Tyler Perry Rocks ...Interview from CBN "The 700 Club" (1706 hits)

Tyler Perry – writer, producer, director, and actor extraordinaire – went from the poverty-stricken streets of New Orleans to a multimillion-dollar mansion outside Atlanta. But the real story is that of his journey from homelessness to bliss.

Perry's rags-to-riches tale is astonishing and inspirational. His younger days were troubled, and he suffered from endless abuse growing up. The dejection and rejection caused Perry to do some soul-searching as an adult. In 1992, in an effort to find catharsis for his own childhood pain, and inspired by Oprah Winfrey to put it down on paper, he wrote a series of letters to himself.

Those letters would be transformed into his first hit musical, "I Know I've Been Changed." Perry's humble spirit and his faith in God kept him focused. He believed that God was calling him to share his story with as many people as possible so that he might help others.

Perry learned real forgiveness, deep down inside--a forgiveness that leads to success in the soul. He chose the stage life as a vehicle, and this new life has been a learning process, full of hard work.

But now Perry has reached out to millions across the country and in doing so has tremendously altered how people perceive and attend urban theater.

LESSON: Quit trying so hard to get "mainstream" to love you...and just support and like each other!!!! - From Pam Perry
