The stars come out for the

 35th NAACP Image Awards

A Christian Place Magazine asked each star, if Jesus held a part in their life?  Each of them said that they thank God & would have nothing without Him.   They were thankful for the opportunity to present a positive image.  Photos are:  Kyla Pratt (Proud Family), Bernie Mac (outstanding actor in comedy series), Malinda Williams (Soul Food), Gabrielle Union, Camille Winbush (supporting actress), Raven (outstanding performance in youth program), Emmitt Smith (former Dallas Cowboys), Ruben Studdard (outstanding new artist soulful J Records/BMG), Wayman Tisdale (nominated for jazz artist), Smokey Robinson, Valerie Pettiford (half & half), TD Jakes (Presidents Award),  Judge Mathis. syndicated (outstanding TV, news talk or information series), Julian Bond chairman, board of directors of NAACP. .(syndicated).  As Christians we are called to a higher standard.  We are called to live  our lives in the image of Jesus.  He is our model.  If we focus on Jesus everyday, we will surely reflect his image in all that we do. says A Christian Place Magazine.     Interviews by Marcus Palmer
