As stated in Philippians 2, “do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit but with humility of mind regarding one another as more important than yourself.” The question is how does Jesus Love YOU? Is Loving like Jesus impossible for you? For us to attain to an unselfish love, for His Grace, is always available to empower us to do whatever it is He has called us to do.
