LET’S HEED OUR MENTORS

      It seems that every time we read about a teen or young adult involved in a horrific crime, one of the first things that ‘leaps’ out of his/her background is the fact that he/she was the product of a broken—or single parent—home.  What the ‘mainstream mess’ and social media bytes leaves out is how many times this teen/young adult hoodlum (ie gang banger or thuggette) received good advice from a trusted relative, teacher, friend or mentor and STILL decided that they wa

REAL MEN VS. THE FEMINIZED FRONT

      Lately, I’ve been having a great time re-discovering classic westerns starring the legendary Randolph Scott—an actor who, in my opinion, has been very underrated in the western genre. 

      A great example of his work comes from the flick “Decision at Sundown”—a western with plot twists a-plenty.  Towards the end of the flick, Scott’s character—after the townspeople have begun celebrating the ridding of the town of the chief bad guy—makes this startling sta

SECRETS TO SOLID RELATIONSHIPS—PART THREE

      In our last thrilling installment, we briefly covered the subject of having Christ involved in not only your dating life, but your marriage as well.  Yes, I know that the ‘lifting up’ of God may be considered ‘offensive’ to many.  Feel free to contact me at my email addy and apologize.  This series is on having solid relationships.  A solid connection by an individual to God through Jesus Christ AND having relationships with individuals who hold a

SECRETS TO SOLID RELATIONSHIPS—PART TWO

 

     Continuing from my last column for the men in the house, the first secret to having a solid relationship is to start with God through Jesus Christ.  The KJV Scriptures are a wealth of wisdom and information.  Not only will the Bible tell you the type of people to meet…it will ALSO tell you the types of people to avoid at all costs.  If YOU are a Christian man, brother, a Christian woman is whom you should marry.  In fact, a Christian man should not e

SECRETS TO SOLID RELATIONSHIPS—PART ONE

 

     I’ve been checking out some of the ‘relationship’ advice blogs and videos on social media and, quite frankly, have not been all that impressed with the content and the direction.  Suffice it to say that God has been left out of many a relationship equation.  Without God’s involvement, and heeding the KJV Scriptures, a house will not become a home.

      Always aim for God’s perfection in building solid relationships. He’s all in.  Are you?

PROFANITY, CLASS & CONSEQUENCES!

 

     During my teaching days I wrangled grades 6 through 12.  You would NOT believe how many warnings and scoldings I had to give the students—even those IN my classes—regarding profanity.  It was one thing to hear 16-and 17-year-olds cuss or swear in the hallways.  It was another thing entirely to hear profanity from the mouths of 12-year-olds--many of whom had just learned how to find their way to the cafeteria for lunch.  The depressing part of teacher enforc

On Line Book Reviews By Mike Ramey

“A man’s love goes through his stomach. A woman’s love goes through her purse.”

--South Africa

     There seems to have been a welcomed re-surfacing of interest in proverbs from the Motherland of Africa. The electronic frontier has been criss-crossed by a variety of websites, each one worthy in its own right to bring the truth of what our ancestors stated in brevity on the subject of the day from ages past. However, for those who still into reading books and turning pages, such written works seem

From Player to Coach by Mike Ramey

     I might get into a little trouble with this month’s column, but it is an overdue subject concerning women and coaching. I realize that there may be some that think that my column is a little one dimensional. Believe me, there are three dimensions when I put keys down to electronic paper. So, I warn you in advance…get out the smelling salts.

     Women SHOULD be coaches, too! However, the need is for women to coach OTHER women, more than men, and vice versa. There are certain things that ONLY

It is a particular rub for me in this case as this is a subject that I have explored, studied, understood it pros and cons across

A friend posed a question to me a few days ago that I found very thought-provoking. How has the availability of the erectile dysfunction drug Viagra affected marriages and monogamous relationships? The question came from a man who has no virility issues, so please leave assumptions at the door as we explore this topic. The question itself is insightful, but since Viagra is relatively new (first introduced in 1998), the answer is currently unknown.

What we do know is that Viagra c

There has been a surging rate in the number of divorce cases in Tampa and the rest of the country. The rising trend for divorce is not only an isolated case within the circle of celebrities as we often see in the television. Divorce has been increasingly moving closer to home.

According to a well-known family lawyer and divorce lawyer from Tampa, this phenomenon does not only affect the parents who are the main subjects o

Professional Black Men Explain the Marriage Delay

by: Debbie Wright

According to Census Bureau (2000) reports, there has been a steady decline of couples of all races getting married. For the past thirty-six years, the marriage rate has gone down by fifty percent. More couples are opting to live together rather than "risk" their relationship to a marriage that has a fifty percent chance of ending in divorce, per current U.S. divorce rates.

 

However, for African Americans, the decline in marriages is disproportionate when compared to the general
