Any of us would risk everything to save our family. Police Officers are called to risk their lives for people they don’t even know.
Officer Jerome Turner is a dedicated Police Officer and devoted husband and father. On April 1st, 2019, Officer Turner almost lost his life in a gunfight while answering a “routine” call.
Here is our open and honest conversation about that fateful day, the impact the shooting had on his family, his thoughts on defunding the police and bulletproof vests. And if you are unsure about the presence of guardian Angels, this might change your thinking.

Restoration…
We love happy endings to movies, don’t we? Hallmark has perfected this. Do you know why we love these movies? It’s because we want restoration, we want happy endings in our lives…we want to know order will be restored and everything will make sense in the world. These movies give us hope that they are possible.
Free Yourself…
Is there someone in your life you need to forgive? Perhaps an ex, a parent, or even yourself? Forgiveness is hard. We hold onto past hurts, giving them life, but keeping the pain inside hurts us. It robs us of living fully today.
I had to forgive my parents for years of emotional and physical abuse. Fortunately, the damage they did to my self-esteem wasn’t permanent. By actively practicing gratitude, over time I was able to see my parents more clearly, understanding why they acted the way they did. I forgave them, and I was free. You can do it, too. Start with gratitude…
Story Time…
Behind what we see lies a unique, beautiful story. Everyone has one. What chapter are you currently writing?
Fear of Missing Out…
People will make emotional decisions when they feel like they might miss out on something. I encourage you to use wisdom and discernment when faced with big decisions. Pray about them, and listen for the voice of our Creator to guide you…
Gratitude…
There is always something to be grateful for. Think about your heartbeat, fresh air to breathe and food in your refrigerator. Focus on what you have, not what you lack…
Toxins…
We protect our children from poisonous cleaning supplies by restricting access to the cabinets in our homes. Why do we allow toxic people into our lives? Restrict their access to you. They will remain as they are, yet you will be better…
Reach and Impact…
Every person you meet gives you an opportunity to impact them in a positive way. Try to leave others better than you found them…
