  Key Quotes

 

• 8:50 - "I want to be able to someday walk around a city and just see in the houses and the neighborhoods and and the businesses and the different expressions. I wish they were all just expressions of family values."
• 21:20 - "One of the reasons why Elijah is a multi-generational father or patriarch is that he was the first prophet to set up schools of prophets. He was the first prophet to have a successor that he had trained and gave a double portion, which is the sons, the firstborn sons portion of his spirit. This is why I believe it's really important not to pinpoint a patriarch or fatherhood to married men. He had sons all over the place. And now, he represents the multi-generational father spirit in the scriptures."
