God Has Spoken Ministry (GHSM) was established as an online ministry in the summer of 2017. Two years prior, God had directed us to create an online presence that would minister to the needs of those working in urban education. From 2015 until our launch in 2017, we prayed, seeking God’s Will and asking for His Direction. In the winter of 2016, God gave us the name – God Has Spoken Ministry: Spiritual Principles to Guide Urban Education. 

Using Spiritual Principles to Guide Urban Education seemed a natural fit since our secular work was in urban education, namely public schooling. Our background included more than two decades of service in the state of Wisconsin as a teacher and administrator. We were and are still teaching in the City of Milwaukee.

And so, we began our journey as GHSM. But somehow into the journey, we got off track. No, we didn’t drift away from God. As a matter of fact, our relationship with God is stronger today than it was in 2015, 2017 and 2019. 

Reflecting, we can identify at least three reasons why we did not have a continuous, consistent online presence. One, we spread ourselves too thin. We were traveling in too many ministerial paths. Two, we were covering too many topics in one conversation. Therefore, both the writing and the reading became cumbersome. (We were working on that SEO instead of focusing on the spiritual ministry of the conversation.) And three, we depended upon family members, church members, friends, and acquaintances to engage with us in the GHSM conversations. We failed to understand that GHSM was and is for YOU, the ONE WHOM we do not know.

Today we are turning the page and making a fresh start. Our goal is simply to engage in conversations that allow God to direct us in this journey that we call life. We plan to celebrate God in every conversation as we use His Word to give hope, to encourage and to direct us in our weekly conversations.
