Michael Jr. Explains God in a Simple and Brilliant Way

Michael Jr. explained God in a simple and brilliant way. The popular funnyman gave a short, succinct answer when asked how to define and describe the Creator of the universe. Watch the short but insightful clip to hear how Michael explained God and the role he plays in our world and lives.

People will often be asked to share their testimonies, how the Lord saved them and completely turned their lives around. Quite frequently, those are powerful stories that perfectly illustrate God’s love, mercy, grace and forgiveness. Where would we be without His forgiveness and grace? Of course, that’s easy; we would still be lost, living in our sin and shame, without any kind of hope or future.

But what would you say if someone asked you to describe and define God? How would you explain Him to someone who wanted to know how you view the Lord of the heavens and the earth? That would be a nearly impossible task. Most people wouldn’t even know where to begin when attempting to answer such a question.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Michael mentioned that he was asked that exact question by a celebrity, someone everyone would immediately recognize. Instead of stuttering and fumbling around for an answer, Michael came up with an insightful way to explain God and how He operates in the world and in our lives.

“I was like, ‘God is like a navigation device when you’re in your car,’” he said. ‘Have you ever been in a car with a navigation device before? We can start there. Y’all been in a car before? We can start there. It’s like being a car with a navigation device. If it says, ‘Go 10 blocks and then turn left.’ Then you go 10 blocks and turn right. It doesn’t abandon what you’re supposed to do. It recalculates what you need to do to get to where you’re supposed to be based upon where you are.’”

He continued to expound on his example of God and a car’s navigation system.

“The only problem is if you keep making the wrong turns, the road conditions may be different, and you’re running out of time,” he added. “So, you have to be sensitive to listen to that voice. So, you can make the right choice about where you’re supposed to be.”

Psalm 32:8 “I will give you knowledge, teaching you the way to go; my eye will be your guide.”

Lecrae Compares the Church to Chipotle—and the Analogy Is Surprisingly Accurate

Lecrae compares the church to Chipotle, and the analogy is surprisingly accurate. The Christian rapper and singer-songwriter shared his unique perspective on the church, likening it to the popular fast-food chain Chipotle. Watch the short but hilarious and insightful clip to hear how Lecrae believes the church and Chipotle are alike in this particular way.

The church is a word and concept that is mentioned throughout the Bible. When many people hear the word “church,” they automatically think of a building with a sanctuary, pews, a stage, a congregation and a pulpit. Those are the images and the items most people associate with a church. And given how most people are raised, especially in the United States, that is correct, according to what most people are familiar with and know.

While no one will argue that a church typically comes equipped with pews, a sanctuary and a pulpit from which sermons are delivered, that isn’t entirely correct. Simply put, the church is the people who believe in God and profess to follow His Son, Jesus Christ. Now, since the church involves people, there can be many reasons why one group of believers may not work for you. But that is no reason to completely abandon the church as a whole.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Lecrae makes this exact point by drawing a comparison between the church and Chipotle. That may seem like an odd analogy, but it most certainly works.

“When people say, ‘Man, I don’t mess with the church, bro. I can’t do it. It’s fraud. It’s fake,’” he said. “And I say, ‘You don’t mess with the church. So, you been to every church?’”

Later in the clip, he points out that he loves Chipotle but doesn’t always love what they do, and that his experience isn't always the best at every location. However, that doesn’t keep him away from Chipotle, but just that specific location.

“But I never say, ‘I’m done with Chipotle,’” he said. “I just say, ‘I don’t go to this one.’ So, it’s kind of how I look at the church.”

Matthew 16:18 “And I say to you that you are Peter and, on this rock, will my church be based, and the doors of hell will not overcome it.”

Nigerian Persecution Horror: Real-Life Superhero Fights Slaughter, Chaos, and the Unthinkable

Northern Nigeria is being described as one of the most dangerous places on earth to be a Christian — and most people in the West still have no idea what’s happening.


In this episode of Bible Bros (with Billy Hallowell and Dalton Harper), we sit down with Brad Brandon of Across Nigeria to unpack the brutal reality on the ground: targeted killings, villages burned, millions displaced into IDP camps (internally displaced persons camps), and extremist groups like Boko Haram and ISWAP (Islamic State West Africa Province) spreading fear under radicalized systems of Sharia law.


Brad shares:


Why he says Northern Nigeria is the epicenter of Christian persecution


How their team extracts converts with “contracts” on their lives into a confidential refuge


The heartbreaking story of a woman who escaped after being imprisoned for her faith


The reality of underground churches and audio Bible discipleship


Why he believes the biggest need is prayer — and how YOU can help


The line that will stick with you: “Find your Nigeria.”


If you’ve ever wondered what Christian persecution looks like in real time — or what bold, obedient faith actually costs — this conversation will challenge you, convict you, and move you to action.
