    Unlocking Faith S2E8 | Jesse Jackson & The Leaders God Chooses

    In this episode of Unlocking Faith, Marquis Wadley and Dr. Emory Berry Jr. honor the life and legacy of Reverend Jesse Jackson and explore what his leadership teaches us about faith, calling, mentorship, and generational impact.

    What kind of leaders does God choose?

    Throughout Scripture and history, God rarely chooses the polished or the perfect. From Moses to David to Peter, the biblical pattern is clear: God qualifies the called — not the qualified.

    As we reflect on Jesse Jackson’s role in the civil rights movement and the Black church tradition, we dive into:

    • Christian leadership and personal growth
    • Faith and activism in the Black community
    • Calling versus credentials
    • Mentorship and raising the next generation
    • The power of affirmation and transparency
    • Why leadership is about presence, not perfection

    Leadership is not about fame. It’s about faithfulness.
    You never know who’s watching how you move.

    Is Valentine’s Day Biblical? ❤️📖

    In this episode of the Unlocking Faith Podcast, Marquis Wadley and Dr. Emory Berry Jr. dive deep into one big question: What does the Bible really say about Valentine’s Day? 🤔💭
