Author of Something She Can Feel
Creator of The Something She Can Feel Relationship Conference
"The book Something She Can Feel provides men with insight on a woman's emotional needs and provides women with a means to articulate their emotional needs in ways that only men can comprehend."
TM::This conference provides a great avenue for individuals to define or redefine what is considered to be a healthy relationship. Our life is a sum of the people we know, the experiences we have and the information that we receive. The conference provides an opportunity to meet and interact with new people with fresh perspectives, have an experience that will be a blessing to your life and the lives around and to take in some information from some very powerful and successful speakers, whether single, engaged or married. We will also have lots of fun an laughs together.
DIVINE::What made you create the Something She Can Feel Relationship Conference?
TM::The reason I felt that this conference was so important is because I have heard a lot of spiritual answers and reasons for how and why relationships should work but I have not often heard anyone deal with marriage outside of just an institution of “Legal Sex” that frees you from guilt. I wanted to help people establish some sense of purpose for every relationship in their lives so they have a better chance at picking the right partner that goes with their overall purpose. The Bible tells us that where there is no vision, people will perish. We see this with the divorce rate even in the church being 52% - 55%. I wanted to deal with the practical side of marriage and relationships and allow individuals an opportunity to deal with some of the issues that they are afraid to talk about or even expose in church.
DIVINE::Why are healthy relationships so important?
TM::Healthy relationships have the propensity to provide confidence and drive in every other area of a person’s life. Notice that when people struggle in their relationships, it bleeds over into work relationship issues, excessive spending on drinks or a means of finding fulfillment somewhere else. It eventually induces stress and discomfort which makes life a little more difficult than it should be. A healthy relationship gives you a better chance at being successful in your own life and to be a blessing to the lives of others.
DIVINE::What can we learn from bad relationships?
TM::Bad relationship can help you learn about yourself and teach you what you do want in a relationship. The one thing it should not do is make an individual become bitter and give up on the hope of good healthy relationships. Love always hopes, love always trust and love keeps no records of wrong. The minute a person stops trusting, stop hoping for the best and keeping records of every wrong, then it is at that moment that they have allowed someone to take away their ability to love and we can’t let that happen.
DIVINE::You have also created a teen conference, what was your motivation behind
creating this component of the conference?
TM::I think it is so important to help our youth define and choose health relationships early in life. We are going to spend time talking about teen dating and college transition. Instead of telling them not to date, we want to teach them how to date.
DIVINE::What makes you an expert on the topic of relationships?
TM::I don’t consider myself an expert. I am just a student of life and have a deep love for people. There are things that I have taken in over the past few years of teaching relationship conferences and hosting a radio talk show. I decided to share my findings in my new book, Something She Can Feel. I believe that it will truly be a blessing to many.
DIVINE::Your newly released book is all about relationships, what do readers have to look forward to in your book?
TM::This book goes into great detail about the Biblical and practical understandings surrounding the emotional needs of women. It provides men with insight on this topic and provides women with a means to articulate their emotional needs in ways that only men can comprehend. It is truly a great book and the feedback has been phenomenal. I am looking forward to the outcome of the Relationship Conference, further impact of the book and what they both will do for the lives of believers.
