Season 9 - Episode 5 - Finding Gratitude Loving Others

This week I speak with Hewlette Pearson who taught incarcerated persons and returning citizens general education, job readiness skills, character education, and life skills. She is the president and founder of iLove Now, Inc., a non-profit organization that promotes love through humanitarian programs and activities in inner-city communities. Two of its flagship events include: •Lunch in the Park for The Homeless—where food, hygiene products, clothing, prayer, and a listening ear are provided to those in need. •The Love Thrives Community Conference—a biennial event focusing on the spiritual and personal development of persons in communities. Hewlette’s enthusiasm for empowering others to pursue purpose and authenticity is palpable. Her pursuit of excellence in teaching, motivating, and preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ led her to earn master’s degrees in education and divinity from Johns Hopkins University and Regent University, respectively. She also holds a Doctor of Divinity degree from Emet Theological Seminary. A gifted non-fiction writer and aspiring fiction author, Hewlette has published three impactful books:•The View from the Mountain: The Process of Destiny, foreword by Keith Duncan •The Most Important Word, with a foreword by legendary Gospel artist Andraé Crouch •Get Got! Empowerment for Every Day Life SuccessesHewlette’s ministry and humanitarian efforts have taken her across the Caribbean, Africa, and the United States. She was a keynote speaker at the Pastors’ Wives International Conference in Kigali, Rwanda, and a guest speaker and missions sponsor at an assembly in Kampala, Uganda, in 2023. In January 2024, she served as keynote speaker at The Mr. & Mrs. Adams Family Life Conference in West Palm, Florida, and in October 2024 was the opening keynote speaker at the 30th Year National Women’s Conference of the Jamaica Council of Churches of God 7th Day. Today, Hewlette continues to travel globally, teaching and preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ and motivating others to practice love and goodness on earth. Empowering others gives her joy, but God is her passion. We look at her childhood up to the present to find the beautiful thred of Jesus in her life.
