Bio:

Just as my dad and his father before him, I was groomed to become the next pastor of Lost Hope Baptist Church. Forced to countless sermons, bible studies, and fund raising events, I grew weary. Not so much tired from all the activites, travel, and fake smiles, but from listening to old people tell somebody else's story. Why would I want to read and recite this stranger's story, when I have yet to lay ink to mine. As I stared at that weathered cross sitting in my pew listening to my father preach, I vowed this would be the last time I step foot inside a church again until my story was ended. I have traveled many miles to reach this city. Endless lessons have taught me that only God can judge us (after death), but who is there now, IN THIS LIFE who can pass judgement on the wicked? Bring justice to the sinner? Bring forth a reckoning to this cesspool we now call home? Order must be restored. Faith not in a supreme being, but in man must be revived.

Where God chooses to sit idle until our death, I Charles Bishop III choose to purge these lands of filth. Exodus 2:11 states - "One day, after Moses had grown up, he went out to where his own people were and watched them at their hard labor. He saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his own people. Looking this way and that and seeing no one, he killed the Egyptian and hid him in the sand."

Sure, Moses was a great leader, an emancipator of his people and a prophet. Many people have tried to imitate Moses throughout the years, and many have failed. Not because of effort, but because they were lacking in the skills required to finish the job. Hopes and dreams are not enough to restore order in this vile city. Martin Luther King may have had a dream, but Moses had a body count.
