It’s encouraging, it’s inspiring, and it’s comforting. I commend my son in faith for this step of faith. We all need somebody to lean on, and someone to help us up the ladder to success. Minister James Raphael is that person. We support James, and I encourage you all to go get a copy, and let’s celebrate this work. - Bishop Donald Hilliard, Jr., D. Min. Senior Pastor, Cathedral International Perth Amboy, New Jersey Reading Minister James Raphael’s 21 Day Devotional: Declaration of Faith will help you lift your mind and heart to God. Reflecting on the guidance offered and questions asked might just open your ears to hear the voice of God. - Joseph F. Duffy, MAT, MA, MPA, MNM, LLD Retired president of Catholic Charities in the Diocese of Paterson, NJ James Raphael has put time and thought into this work and he shares from his personal experience of knowing God, being blessed by God and having faith to trust God as He orders his steps. I was blessed by reading this work and I plan to share it with others. A declaration of Faith is so necessary in a world where many people seem to have forgotten God or have lost sight on the advantage of having Him in their lives. This Journal made me more aware that I am not alone in my convictions about God and His ability to do anything. - Odessa McNeill, Th.D.
