THE BOOK
If You Can “Huh?” You Can HEAR
Recognize God’s Voice for Yourself

1998. My girlfriend called. She was pregnant with my first child. On a shelf sat a little Bible I got when I was confirmed. I carried it from apartment to apartment like furniture. Always visible. Never opened. That night, I opened it. “God, You need to show me who You are… and the first contradiction I find… I’m out.” I never needed the backup plan. I kept reading. And somewhere in those pages… I was learning how God sounded. HEAR is how you learn it for yourself.
HEAR is a Christian book about recognizing God’s voice for yourself. Not through somebody else’s relationship with God. Through your own, grounded in Scripture. Every “Huh?” comes from one of three places. You heard something you don’t understand. You heard something you don’t want to understand. Or you heard it just fine… and you’re stalling. Nobody says “Huh?” to silence. Something reached you.
Hear Quality™
Hear Quality™ is the developing ability to recognize, test, understand, and faithfully respond to God’s communication while remaining grounded in Scripture, humble about our limitations, and aware of the influences competing for our attention.

How HEAR happened
Years ago, Apostle Carlos Malone Sr. asked me to teach one lesson at a Bible Study Boot Camp at The Bethel Church in Miami. I chose one topic… How to Hear God. Those notes sat in a box for eighteen years. I moved four times. Then my sister Ayana called. She was starting a business and needed what was in that box. I walked straight to it. A couple of days turned into this book. God gets the glory.
