Editor's Note Words from the Senior Managing Editor… Greetings We did it! This is the final edition for the year. We have managed to make it through our first year and we would like to thank you all for supporting us and giving us a chance to both educate and entertain you with our enlightening articles. It’s a great time of the year to be celebrating such an amazing feat. The last two months of the year mark the season of thanksgiving and spreading cheer. This is the time of the year where we have two of our most important holidays, which is very suiting to present to you our year’s finale. We are thankful for you! We are thankful for the opportunity to share with you what’s on our minds as men! Speaking of our minds…the deep rooted issues of this country that continue to be barriers to our ability to get past issues surrounding racism, sexism, mental illnesses, and injustices that flood our social media timelines and the news outlets continue to be very much prevalent and should be addressed. We want to talk about it! We need to talk about! Better yet…we need to DO more about it! I will now come off my soapbox. But just know…the contributors of MOF, along with myself, are dedicated to bringing you more content on the issues that we as men need to address in order for us to better leaders; better neighbors; better fathers, sons, brothers, uncles, friends, co-workers…better MEN! Throughout the year our mission at MOF has beento address an array of topics that men not only want to hear about but also need to hear about. The well-versed contributors of Men of Faith Magazine all write with the goal to educate, uplift, motivate, and inspire. As men of faith we all must do our part in order to make this country a better place because the country needs more positive influences. We are in a state of emergency where it has now become imperative that we stand up and create a culture of positive change. We write with the understanding that men need to be able to do more in order to help rectify the issues that continue to plague our communities. We continue to strive to feed the mind and soul of men while encouraging all men to do their part in supporting the brotherhood of men.In closing…with this month’s cover feature, one of R&B’s smooth crooners that have managed to stand the test of time…Joe, and all the articles from the MOF scribes we hope that you enjoy the content within the pages of Men of Faith Magazine. Enjoy! Much Love! Hurley Morgan Senior Managing Editor RLRF MAGAZINE www.realliferealfaithmagazineg.com
