Between these ministries, they discuss everything from the voice of God, cultural relevance, love topics, marriage and how they apply the word of GOD to them all. They’ve been married for five years now which to them, seems like forty years because of all the ups, downs, peaks and valleys that they’ve traversed so far. So, it is by no coincidence that they’ve joined forces with Dr. Kim-Carter and Noble Evans to tag- team and “serve a can of whup..” on satan and defeat it in their new book called, “The Art of WAR ON DIVORCE!” They’re actually having a book tour starting in New York City, February 16 th in Times Square and February 17 th in Brooklyn! Together, “the devilSlayer’s” are determined to give a peek into how marriage can be quite cumbersome but with JESUS involved, it all turns out “cool as a cucumber!” They’re motto is, “divorce is never an option!”
