And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. And those He predestined, He also called. Those He called, He also justified. Those He justified, He also glorified. What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:28-31 NIV)

The Founder, Senior Pastor and Prelate of Bread of Heaven Community Church Inc. of Virginia Beach, Virginia, Potts, Jr. said his purpose for collaborating with Grief Through His Eyes: Seeing Grief From His Point Of View was due in large part as a strategic way to share his assortment of life-altering testimonies with men whom, like him, have endured their dreaded seasons of grief.
“I wanted to help men, especially those who have a story,” Potts, Jr. said.
YES, LORD!
Having spent approximately two months to compose his selected chapter, Potts, Jr. would be the first to admit that his authorship debut has exceeded his expectations.
“I believe my message is you are not alone in your grief,” Potts, Jr. says without hesitation.
To his credit, his milestone of being a first-time author has been met by array of favorable reviews.
“I think so far, people have been encouraged by the idea that there is a voice in this book, which helps them with grief,” Potts, Jr. explained. “The purpose of this book is it help me to promote the word of God while encouraging people to live.”
Born to the late Bishop Naman H. Potts, Sr. and the late Mother Connie Potts, Potts, Jr. was nurtured in the way of the Lord at his father’s church, Holy Temple Universal Christian Church.

Generally, becoming an author has added to his notable and well-respected resume, both in the natural and spirit realms.
“I just want to say this book is by far a good read for any person who will purchase it,” Potts, Jr. said. “Grief Through His Eyes is not just for men, but ladies. I suggest (women) read it as well. I believe it can help you understand the men in your life and how they deal with those inward (struggles) held inside.”
