    Hey BEAT family! It’s going down! This is my FIRST real spoken word poem on the beat. So, I really need your help. If this video resonated with you, would you give it a like and share it with your friends and audience? I want to make biblical illiteracy extinct! Let me know your thoughts below!

      Loved it! I sent it to a group of ladies that I study the word with 🙂 We just ended a social media fast where we substituted our social media time with reading and studying scripture along with prayer. I recently discovered your channel when I was looking for more tips on how to deepen my Bible studies. Your resources and channel were very helpful to me and I thank you for your ministry.

    I've always been a believer but not always saved. Last year I decided to die to myself and devout my life to God. And ever since things have come one after another. My car's transmission going out getting the lights shut off getting evicted a mountain of tickets for expired plates that weren't transferred properly that's why they were dead. Then most recent we got evicted from our apartment. Through all of this I kept praying and thanking God. My wife asked me why is all this happening and she was confused when I told her I was happy all these trials were happening I told her the closer we get to God the harder Satan will attack us so I see it as Satan crying for me to turn away from god. But nothing he has will make me leave God ever again.

Brother Allen this simple message showed your talent in communicating God's word but most importantly, it called us to be transformed by His Word, which to be honest I need to make a priority in my life, to read it, study it and live it every day❤. This was a "mic dropp" video. But since you always give Glory to God, I dropped my headset for you😂

    For the commentors,
    What version of the Bible do you read.? And any additional comments about your choice🙌

    Wow. Excellent Allen. Touched my heart & brought me to tears. I am currently taking your Bible Accelerator class & have been questioning myself as to why am I trying so hard? What is the purpose in all of it. I'm not a pastor, a pastor's wife a Bible teacher or anything else. However, I have been one so hurt by wrong church teaching & abuses that I need to find the Truth in God's Word for myself. Thank you for your sacrifice & doing what God has called you to do to bring others back to His love letter to us.

The message is SO ON POINT and we definitely need to fight Biblical illiteracy in ourselves first and then help others. It is certainly our own fault if as Christians we lack power. We can discipline ourselves to spend hours on social media and chasing things of the world, but can’t give the sorely needed time to our growth in the One who died to set us free. This will make me reevaluate myself and my time spent. I want to play this at my church with your permission. Thank You Pastor Parr!!

    Totally true, not know His word is the first step of losing the battle, you cannot go on the ring without proper equipment.
    You can only doubt if you do not spend enough time with the Lord and His Words.
    If you spend enough time in His Words you will know He will provide and you will readjust your schedule to not be too busy specially seeking useless things.
    If you spend time in His Words you know that you are forgiven and you know that it is a race, a race, not a teleportation.
    Great job.

    I truly needed to hear this today. I was just having a conversation with a friend last night on how important it is for us to read the word of God consistently. Our church’s Bible studies lately have turned into more of a worship and praise than an actual Bible study. Not that worshiping God is bad, especially before a Bible study, but I just want more BIBLE than FLUFF, and more KNOWLEDGE than that same pep talk we get about how we need to serve (I’m in my church’s media team, btw).
    Allen, thank you so much for letting me, and others know that it’s time for us to become more Biblically Literate, not Biblically Illiterate.
