Pimping God explores a biblical path to correctly connecting to God without shakedowns in your place of worship. It will help you in becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ and not just a church member. I grew up in the church as a very small child, went out in the world and got tired of the people I was hanging out with and I thought one day that I did not want to be in hell with them and I returned to God and he took me back, and I became serious about where I was going to spend eternity. I became a disciple of Jesus Christ with a sanctified leader and the Holy Spirit from God. Is your life spiraling out of control? Do you feel like something is missing in your life? Have you considered the reason to serve God? Will you leave the world behind to follow Jesus? Pimping God is a good place to start.
"Mama Black Widow" is the nickname of Otis Tilson, a comely and tragic black queen adrift with his brothers and sisters in the dark ghetto world of pimpdom and violent crime. His story is told in the gut-level language of the homosexual underworld--an unforgettable testament of life lived on the margins of a racist and predatory urban hell.
What if I told you the whole world is based on Pimping..? From Business Owners (of all types) to Employees... Everything in this society is based on PIMPING. Therefore, pimping by definition is all about OWNERSHIP. On the flip side, hoeing is all about SERVITUDE. You don't have to be a brain surgeon to UNDERSTAND this. You just have to use your common sense. Anyone who sets out to OWN instead of SERVE, is setting out to be a PIMP. In all relationships, the same dynamic exists. Someone (he or her) is going to be the BOSS. Any man who says "we rule the home together" is lying to himself. In fact, whenever you hear a man say this, I can assure you HIS WIFE IS RUNNING SHIT!! Although your momma probably didn't teach you this but, THE WORD "MAN" LITERALLY MEANS "AUTHORITY!!!" While, "WOMAN," on the other hand means "SUPPORT." Most relationships in the west are defined by the proverbial POWER STRUGGLE. That's because in most western homes, the ROLES of men and women have been REVERSED. This is especially true in the black community. MEN today are no longer "MEN" (AUTHORITATIVE FIGURES). They have become "BOYS" only masquerading as men. Children being raised in these types of environments ARE NOT USE TO SEEING A MAN DELEGATING "AUTHORITY" IN HIS HOME. This is what the Black community has become... A BIG DYSFUNCTIONAL LIVING ARRANGMENT. An arrangement where the WOMEN are trying their best to be MEN and vise-versa. Black women got this BRIGHT IDEA (to try and be a man) from the dominant white society. But, what the white man did not tell them is, NO WOMAN CAN BE A MAN BECAUSE SHE WAS NOT "WIRED" TO BE ONE. And the harder they try, the more DYSFUNCTIONAL they become. White men can live with the BLACK WOMAN'S DYSFUNCTION so long as she don't get shit twisted. Because we all know he ain't about to deal with any disrespect from her. She know it too. For that reason, black men must no longer tolerate black female disrespect, either. KNOW THIS... The coldest PLAYERS on planet earth are WOMEN. Women have been manipulating men since the beginning of time. That's why men need to learn the GAME. Not to put their lovers on the corner; but to put them on some stricter rules, regulations and guidelines. Love it or hate it, the only men who have MASTERED THE GAME WOMEN CREATED, IS PIMPS. You don't have to be a PIMP to UNDERSTAND this GAME. But, you do need to PAY CLOSE ATTENTION. People, there is a shift in consciousness taking place in the universe. And there is nothing anyone can do about it. This shift, is a shift towards WHAT IS NATURAL. EITHER YOU GET ON BOARD, OR GET ELIMINATED. THAT'S IT. PIMP GOD, "What Yo Momma Shoulda' Told You" is not a book about teaching men to be PIMPS. It's about teaching men to TAKE BACK THE "AUTHORITY" THEY LOST TO WOMEN A LONG, LONG TIME AGO. JOIN THE MOVEMENT!!!
Traveling the country and preaching the Gospel has allowed me to see things within the body of Christ, which should not be. In this book, I reveal the parallel of a common street pimp and a pastor in the pulpit. The Word of God tells us that there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed. I invite you to remove the veil and take a look inside the condition of todays church.
“[In Pimp], Iceberg Slim breaks down some of the coldest, capitalist concepts I’ve ever heard in my life.” —Dave Chappelle, from his Nextflix special The Bird Revelation Pimp sent shockwaves throughout the literary world when it published in 1969. Iceberg Slim’s autobiographical novel offered readers a never-before-seen account of the sex trade, and an unforgettable look at the mores of Chicago’s street life during the 1940s, 50s, and 60s. In the preface, Slim says it best, “In this book, I will take you, the reader, with me into the secret inner world of the pimp.” An immersive experience unlike anything before it, Pimp would go on to sell millions of copies, with translations throughout the world. And it would have a profound impact upon generations of writers, entertainers, and filmmakers, making it the classic hustler’s tale that never seems to go out of style.

The pimp has reached nearly mythical status. We are fascinated by the question of how a guy from the ghetto with no startup capital and no credit -- nothing but the words out of his mouth -- comes not only to have a stable of sexy women who consider him "their man," but to drive a Rolls, sport diamonds, and wear custom suits and alligator shoes from Italy. His secret is to follow the "unwritten rules of the game" -- a set of regulations handed down orally from older, wiser macks -- which give him superhuman powers of charm, psychological manipulation, and persuasion. In Pimpology,star of the documentaries Pimps Up, Ho's Downand American Pimp and Annual Players Ball Mack of the Year winner Ken Ivy pulls a square's coat on the unwritten rules that took him from the ghetto streets to the executive suites. Ken's lessons will serve any person in any interaction: Whether at work, in relationships, or among friends, somebody's got to be on top. To be the one with the upper hand, you've got to have good game, and good game starts with knowing the rules. If you want the money, power, and respect you dream of, you can't just "pimp your ride," you need to pimp your whole life. And unless you've seen Ray Charles leading Stevie Wonder somewhere, you need Ken's guidelines to do it. They'll reach out and touch you like AT&T and bring good things to life like GE. Then you can be the boss with the hot sauce who gets it all like Monty Hall
Where is Jesus when we need him most? An influential pastor shares how despair can lead us to discover true hope and a deeper relationship with God, helping us emerge stronger and more joyful from times of crisis. “May this careful look at pain in the context of Jesus’s life open up avenues of discovery and healing.”—Mindy Caliguire, cofounder and president of Soul Care We all experience difficulties and hardships. But how can we learn to live richly in the midst of them? And even grow spiritually because of them? The answer is found in the hopeful humanity of Jesus. As the Son of God, Jesus wasn’t exempt from suffering, disappointment, or injustice. He lived in the real world as a real person. He wept for those he loved. He felt hunger and thirst. He endured temptation, betrayal, and ridicule. He died after being unjustly tortured. And somehow through it all, he embodied hope—by defeating death and opening a new world of life for us. In Echoing Hope, influential pastor and blogger Kurt Willems reveals how understanding the humanity of Jesus can radically transform our identity and empower us to step into our pain-filled world in a new way. Combining rich theological insight with personal stories and practices for response, he shows how we can overcome despair and encounter the beautiful potential of our lives.
