ABOUT US
Welcome to our website: Proclaiming Tomorrow; Today (PTT), a space where the past, present, and future begins today and merge into one. While it goes uncontested that the hereafter is where we will spend most of our lives; the “now” is where and how we live. Our purpose is to inspire, encourage, empower everyday people of all faiths, age bracket, and the faithless, to develop new attitude and skills, to deal with spiritual, mental, economical, and social issues of life. Our intention is to do the impossible and boldly go where no man has gone before,
Proclaiming Tomorrow, Today (PTT), stands on the premise that talking about a fountain that will never run dry is not appealing to the 25% of the world’s population, who will suffer from water shortage by 2025! It is imperative that we first help people, now, to feel safe to walk in certain neighborhoods before we can speak to them about walking on streets of gold!
The bellies of the one billion people, who go to bed hungry every night, would be growling so loud, they could hardly hear about a feasting on milk and honey in the hereafter!
A homeless man came to a soup kitchen and was told he had to come back the following day to be served. The question that came from his hungry eyes and quivering lips, is the quintessential reason why this website was created, “What am I going to do today?
Here is a truth that is worthy of all acceptance. If we do our best in the now, tomorrow will be much better. It is only the individual who is willing to risk going too far, today, who will discover how far he or she can go into tomorrow. Welcome to the website, Proclaiming Tomorrow; Today. And may the Lord bless you; real good.
