Welcome
U
ntold Chronicles showcases the difficult issues, life changing events and experiences of leaders, men and women of God that caused them to want to throw in the towel, stop going to church and for some utimately leave God. However, God has a different idea and each featured guest narrate their account of deliverance, while demonstrating to those also affected, there is a way out (solution). Untold Chronicles deals with the immensely hard issues we endure so as to offer, establish and maintain a connection with others who have similar testimonies or experiences. Through steps, sacred writings and supplications, they look to offer guidance on how to obtain, regain and restore relationships with Christ, while also learning to trust again.

About the author Dr. Nia:
Unconventional, unorthodox, and unapologetically me when it comes to ministry.
She believes the Word of God as stated in Hebrews 13:8 “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” However, she knows that the changes in society and time mean that we must change how we convey the Word of God to this new generation. Nia’s ministry is to the downtrodden, the outcasts, and to those the church has given up on. She has a strong love and compassion for these types of people; she understands that deep feeling of rejection all too well. At one point, it was her. Her mission is to engage millennials with uncommon practices in inistry— practices that actually appeal to them. She then equips them with the Word of the God and all the necessary armor that they need for today’s battles. Finally, she sends them forth, empowered that they may bring others into the Kingdom of God.
Brandon Watson “I want to be for other people, the person I didn’t have. I want to inspire people to be a better artist, friend, worshiper, a better them, whoever that is. That’s who I am as an artist, that’s who I am as a person.”

rowing up for me was a little different. I am an only child and my parents are both ministers. I grew up in church my entire life. This kind of “megachurch movement” we now see and experience currently that focuses more on programs instead of power or miracles happening. I saw healings, I saw the miraculous and the Glory of God growing up. So I knew from a very young age what was real and what was counterfeit. I started leading worship (playing guitar and singing) when I was 12yrs old and wanted to be a worship leader. I had a big dream and an even bigger calling on my life. I grew up in a small church in Bandera TX, about 40mins outside
of San Antonio TX and I had no idea how to get where I believed God was going to take me. As we fast forward a few years, I was 17yrs old, had been extremely hurt by the “Church” so I was really trying to navigate through “religion” or “relationship” with God. I wrote and released my first radio single that charted to number 1 on multiple radio stations in the U.S and Europe called All This Time in 2014. Little did I know GOD had a plan that was always in motion for my life and was going to use that song to launch my music career. My single “Got a Feelin” has been played on number #1 radio stations in the U.S and all over the world including iHeart Radio, SiriusXM Kirk Franklin’s
Praise, and FM/AM radio dials. I was recently a featured artist for “Kirk Franklin’s Indie Artist” showcase stamped by FO YO SOUL Entertainment. My full EP called “The Difference EP” released to a great response on March 20th of 2018. My newest project “COMING BACK” featuring Pablo Villatoro is now available everywhere for download and has been top 5 on the charts in France since December 5, 2018! I am a multi-nominated and award-winning artist for song of the year in 2018 for Got a Feelin’ with multiple number 1 charting songs on the radio. I figured “I’ve done well and I’m doing exactly what God is wanting me to do” however on my road to success I experienced something that would shake my faith. In November of 2018, I started suffering from vocal issues. The thing I used to worship God and to make a living for myself was being affected to the point where my voice was not recovering and I could barely speak. After consulting vocal coaching and several doctor visits, my primary doctor told me “I don’t know what this is going to mean for your singing career but it’s something to think about” for months I went back to what I’ve always known. Calling on heaven! I prayed and told the
Lord “Even if I never sing again I’ll still worship you the same way I’ve known” I came to terms with if I’m not able to sing again it wouldn’t affect my worship and it wouldn’t affect my faith. BUT! I stood on the promise of God from a young boy. I knew that I was going to be everything GOD SAID I was going to be and I’m not going to stop until I see that happen. I felt peace and continued to travel and tour throughout the months. Shortly after touring I went to visit a vocal specialist and by the grace and mercy of God, they cleared me and couldn’t find anything wrong with my vocal cords. The moment I thought I couldn’t sing again everything was put into perspective for me. Here is what it comes down to, no matter the achievements, accomplishments, accolades, or titles, it’s absolutely nothing without God. I’ll still serve Him and I’ll still worship Him. For me at the end of the day, my identity is not my music, my worship, or even ministry. My identity is in God and I’m his child. I’m humbled, I’m honored and I’m privileged to be able to be one of those that have been chosen and able to do this. To God and only Him alone be the glory.

My recipes have grown from my southern Louisiana childhood and its intrenched traditions. My life has been a fusion of Creole and American styles, steeped in a lifetime of entertaining experience that began with my grandmother in Louisiana. Life is all about experiences, and now as a Mom, I can’t wait to share them with you.

n 2001 my wife and I had been in ministry for three years. I was eight years on the Philadelphia Police Department, newly married to my wife with two daughters, one son and one kid on the way. We were holding weekly night service, and outreach ministry in some two thousand square feet commercial building. Everything was great. But as with everything trials come your way. Both of us had strong faith even before we met. To us, the ministry was everything so when members failed to pay tithes we sowed everything we had to keep the doors of the church open. It’s been years now we’ve been solely financing the ministry off of one salary, and not to mention taking care of a family of five. And as a result, our bills fail behind.
We lived for months without electric and continued to hold regular services. One morning I entered the apartment living room, and my television came on. Amazed, I called my wife and asked if anyone had found out what we were going through and had paid our bill. No one had paid our bill, and our meter box had been padlocked. A miracle took place. God provided a supernatural provision of electric throughout the winter. The entire ordeal was a test of our faith, especially when faced with the reality of the lack of love people have for God and the truth of his word. It was also challenging to cope with financial issues due to a lack of members paying tithes and offerings. We held on, and in the end, God rewarded our faith with a supernatural provision

postle Duane A. McCoy and Lady Antoinette McCoy, two filmmakers who twelve years ago moved to Arizona by the way of Philadelphia and have been enriching the state in may ways ever since. The couple and their five children first arrived on the Arizona scene for their Ministry at the Rose of Sharon World Evangelistic Church in Avondale, AZ. But before moving to Arizona, Duane had a very detailed dream one night, what he terms a “Divine Dream” about the biblical Book of Revelations. And that dream never left him. So much so that in 2010, he and his wife were moved to begin creating a film about it, even though they had no real experience in movie-making. They formed Epic Royal Entertainment DBA DNA Filmworks and in 2011, wrote a screenplay which they shot as a short film called “New World Order”. The story centered on two young women living in the apocalyptic era foretold in the Bible, and the choices they are forced to make for their beliefs. It showed on AZ TV on Christmas Day 2011 and also went to DVD.
Holy Bible. Now three years already, since the inception of the New World Order. It’s tyrant general known as the Supreme Chancellor sets out to bring the world under the rule of his master Lord Aldo De Luca. The Supreme Chancellor demands that all people of the world pledge their allegiance to Lord De Luca’s ideals by registry of a global census and that they should receive a mark to distinguish them as legal citizens of the order. Fixated with passion for his lord, the Supreme Chancellor orders all who fail to register themselves as citizens to be terminated. Demi and Christen are forced to make a choice to either live under the New World Order of the Antichrist, Aldo De Luca or die for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
In 2012, the McCoy’s were motivated to take that dream even further and finish the story with an ambitious feature-length movie, a prequel to the short. Feeling that they were being guided from above, the couple succeeded where many fledgling filmmakers do not. They got their movie made, on their own dime. And not only did Duane write and direct it, he scored New World Order (The End Has Come) the entire movie haunting soundtrack. story line is... The end has come, and a New World Order has arisen.

is the reason why someone does something and it is the reason why someone desires to continue to do something. What is your motivation? What does it take for you to get up and move? Deciding to complete a task is achieved in many ways yet if it is completed, the same result is reached. Ones level of “motivation” determines how long it takes you to reach that goal, whatever it may be. Early on in my life I was told by family and even by friends that I would never be anything, I would never amount to anything, I would get pregnant and not finish high school. In 1992, while in the 11th grade I had my first child and from the time I discovered this “mistake” as many referred to it as, all those horrible words spoken into my life started ringing in my ear. “Are they right about me?” and “Did I prove their point?”, were the consistent questions I began to ask myself because after hearing those things for so long, doubting ME became the norm. I wasn’t sure of myself but there was something inside me that just would not allow ME to throw-in the towel. I now can call it, without any hesitation, motivation. Obstacles in life are going to come, it is a given, so I wanted to let you know there is no exception in business. Depending on the area and what is needed will make the determination of how difficult, yet your level of motivation can make the ride a whole lot smoother. Use that fire under you to understand what is necessary for your business to become a reality by starting with research. Learn the ends and outs of it by getting familiar with EVERYTHING it is associated with, study the boundaries, get acquainted with what licenses are needed, know if you will need certification and keep a notepad handy just in case you run across valuable information. Nothing is going to be handed to you so the only choice to make is to “Get Up and Move”! Find what motivates you what get a fire up under you. See the negative words spoken to me gave me the energy to push forward and gave me a goal to reach. Although I got set back, I did not let that be my downfall, I did not allow it to break my spirit instead I allowed it to break barriers keeping me from my destiny. “Get Up and Move” and tell your former self, “IT’S A NEW SHERIFF IN TOWN”, I am excited for what is in store for you!

When Is It Time to Close the Doors? Sought-after speaker and prophetic voice helps readers recognize their own personal, generational struggles with this insightful read Winter Haven, FL – From inspirational speaker and author LaTonya Smith comes a timely and thoughtful read that hopes to help each family face the inner struggles fought throughout the generations. In her book, Closing Doors: Strategies to Overcoming Generational Proclivities & Bloodline Iniquities, readers will find answers to questions they may have thought of about their families and the past generations --but never really dared to ask. This book is a dynamic expose on who, what, and why bloodlines and generations are robbed of purpose. The author releases insight with prophetic precision that will enlarge the capacity of each reader to possess the inheritance of their families through deliverance, healing, and wholeness. It will empower readers to identify hidden contraband that hinders generational transfer of blessings; dig for the family’s assets; banish family iniquities and proclivities; and transfer legacy to generations. The prophetic penmanship of this book will challenge readers into action until manifestation becomes evident. Birthrights and blessings are in one’s covenant with God. People’s life paradigm as it relates to bloodlines, generations, ministry, and the nations will shift as they read the book. The book answers many questions, such as: Are you repeatedly encountering cyclic setbacks? Are you called to ministry and yet your fruit is temporal? Are you encountering repeated battles of sin structures and demonic strongholds in your family? Are you challenged with your destiny seemingly drifting further away? These and more questions will be answered and will hopefully help families overcome their own challenges.

Prophetic words for the soul Your New Reality! By Becky Porter
I hear the Lord saying: Awaken sleeper, arise, and step forth into your destiny! I have given you very specific promises for your future and your destiny, but many of you have dreams that are lying dormant. At one time you were fervently pressing into Me with great faith and passion. Your dreams were always before you, and you were calling them in with great faith and expectation, but when those promises did not occur in the time frame that you expected, you began to grow discouraged and weary, and you began to back off from your place of faith, hope and trust. Many of you have put your dreams on a shelf, wondering if they will ever come to pass. Some of you feel that I have let you down, and some of you even feel that I have abandoned you, but nothing could be further from the truth, for I love you with an everlasting love that will never tire, tarnish or fade! You are My precious and beloved child in whom I am WELL pleased. I am the God of the seemingly impossible, and I will turn what was darkness into My marvelous light! Ask, and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. If you give good gifts to your own children, how much more will I give good gifts to My children?
how they had been healed, it caused her faith to arise. She thought to herself, “If Jesus healed those people, I know He will heal me – even if I can only touch His garment, I know I will be healed!” That precious woman’s faith caused her to be healed instantly! It is time to press in, My beloved, it is time! Arise, My beloved, and take My hand, And the two of us, together, will enter My Promised Land. Don’t be discouraged by what you see, or don’t see, For I’ve already given you the victory! Your promises are coming, and they will be your new reality! Victory is yours, My beloved – victory is yours! Remember that faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Call those things which be not as though they were, and watch your promises come to pass in your life!
Spend time with Me and share your heart with Me - just as you would do with a trusted friend. As you spend intimate time with Me, I will heal you, I will strengthen you, I will refresh you, I will encourage you, I will give you My peace, and It is time to arise from your place of prostra- I will transform you into My image and likeness. tion, discouragement, hopelessness and frustration, and it is time to press in once again. Your I want you to know how much I love you, and I faith has a voice and it moves Me to act on your want you to know how VERY precious and spebehalf, just like the woman with the issue of cial you are to Me! You are always on My mind. blood. She had tried everything she knew to get I absolutely LOVE spending time with you – it healed, but nothing had worked for her. When brings Me more joy than you could possibly she heard the miracles others had received and know! If you knew the plans I have for you, you
would GREATLY rejoice, for My plans will FAR exceed the dreams and expectations you have for your life! No matter what you may currently see in the natural, I want you to know that I am working behind the scenes and I am getting things ready for you, and one day you will see your promised land coming into view, and you will GREATLY rejoice!
I’ve heard your cries. I’ve heard your questions, “Why God, why?” I say to you, Trust Me. Trust Me to see you through. If you will trust Me, I’ll show you just what you need to do. If you abide in Me, you’ll have the victory, The sun will shine again for you, Your gray skies will once again be blue, The Lord is bringing a prophetic song to mind Because I love you, and you can trust Me. that He gave me many years ago: The two of us will walk hand in hand. The two of us, together, we will stand. I’ve Seen Your Tears The two of us, together, will face whatever may come. I’ve seen your tears, For the two of us, together, the two of us are one.
Scriptures to keep in mind Matthew 7:7-11 TPT “Ask, and the gift is yours. Seek, and you’ll discover. Knock, and the door will be opened for you. For every persistent one will get what he asks for. Every persistent seeker will discover what he longs for. And everyone who knocks persistently will one day find an open door. Do you know of any parent who would give his hungry child, who asked for food, a plate of rocks instead? Or when asked for a piece of fish, what parent would offer his child a snake instead? If you, imperfect as you are, know how to lovingly take care of your children and give them what’s best, how much more ready is your heavenly Father to give wonderful gifts to those who ask him?” Jeremiah 29:11 NIV For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Hebrews 11:1 KJV Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Galatians 6:9 TPT And don’t allow yourselves to be weary or disheartened in planting good seeds, for the season of reaping the wonderful harvest you’ve planted is coming! Mark 5:25-29 TPT Now, in the crowd that day was a woman who had suffered horribly from continual bleeding for twelve years. She had endured a great deal under the care of various doctors, yet in spite of spending all she had on their treatments, she was not getting better, but worse. When she heard about Jesus’ healing power, she pushed through the crowd and came up from behind him and touched his prayer
shawl. For she kept saying to herself, “If only I could touch his clothes, I know I will be healed.” As soon as her hand touched him, her bleeding immediately stopped! She knew it, for she could feel her body instantly being healed of her disease! Romans 13:11 AMP Do this, knowing that this is a critical time. It is already the hour for you to awaken from your sleep [of spiritual complacency]; for our salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed [in Christ]. Romans 4:17 VOICE As it is recorded in the Scriptures, “I have appointed you the father of many nations.” In the presence of the God who creates out of nothing and holds the power to bring to life what is dead, Abraham believed and so became our father.
