My pen doesn’t pick up my stammer. It doesn’t capture my fears in a volume. It isn’t held by shaking, sweaty hands. It doesn’t stand between me and the crowd. It’s designed for my hands, not my lips. It’s designed for my mind, not my mouth. It’s easier, it’s simpler. It doesn’t add my voice…

The prosperity gospel impoverishes the people it promises to prosper. It kills the people it promises to heal.
