We interrupt your regularly scheduled blog this week (and for the next few weeks) to bring you a sampling of a new program I am producing entitled, "The First Lady's SHHOW!"
No, there's no typo in the word, SHHOW. It's actually an acronym for:
Spirit-filled Hilarious Hour Of Worship.
The samples you will watch are not an hour, they're only about 4 minutes long. Eventually, when the whole program is is in full production, you will be able to enjoy an hour-long show that will minister to the entire family by combining elements reminiscent of the Carol Burnett show, the Tonight Show and Saturday Night Live. There will be improvisational/comedic skits, musical guests, on-the-street interviews, as well as interviews with...you guessed it First Ladies! It's good, clean family fun with a little something for everyone!
Although I have certainly been inspired by all of the television shows I mentioned above, the real inspiration for The First Lady's SHHOW! comes from the Holy Spirit, so as it entertains, it will also minister, touching the hearts of viewers at a deeper level.
I will be interviewing women from churches, universities, political arenas -- prayerfully even the White House!-- who hold the official title of "First Lady," to provide a unique opportunity for us to get to know more about the tremendous women beside the leaders in our country. We will also feature women who are either firsts in their field or are in some way pioneering.
I earnestly enlist your prayers and support as I launch out in faith for this endeavor. There are also sponsorship opportunities for those of you who would like to help bring this God-sent vision into fruition. Contact me at BNcouraged247@msn.com to inquire about sponsorship.

Without further delay, here's a sneek peak of The First Lady's SHHOW!
BNcouraged!
