“Bhekani ngicela wehlise umoya ubhekane nomshado wakho. Nakhu nezinsuku sezisondele.” I am a 21 year old believer who is a single father to a beautiful 16 month little girl. I also serve as a booking agent for artists in Christian Hip Hop. I’m also a senior, elementary education major (English), at Campbell University in North Carolina. Honestly, the message of Christ hit me in a whole new way, years back when I was first introduced to Christian Hip Hop. The gospel was presented in a way where I could understand it, and share it with my friends. A couple of years back, we had the opportunity to bring Trip to my hometown of Sanford, NC, where he had a tour stop for his The Good Life Book Tour. It was awesome to see the response other people had, when they heard and understood the gospel for the first time. I would be thrilled to be a further help in spreading the word about this new book from Trip. People need to hear the gospel in their own context so they can understand it. Just as Trip did in his debut book, I look forward to reading, reviewing, and sharing his practical and relate-able story with others. I was fortunate enough to receive a hope years back, that will last with me for eternity. I want others to find this same hope, and I remain confident that Trip clearly and concisely presents this hope in his new book. Thank you for your time in reading this, and I’m looking forward to helping further this message that we all so dearly need. Let’s RISE together!
