God's Child: Memoirs and Philosophy of Life

Terrence Steven Lake grew up as a black individual in Hamtramck, Michigan, surrounded by friends of diverse backgrounds. 
While he was able to build rapport with people from all walks of life, he was also known for speaking his mind openly. For instance, he once engaged in a conversation with a white colleague from a markedly different background, expressing his viewpoint that the white race, historically, had been the most violent group of people. He illustrated his argument by citing examples such as the enslavement of Africans by the pharaohs to construct pyramids aligned with specific celestial bodies. 
Upon meeting and marrying Valerie, Terrence found himself increasingly grappling with doubts surrounding religion. Questions about the nature of God, the universe, and humanity's place in the grand scheme of things began to trouble him. 
Through the sharing of his life story, Terrence hopes to convey the idea that each race has a unique purpose on Earth, and until this purpose is realized, those lacking enlightenment may pose a threat to peace.
