I am starting a new series after Thanksgiving titled Showcasing,
and my goal is to showcase God doing extra
ordinary things in every day people. I will be interviewing and showcasing, through writing, people who stepped out despite fear to accomplish their dreams and also people who have thrived even after a job loss, a dead spouse, illness, divorce and other issues we encounter everyday. I also hope to showcase individuals who are contributing to the world around them or thriving against the odds stacked up against them or who left a 9-5 job to pursue their dreams. My vision is to inspire others to ditch fear, negativity and the voice inside their head while showing the diversity of God in humans. I hope to write one story per week, but that could change (more or less) depending on how many people I get to interview. I hope to utilize videos, pictures and other creative avenues to tell stories in the future. The stories will cover male and female, children, teenagers and adult, and Black, White, Asian and all other races. People living locally, nationally and internationally. This is the vision.
How do you all come in?
1. If you know someone who fits these descriptions or you believe should be showcased, please contact me by email at jostwrite@gmail.com.
Help me connect with a potential showcasee :). Do keep in mind that the stories to be showcased are chosen at my discretion, and interviews can be done in person, over the phone and by Skype. I am not equipped to travel everywhere right not, but hopefully in the future, I can bring myself to different parts of the world. :)
2. Help promote the series by sharing through Twitter, Facebook and any social media you are a part of, and if you are showcased...shout it out loud to your family, friends and network.
3. Subscribe to my blog
4. Be inspired to reach out and up
I will start by showcasing the people around me: the ones I know and encounter. I am starting with people whose stories inspire me, and some might not speak to you, but would speak to someone else. I hope as I move along and grow, I will be able to showcase God in many ways through the tiniest of issues to the hardest and gut wrenching ones.
Beloved, You are Loved Absolutely!
