What Others Are Saying

“This book is definitely a must read! It exposes many of the things that have NOTHING to do with God and all to do with tradition. Tradition that is no longer effective. Even if you disagree with 5% of this book, you just can’t argue with the other 95%”

PJ MORTON
Grammy award winning producer, artist


“83 Things is definitely a breath of fresh air. It’s a must read for anyone that desires to see the historically African-American church move forward. Along with caring critique Milan Ford also provides common-sense solutions for the church. The book is witty, engaging, and intellectually challenging. This book has the potential to revolutionize not just the “black church”, but the universal church.”

PASTOR ISAIAH ROBERTSON
Heart of the Father Christian Church (Atlanta, Georgia)


“I teach workshops on hospitality and this book will be a must read for all of my attendees. This book presents a tongue-in-cheek, but necessary opportunity for “the black church” to look at herself in the mirror.”

ROBIN WARE
Author, Founder of The Ware Agency


“Every now and then God raises up someone with a courageous voice to say some things that many people are whispering about in the pews, but will not say publicly for fear of being spiritually black-listed. Well, I believe God has raised up such a person in Milan Ford. In writing this book, he had the courage to tackle the “sacred traditions” of the Black Church which may prevent people from entering into an intimate relationship with Jesus.”

PASTOR MARVIN WILLIAMS
