LOC NDBS Session 8: Divine Strategy
We’ve arrived at the final session of the 8-week Clarity Series—and what better way to close than with a word on Divine Strategy?
In this powerful and timely teaching, Daisy Jones reminds us that true strategy starts with God. It’s not about forcing outcomes, rushing timelines, or manufacturing purpose. Divine strategy is God’s plan, God’s timing, and God’s outcome. Our role? To walk in identity, stay sensitive to timing, and serve faithfully.
Through the lives of Moses, Nehemiah, Joseph, Gideon, and the woman with the issue of blood, Daisy shows us how obedience—rooted in clarity—opens the door to divine movement. These were ordinary people with extraordinary trust in a God whose strategies never fail.
If you’ve been praying for direction, stuck between “go” and “wait,” or wondering what God’s up to—this episode is for you.
And while this is the closing session of the series, hear this clearly:
Clarity doesn’t end here.
It grows. It deepens. It walks with you into your next assignment.
Tune in and take your next step with confidence—because when God is the strategist, you don’t need the whole map… just the next move.
Have you ever had a thought or feeling and wondered, “Why is this still coming up?” In this powerful and insightful conversation, Daisy sits down with licensed therapist Dr. Taneka Miles to explore the idea that just because you once believed or felt something… doesn’t mean it still defines you.
Together, they unpack:
This episode is a gentle but clarifying reminder: You are allowed to grow. You are allowed to change. And what once felt true doesn’t have to shape your future.
Whether you’re navigating healing, managing old wounds, or stepping into a new version of yourself, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and truth for the journey.

Her story is both honest and faith-filled, inviting each of us to reflect on our own journey of clarity and surrender.
In this episode, you’ll gain:
This is Session 6 of 8 in the Let’s Be Clear - Clarity Series. In this powerful session led by Saundra Kearney, we confront the illusion of powerlessness and face the hard truth: some things in life don’t need more prayer—they need real change. While we often wait for confirmation, God may already be calling us to take the next step in obedience.
Change It: your mind, perspective, habits, commitment, attitude, stewardship accountability, etc.
Join us as we explore what it means to move from revelation to transformation. Learn how clarity isn’t just a gift—it’s a call to action. Whether it’s a mindset, habit, relationship, or routine, this session challenges us to stop circling the same mountain and change it.
2 Corinthians 5:17 tells us that In Christ we are new…we have the power to leave the old. This is one of the scriptures that prove our position in Christ and the transformative power He has given us to change. Let’s be clear and take action.

Let’s Be Clear: The Clarity Series, Session 5. In this eye-opening session, Tamara Hall uncovers The Strength Illusion—the false sense of strength we often wear like armor to hide our exhaustion, trauma, or fear. With clarity and conviction, she challenges the cultural norms that celebrate independence at the cost of spiritual intimacy and emotional honesty.
What if what we call “strength” is really just survival? What if God is calling us to surrender instead of striving?
Through biblical truth and personal insight, Tamara invites listeners to trade self-made strength for God-given power. This isn’t about appearing strong—it’s about being strong in the Lord and in the power of His might (Ephesians 6:10).
Grab your Bible, your notebook, and your honesty—this one goes deep.
LOC NDBS 8-Week Clarity Series – Session 4: The Problem with Fitting In
Pastor Ahmad Hall | July 1, 2025
In Session 4 of LOC’s NDBS, Pastor Ahmad Hall leads a bold and necessary conversation titled The Problem With Fitting In. This session challenges us to confront the ways we shrink, stay silent, or play small—just to maintain peace or preserve relationships. We often dumb down our calling to fit into friendships, family dynamics, romantic relationships, and even professional circles. Sometimes we withhold truth not because we don’t know it, but because we fear others will feel intimidated or jealous.
This NDBS experience dives deep into the subtle compromises we make—how we lose authenticity to avoid conflict, dilute our light to keep others comfortable, and betray our own identity to “keep the peace.” Pastor Hall pushes us to examine these patterns through a biblical lens and invites us to reclaim the courage to live fully, speak truth in love, and stand out as people set apart.
This is a study—it’s a mirror. Listen in and reflect on where you’ve been fitting in when you were called to stand out.
Title: The Influence — A Conversation with Aaron Cowart
In this powerful and timely episode of Conversations with Daisy Jones, we close out our month-long celebration of men and fatherhood with a conversation that goes deeper than trends and titles.
Aaron Cowart—husband, father, pastor, grandfather, and teacher—joins Daisy to explore the true meaning of influence in a culture where the term is often reduced to followers, likes, and viral moments.
In a world where “influencer” often means visibility, likes, and viral trends, this conversation goes deeper.
We’re talking about:
🔹 What real influence looks like in today’s culture
🔹 The power of presence in fatherhood
🔹 Generational legacy, integrity, and spiritual leadership
🔹 Why faithfulness > fame
Whether you’re a father, mentor, or simply walking out your calling—this one will challenge and encourage you.

LOC NDBS 8-Week Clarity Series – Session 3:
God Has the Records
Pastor Jarvis Sanchez | June 24, 2025
In this third session of the Clarity Series, Pastor Jarvis Sanchez guides us through the sobering and assuring truth that God has the records. Pastor Sanchez reminds us that nothing escapes the eyes of God—not the injustices we’ve endured, the sacrifices we’ve made, or the growth we’ve experienced in silence.
Drawing from Scripture, the session challenges us to examine our motives when we declare “God has the records.” Are we using it to justify self-righteousness, or are we resting in God’s justice, mercy, and omniscience? Let’s be clear. This session invites us to release the need to prove ourselves, embrace divine accountability, and trust that God is both just and compassionate in how He keeps the record.
Whether you’ve been overlooked, misunderstood, or carrying silent burdens, this teaching offers both challenge and comfort. Pastor Sanchez urges us to check our hearts—are we using the phrase to rest in God’s justice, or to justify our own sense of pride? This conversation will meet you right where you are and help you realign your faith with divine clarity.
Listen to this heart-checking Bible study that will deepen your faith, challenge your perspective, and clarify your walk.
Episode Title: Juneteenth and American History

Together, we explore the significance of Juneteenth as more than a date—it’s a reminder, a reckoning, and a rallying point. Ahmad shares thoughtful reflections on freedom, resilience, and the role of storytelling in preserving truth across generations. With clarity and passion, this episode challenges us to understand the full arc of American history and to honor the legacy of those who endured, resisted, and ultimately overcame.
Listen as he surprises us at the end of the episode!

NDBS Clarity Series – Session 2: Triggered… Now What?
8-Week Clarity Series | June 17
Elder Nathan Jones
In Week 2 of the Let’s Be Clear Clarity Series, Elder Nathan Jones takes us into the heart of emotional honesty with a powerful session on what to do when we’re triggered. Whether it’s a word, a moment, or a memory—something stirs us, and suddenly emotions rise. But as believers, we must pause and ask: Now what?
With transparency, biblical depth, and practical insight, Elder Jones teaches that while triggers are real, they don’t have to dictate our response. The real growth happens when we invite the Holy Spirit into the moment and ask the deeper question:
“Is God being glorified by my response?”
This teaching will challenge and equip you to move from reaction to reflection—transforming moments of pain into opportunities for clarity and maturity.
Episode Title: “Manhood, Mental Health & Mission” — A Conversation with Jonathan McKenzie
In this powerful and transparent episode of Conversations with Daisy Jones, we sit down with Jonathan McKenzie — a devoted husband, father of four, senior noncommissioned officer in the U.S. Army, and clinical counseling graduate student from the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Together, we dive into the layered experiences of manhood, faith, and leadership while exploring critical issues around mental health, especially for men of color. Jonathan shares his personal journey, cultural background, and how emotional wellness plays a vital role in how we show up in life, in relationships, and as fathers.
Passionate, wise, and full of compassion, Jonathan reflects on what it means to walk with purpose—and how choosing wholeness is a powerful act of strength.
Whether you’re a man trying to carry it all or someone who loves one, this episode will leave you encouraged, challenged, and reminded that there are men leading and rising to the challenges of manhood and fatherhood.

Episode Title: The Strength of a Man – A Conversation with Pierre Balentine
In this compelling episode of Conversations with Daisy Jones, we sit down with Pierre Balentine—a retired Chief Warrant Officer 3, former restaurateur, and current CEO of NuChoice Foods—whose story is marked by deep love, profound loss, and extraordinary resilience.
Pierre opens up about life with his beloved first wife, who battled cancer and ultimately died by suicide after 26 years of marriage. At the time, their only child was still very young. With honesty and strength, he shares the pain of loss, the journey through grief, and the challenges of single fatherhood.
Now remarried and a father of four sons in a beautifully blended family, Pierre also reflects on the realities of navigating race and identity in a cross-cultural household. As a Black man married to a white woman raising both biological and bonus sons—some Black, some white—Pierre offers thoughtful insight into what it means to lead a family through love, unity, and purpose.
This is not just a conversation about fatherhood—it’s about grace, identity, manhood, and healing across generations. You’ll be moved, inspired, and reminded that true strength is often shaped in the shadows—and revealed in how we love.
