Algeron Wright
Algeron Wright has courageously championed the status quo as the ambassador of encouragement with his Top 30 charting radio hit Created To Win. In his own inimitable way, he speaks hope and purpose in the lives of the young and the old and delivers powerful messages with the release of his new disc, Heart and Soul, now available on all digital outlets and streaming platforms October 29th.
"Our God is worthy to be praised," shouts Wright. "I am humbled to hear the testimonies of how Created To Win has impacted so many people. It has become a daily affirmation for me. A bout with Covid and double pneumonia tried to sideline me and take my life, but God saw me through it all. I had to encourage myself and to speak God's word in the midst of the circumstances. I heard a pastor say we have to speak what we seek until we see what we have said. There is so much power in the words that we speak, Remember that God created the universe with the power of the spoken word and because we are his children, the same power is in us. We have the power to change our situations and circumstances. The bible declares that we are fearfully and wonderfully made and that overwhelming victory is already ours because of JESUS. How can we lose with the winning strategies? My faith was strengthened, and this recording is dedicated to winners and believers in the mighty power of God."
Wright continues, "Im very excited about this new album. I am grateful to God for the privilege of carrying his message to the people and I am thankful to Kerry Douglas and the Blacksmoke Music Worldwide family for helping me to take the message everywhere. Heart and Soul is a great record with some great music that you will enjoy over and over again."
Hailing from Columbia, South Carolina, multi-talented singer, songwriter, producer, and musician Algeron Wright, is back.
Algeron bowed in the genre with the release of Live in the Carolinas at the Stevenson Auditorium, garnering a Rhythm of Gospel Awards nomination. He followed that release with Live with Family & Friends, with featured appearances from Lowell Pye of Men of Standard, Angela Spivey and Izzy. This release was distributed through Central South Distribution.
‘Created To Win’, written by Algeron Wright and produced by Alabama's own Rod Turner and World Harvest Church Director of Music Christopher Lawrence Grey, is a daily declaration that’s sure to remind people that quitting is not an option. “No matter what we face, God has given us the strength to endure”, says Wright."

Credentials and Professional Experience
Terence & Keynia Hardley have a proven successful marriage of 23 years yielding six beautiful children ranging in age from nine years old to 22 years old. Keynia is a trained marriage and family therapist with a Master of Arts in Marriage & Family Therapy from Northcentral University; a Bachelor of Science degree from Ball State University which includes a double minor in Journalism and Marketing; and Special Education Certification from University of Georgia. Terence is currently completing his degree in Marriage & Family Therapy from the same university, while providing support to men and couples as a relationship coach.

Terence and Keynia enjoy facilitating workshops and conferences centered around helping couples and families. They have a Youtube page called Knot Hardley Broken™ where they create videos around topics related to couples, relationships and family. These videos have life-changing content that helps initiate healing, reconciliation, conflict resolution, and is full of just plain old good stuff!
Approach
The Hardley’s use an eclectic mix of therapy and coaching that involves ongoing connection, listening, and probing to determine the next best step toward meeting the client’s desired outcomes. Their conjoint services have been known to help couples experience greater connection, intimacy, communication, and ways of relating by learning strategies to navigate through the destructive cycles that create frustration for them. This non-traditional approach to meeting with couples, has not only shown effective with women, but has also allowed men to feel an even greater sense of support because another man is sitting in the room. Somehow when in this setting with the Hardley’s, both individuals feel a great sense of support, validation, and safety.
Terence & Keynia’s approach with families helps to empower them to manage their challenges with parenting, life cycle changes, and other life stressors. This duo is very acquainted with situations that often bring clients to therapy seeking help, and is committed to leading them toward their better days and relief.

They know the difficulties that can come with learning each other, growing together and becoming a well-oiled machine.
Terence and Keynia enjoy facilitating workshops and conferences centered around helping couples and families. They have a Youtube page called Knot Hardley Broken™ where they create videos around topics related to couples, relationships and family. These videos have life-changing content that helps initiate healing, reconciliation, conflict resolution, and is full of just plain old good stuff!
Approach
The Hardley’s use an eclectic mix of therapy and coaching that involves ongoing connection, listening, and probing to determine the next best step toward meeting the client’s desired outcomes. Their conjoint services have been known to help couples experience greater connection, intimacy, communication, and ways of relating by learning strategies to navigate through the destructive cycles that create frustration for them. This non-traditional approach to meeting with couples, has not only shown effective with women, but has also allowed men to feel an even greater sense of support because another man is sitting in the room. Somehow when in this setting with the Hardley’s, both individuals feel a great sense of support, validation, and safety.
Terence & Keynia’s approach with families helps to empower them to manage their challenges with parenting, life cycle changes, and other life stressors. This duo is very acquainted with situations that often bring clients to therapy seeking help, and is committed to leading them toward their better days and relief.

Deena C. M. Wingard is a teacher, preacher, pastor, writer, and attorney. Her mission is to spread the good news that Jesus loves us just as we are. Yet God loves us too much to have us stay in our brokenness, so Pastor Deena strives to tell a dying world about God's transformative power. She and her husband, Pastor Elgin L. Wingard, Sr., are excited about all God has in store for them as they walk together in their calling.
Pastor Deena Wingard was called by God to "Go" and spread the gospel in year 2000. It took her ten years to fully walk into that calling when she received the mantle of Minister in 2010. Due to her faithfulness and service, Bishop Gary Hawkins, Sr. ordained her as Elder in 2012. She has served in various churches over the years and in many capacities, including Sunday School Teacher, Church Planter, Corporate Prayer Leader, Christian Education Head, Associate Pastor, and Founder and CEO of Your Reasonable Service Ministries, LLC.
While Pastor Deena is grateful that God saw fit for her to obtain her Juris Doctorate Degree and a Master of Divinity, she wisely recognizes that what truly equips her to do the work of Christ is the Holy Spirit who rules, rests, and abides within her. As she accepts the calling of Pastor on her life, she still marvels at how God can turn dry and seemingly dead lives into vessels full of The Living Water and overflowing with abundance. She brings this same humble passion to the church she birthed: Shekinah Greater Love Tabernacle, Inc. (SGLT) SGLT serves to equip God's people to do God's work and build up the body of Christ, per Ephesians 4:12.
Pastor Deena published her first book, "Almost," in August 2022. Additionally, God has placed many other books in her spirit to write; thus, she is excited about bringing to life everything God directs.

EPISODE 35
Rabbi Art Wolfenson is married to Gayle. In December of this year, they will celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary. We have no children, but at present we have a German Shepherd named Coco.
Rabbi Art and his wife Gayle were ordained into the ministry on November 11, 2001, by Pastor Jay Jones and his wife, Prophetess Dietrus Jones, at Hands of Praise International Ministries in Fairburn, GA.
Rabbi Art and Gayle were sent out as missionaries to Mexico in December 1991. They were in Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico and travelled throughout Mexico.
After Mexico, they came to Georgia and settled in unincorporated Fairburn. In 1995, they started "To The Ends Of The Earth Christian Bookstore". In the summer of 2002, they closed their doors so they could spend more time travelling to conferences in various places in the US, and in Canada.
They spent their 20th wedding anniversary in Jerusalem in 2003. In November of 2004, they made their first of many trips to Brazil. In 2006, they returned to Israel on a tour with friends and family.
Rabbi Art and Gayle met a man by the name of Jesimiel Lima in Brazil and together they partnered in producing the Restoration Scriptures version in Portuguese, the first of its kind.
The Bible was later reproduced by another brother name Anderson Barbosa, and he is currently in charge of the printing and the selling of the Bible.
Rabbi Art's first book, "Liquid Diamonds Dancing" was printed in 1980 and is currently being re-written. It is a book of poetry and songs.
Rabbi Art has written two other books, "The Cry Of The Watchman" which is a call to the priests to shake themselves awake with the blowing of the Shofar. His second book, "The WORD that became Flesh...!" examines the nature and person of the WORD and shows us that "in the beginning, was the WORD, and the WORD was God". This simple statement is ignored or misunderstood by the majority of Christendom as many worship and follow a Jesus that is completely separate from the Creator of Heaven and Earth, yet again, we read in Hebrews that "Jesus is the exact representation of God", which stated otherwise would mean that one stands in front of a mirror and sees Himself.
Rabbi Art has written over a hundred songs and most of them can be found on his website: artwolfenson.com
In the year of 2000, Rabbi Art and his wife, Gayle, purchased a replica of the Ark of the Covenant.

EPISODES 38 & 41
Sonya McGuire is a preachers' daughter who learned to sing, act, and appreciate music at a very early age. With music playing such a dominant role in the home, Sonya felt there was no other path for her than to follow the unofficial “family business.” Initially, Sonya chose drums to express her musical creativity and talent. Later she developed a love for singing and directing, and she quickly became the obvious choice for musical director at her father’s church. Her music and direction was inspiring and dynamic. If describing Sonya McGuire in one word, it would be anointed.
Sonya is truly a multi-gifted individual. She is a gospel singer, recording artist, songwriter, musician, and was a Radio Personality for Freedom Radio. Sonya truly has ministry at the heart of all she does.

With vocal ability that is comparable to none and marveled by many, Sonya incorporates thought provoking lyrics with unmistakable jazz overtones into her music.

Her gift has made room for her to share the stage with artists such as John P.

The presence of God was so prevalent during her performances that they became much more than just a concert, they evolved into worship & unbelievable praise experiences.
