Strong guys don't hit women. it's the weak ones who do. Everyday you do nothing but make choices. You choose to be exactly where you are. But ask yourself this. is the person you say you want to be, the person you are choosing to be? You are in control of your life. You live by your positive choices. Are you the best YOU you can be?

Majid Michel
Der 1980 geborene Majid Michel ist ein ghanaischer Schauspieler, Evangelist und charismatisch geprägter Bibellehrer. Bekannt wurde er durch seinen 2016 vollzogenen Glaubenswechsel, infolgedessen er mit christlichen Werten unvereinbare Filmrollen ablehnte und begann, öffentlich für eine persönliche Nachfolge Jesu und gegen bloße religiöse Routine zu predigen. Für Bibelleser veranschaulicht sein Profil die Verwirklichung biblischer Jüngerschaft im Spannungsfeld von säkularer Prominenz und gesellschaftlicher Öffentlichkeit.
