Today I pay my respects to one of my best friends, my brother, my teammate, supporter, a father, a loving son, and overall great person. Never in a million years thought I would be crying over this post for you and I have no idea how Iāll be able to watch what all you have been a part of since I directed my very first film. You were the one that always believed in me, you said I was going to be the one to make us rich⦠Iām glad I was able to get that love from you bro. Iām hurt. #LLJP

Every vision sounds clear⦠until itās time to prepare for it.
Scripts being printed, bags being packed, details coming together piece by piece ā trying to make sure everyone walks into the story already feeling it.
And then thereās the parts nobody seesā¦
running out of toner mid-print, making last-minute adjustments, figuring it out as you go.
All while still showing up in real life; being present, being family, holding my nephew in one arm and building this in the other.
Thatās the reality of doing it on your own. Not everything is perfect but the intention has to be.
āLet all things be done decently and in order.ā ā 1 Corinthians 14:40
Making @thesermonfilm Pt. II š¬
Some places donāt just hold memoriesā¦they hold meaning.
I wasnāt just looking for a location. I was looking for inspiration, and I found it.
Back to a space where faith was once taught,
where stories were lived long before this film was written.
Shout to my god brother @alenjadrobernard whoās been supporting me since I was filming movies on my iPhone8 š¤£

Before the lights. Before the cameras. Before everything had to be perfect⦠there was this moment.
A room full of people, scripts in hand, some stepping into leadership, some questioning what theyāre a part of, and others just trying to understand where they fit in it all.
You can see it in these moments⦠focus, hesitation, confidence, doubt.
Different perspectives⦠hearing the same message.
This was the foundation of @thesermonfilm
Not just lines being read but intentions forming, roles taking shape, and choices being made long before the cameras ever rolled.
