I’m almost afraid that in this new era of traditional vs. digital evangelism, many Christians will pass away with their work still undone. Most people come to me asking, “How do I navigate social media?” But what they’re really asking is, “How do I complete my assignment in this generation?” Even those who seem to have it all together can feel like they’re racing against time trying to fulfill every dream, every prophetic word, and every promise God has spoken over their lives. We want to break generational cycles, reach souls, and leave a legacy. But the truth is, you can’t do it alone. You need Resources. Systems. Structure. Clarity. Confidence. Mentorship. Community. Yes, some are called to smaller assignments, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. But I’m believing God for a net-breaking ministry where souls come in by the droves not because we did anything flashy, but because we chose to build together. If you’re looking for a community where we have real conversations about the Kingdom, content creation, ministry, and the marketplace, I’d love to invite you to Marketplace University. Try my 7-day free trial. Come on in. Let me welcome you. Let’s grow together and make sure your assignment gets done! - Copy = Makes people believe. - Offer = Makes people buy or join. - Content = Makes people pay attention. God bless. CJF Sd: I'm learning offers, copy, community engagement on a new level and implementing what I’ve learned in real time. We can't be afraid of learning the psychology of sales. Read books and study the collected data remove the manipulation and make money. No more broke church folks…. 🫶🏾 humbly submitted : Me.

What’s up, School of Fish Marketplace University family! It’s been a minute since I’ve posted in SMU News, but I’ve been working behind the scenes making some changes and planning more value for you all. As we advance, I’ll be dropping more mini tutorials inside the community social media, video editing, branding, content creation… all of it. I’m building this step by step so I can keep pouring into you at a higher level. And I want to say thank you to everyone who’s been here from the beginning. I really appreciate you. Quick update: as we grow, new member pricing will be $27/month for Standard and $147/month for VIP. You guys are vetted in, so you will remain free for now wink wink. I had to learn that as entrepreneurs, we can’t underprice ourselves forever. We have to value the work we’re building. If you haven’t yet, check out Alex Hormozi book. It really shifts your mindset on business and value. And if you’re still in a place of figuring things out, dealing with fear, or just trying to get consistent, that’s okay. That’s exactly why you’re here. We’re growing together. Last thing this month, we’re planning a members-only meetup downtown. The bean 🫘! We’ll hang out, grab food, and build real relationships & minster to strangers. And create content together. 🫶🏽 I will not be creating content or promoting our gathering. This is an exclusive invite-only extended to you guys. I’m excited for what’s next for all of us. Love you, guys. Keep building. Keep growing. Keep going. 🐟 Date coming soon …. Please message me if you have any questions or concerns Btw check out my first course posted in the classroom. 👩🏾‍🏫

Pray that God would make you a problem solver in your community. Imagine if God placed a burden on your heart to feed the homeless, start a youth program, help families, teach financial literacy, or create opportunities for the next generation. I don’t believe God sends people on assignments without provision. Many people are focused on building influence, but influence means very little without impact. As Kingdom people, we are called to be answers in the earth. We are called to solve problems, serve people, and bring solutions to our communities. Ask God what problem He has uniquely equipped you to solve. Then trust Him for the wisdom, resources, relationships, and opportunities needed to carry it out. Your influence may open doors, but your impact is what changes lives. 🐟 Watch Coach @Bakari Kamal & I discuss the importance of prayer & presence! It is a MUST have in ministry & marketplace. 🐟 What problem do you feel called to solve in your community? 🐟 Stay tuned I'm planning a School of Fish field trip!!! Btw 🐟 Cameras will be rolling all day! Oh Get your lunch money together! Chicago meet up. Coach Crystal Follow me & I will teach you how to be fishers of men. Matthew 4:19 - Jesus

It's 3:00 AM. I took a nap before writing this post, but now I'm awake with thoughts running through my mind, and I want to share something with you. How do you know when you're carrying a Kingdom assignment? Beyond traditional church. Many of you may be experiencing fatigue, frustration, restlessness, or even a holy dissatisfaction. Sometimes it's not mental. Sometimes it's not emotional. Sometimes it's the burden of the Lord. God will often allow us to feel the weight of His heart because He's inviting us to become part of the solution. For me, this next assignment feels different. It's bigger. It requires more boldness, greater faith, increased creativity, stronger leadership, deeper community, and a greater dependence on God than ever before. If you find yourself frustrated by what you see in the world, don't run from it; lean into it. Pray. Seek His face. Sit in His presence. God wants to reveal things to His people. He wants to download blueprints, strategies, and solutions. He wants to show us what Heaven is saying so we can build what He desires on Earth. Jesus taught us to pray: "Your Kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven." My question for you is this: What are you willing to do to pull a heavenly reality into the Earth? What is the plan? Where can we find a piece of Heaven built by your hands to stabilize the Earth realm? My prayer is that we create content that awakens and draws in God's children, creating a community that feels like a heavenly home where people can belong, grow, and thrive. This is why SMU was created. I have big goals, but more than anything, I want to experience a net-breaking miracle just like in Luke 5:6 In Jesus' name!!
