When life throws curveballs, faith is often the companion that whispers of strength and resilience. Our latest episode is a heartfelt journey through the narratives of those who have leaned into their beliefs to transcend adversity.  Marvis, affectionately known as Dukes, joins me with his vibrant spirit for a special Resurrection Day Celebration Show, unpacking the deeper meaning behind the day and the power of music to tell our most intimate stories.

Witness the wonder of a child's imagination as Dukes shares insights from his bestseller "My Superpowers Are Not Weird," complemented by the poignant writings of his brother Jayden in "The Honorable Bee." Dr. Audrey Ann steps into our conversation, igniting a passion for nurturing young authors and the joy of creative expression. Through laughter and earnest discussion, we explore the unshakeable bonds of love, the simple pleasures of childhood, and the importance of championing our little ones in their grand aspirations.

Set sail with us as we navigate the vast oceans of faith and trust, guided by the belief that there's a force leading us through tumultuous waters to shores of hope and possibility. This episode is an invitation to bask in the stories of triumph, feel the embrace of eternal love, and be inspired by the unwavering guidance that faith provides. Join our spirited exchange, and you may just find the courage to step out of your comfort zone and trust in the journey ahead.

was a lowly ant.
A lowly ant.

I sobbed and sobbed.
I even told my queen, but allshe did was laugh at me and told
me to go back to work.
I felt like I was a jester withno payday.

, like during the day guard forthe hive at night.
So everyone was just calm down,sit up, breathe, now continue.

My daddy said people in theycan't hear you.
My dad said people in thisworld will treat others
differently at times.
My mommy says people fear whatthey don't understand, sometimes

(37:53):
because it's the color of theirskin, but other times because
it is because how they are onthe inside, how they act when
other friends come around, maybenot how every kid at their age
might act.
At first I didn't understandthis, because I was taught to

(38:18):
love everybody.
You was taught to love who,everybody.
That's right.
One day, while my mom wasrunning errands, I asked Daddy
to take me to the water park.
Yay, I knew I was going to havea great time and meet new
friends.
I am so excited as I smiled.

(38:45):
I smiled as we pulled in theparking lot.
When I got excited, my insidesfilled with bubbles of energy
and I started to wiggle and flapmy hands.
You're going too fast.
You got to slow down a littlebit.

lead as captain of theImagineers.
As we were playing, I startedto feel the superpowers in my

(40:46):
tummy and began to flap my wings.
I got really loud and chumpy.
I thought if I showed them mysuperpowers, they'd think I was
cool.
I was cool, but they justlooked at me and ran away.
My heart got really sad andtears began to run down my

(41:10):
cheeks.
Why don't they like me back?
