Objective:

In this day and time when women and men are active in the roles of wife/husband, mother/father, employee/employer, sister/brother or daughter/son, we need an encouraging word from God.  Evangelist Essie M. Jones is full of wisdom, accompanied with the spirit of God.  Her objective is to encourage and teach women and men how to fulfill the will of God in their lives, how to maintain a spiritual home, and how to be an encouragement to others.  Evangelist Jones comes to exchange weakness for strength, low self-esteem for confidence, fear for love and hope for a hopeless situation.
