One will do everything necessary to get to their place of passion. Why? you might ask, because it is only in that place you accomplish the will and destiny for your life, if, you are listening to God’s directives. I believe it is in this place that purpose is derived. “There’s power in your passion.” Roy has also covered major events with backstage access, like The Stellar, and Dove Awards, AgapeFest, Tamela Mann, Marvin Sapp, and James Fortune tours, along with Winter Jam 2013 - Roy “King” Jackson, Vice President 2016, and SXSW 2013 and 2014, The Festival of Praise, and most recently, Tasha Cobbs’ “One Place Live Tour.” “My wish for Elev8 is to engage our readers, with uplifting stories, interviews, and information that bring change and empowerment through the pages.
