“…people are destroyed for the lack of knowledge” (Hosea 4:6) Therefore, one of our best weapons is knowledge. We need to learn God’s ways so we can combat the tricks and ploys that the master trickster (Satan) uses to ensnare. This book is to help us “renew our minds”, break life-defeating habits, overcome generational curses, dispel useless myths and begin to ‘feed’ ourselves in a manner that is God honoring, health promoting and not Satan honoring and death producing. “Feeding” does not refer to just physical food, but also the mental ‘food’ we take in that keeps us defeated, down-trodden, broke and unsuccessful in our secular and spiritual life. Most of us do not know that what we are doing to our bodies, minds and spirits are not life generating or God pleasing. We have been tricked and bamboozled. This book will reveal some of the best tricks played on us. Tricks that cause needless death, severe aches, emotional pains, marital affairs, academic failures, mental problems, social concerns, sleepless nights and drug addictions (legal and illegal). Not only will this book expose what the tricks are but will tell you how to avoid and conquer their ill effects.

Many times we wander aimlessly through life trying to find the answer to a question that has plagued every Christian at one time or another; what is my destiny and how do I achieve it? We continue to find ourselves at the same old crossroads asking the same old questions--where do I go from here? Lord what would you have me to do? Lord, what is ministry? You know the questions I'm referring to. After awhile, we get so frustrated that we begin to seek counsel from our friends, relatives, co-workers, or pastors. We'll ask anyone that we feel can give us the answer we need, praying that someone, any one would shed some light on that ever darkening, bleak subject called "DESTINY".

Thriving stand-up comic and actress Yvonne Orji—best known as Issa Rae's BFF on the HBO series, Insecure—shares the secrets to living the life of your dreams. Yvonne Orji has never shied away from being unapologetically herself, and that includes being outspoken about her faith. Known for interpreting Biblical stories and metaphors to fit current times, her humorous and accessible approach to faith leaves even non-believers inspired and wanting more. The way Yvonne sees it, God is a Sovereign Prankster, punking folks long before Ashton Kutcher made it cool. When she meditates on her own life—complete with unforeseen blessings and unanticipated roadblocks—she realizes it’s one big testimony to how God tricked her into living out her wildest dreams. And she wants us to join in on getting bamboozled. This is not a Self-Help book—it’s a Get Yours book! In Bamboozled by Jesus, a frank and fresh advice book, Orji takes readers on a journey through twenty-five life lessons, gleaned from her own experiences and her favorite source of inspiration: the Bible. But this ain’t your mama’s Bible study. Yvonne infuses wit and heart in sharing pointers like why the way up is sometimes down, and how fear is synonymous to food poisoning. Her joyful, confident approach to God will inspire everyone to catapult themselves out of the mundane and into the magnificent. With bold authenticity and practical relatability, Orji is exactly the kind of cultural leader we need in these chaotic times. And her journey through being Bamboozled by Jesus paints a powerful picture of what it means to say “yes” to a life you never could’ve imagined—if it wasn’t your own.
