The energy this past Saturday night at The Way Christian Center in Berkeley was unmatched! Ghost Ride the Gospel 2 brought pure fire, purpose, and community under one roof. Seeing so many gifted local artists, painters, videographers, and voices come together to lift up the Lord and bless the Bay was truly something special.
Huge love and honor to everyone who hit the stage and poured into the room:
Special Guest: Pastor Chris @chris_tiburon_thebarber

I pulled up to church to watch my friend @eastbaypulse and her son get baptized, with no idea I’d be ministering through music! When I arrived, she told me, “ @pastormu said if you showed up, he wants you to do a song before he preaches.”

What an honor and privilege to worship with Basic Ministries! The word that came from the pulpit was powerful and transformational. Right there on 90th and MacArthur in East Oakland is a hidden gem, and I’m truly grateful to know such amazing people. 🙌🏾✝️

I’ll be back ministering through music at Basic Ministries on November 7! Mark your calendars and come worship with us! 🎤🔥 9006 MacArthur Blvd Oakland, Ca

If you missed Lakefest, you missed the heartbeat of the Town this weekend. 🌲✨ From the music to the energy in the crowd, the community was fully hyphy and rooted in exactly what makes Oakland so special. The vibes were heavy, the sun was out, and nobody wanted to leave. 🗣️💯
Honestly, Lakefest proved it’s officially the centerpiece of an Oakland summer. It felt like a massive family reunion where the music just happened to be incredible. In fact, one day isn’t doing it justice anymore - we need to start demanding a full two-day weekend for next year because the East Bay showed out way too hard for this to be over in 11 hours!
Major shouts to @fabbydavisjr1 for staying planted at the Culture Stage and genuinely kicking it with the community, and @nefthepharaoh for bringing that main stage heat (and completely locking down the flyest fit of the weekend in that pink outfit). 🌸🔥 Big love to all the big and small celebs who pulled up to support local platforms and local talent.
Oakland is unmatched when we come together like this.
Drop a 🌲 if you locked in with us at the Culture Stage, and let me know if you’re down for a Day 1 and Day 2 next year! 👇🏼

What a powerful Rize Up Kids Sunday at B.A.S.I.C. Ministry! 💗💙🔥 Our young people did a phenomenal job, from going forth in Scripture to blessing the house with two incredible musical selections. It was a beautiful reminder that the next generation is not simply the church of tomorrow they are an important part of the Church right now! We give God praise for our amazing Rize Up Kids staff, who continue to faithfully pour into, teach, encourage, and train up the next generation. A major God bless and to Minister Imani Muhyee and the entire Rize Up Kids staff for their leadership, dedication, and commitment to this magnificent, Holy Ghost-filled ministry. The future is bright because we are intentionally placing the Word of God in the hearts of our children today. Train up a child in the way he should go! Rize Up Kids grow, and B.A.S.I.C. is ALL IN for the next generation! 🙌🏾🙏🏾💗💙🔥 by @eastbaypulse
