Troy Lilly Named Associate Editor Of GospelPundit.com

I am honored to announce that I have just named contributing writer Troy Lilly an Associate Editor of GospelPundit.com.

Troy is a freelance writer and journalist, affiliated with the National Association of Black Journalists and the Washington Association of Black Journalists.  He also participates in the Urban Journalism Workshop, a partnership between NPR and the Washington Post, in which Troy mentors high school students in the DC-metro area.  In addition to all of that, Troy is a very gifted freelance photographer, with a more-than-impressive portfolio (click here).

Around these parts, we know Troy well by now… not only did he provide thoughtful weekly recaps of this season’s episodes of Sunday Best, he memorialized his experiences at the live recording of Jason Nelson and, most recently, provided an in-depth interview with San Franklin.  Plus, he’s got another major interview ready to run for you guys very soon.

In just several months, he’s proven himself to be an extraordinary asset to the team.  Not only have you all shown your respect and appreciation for his writing via comments, tweets and emails to me, I have witnessed, first-hand, his integrity and excellence in journalism.

I think the world of Troy’s ability.  And I’m blessed to know a guy with such a great heart of humility, coupled with a quiet confidence in his calling.  I am thrilled to have him on-board– and I do believe this website, and your enjoyment of it, will be even greater because of him.

Folks, will you help me congratulate Troy?  And follow him on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/UrbanSophistic.

Congrats, man!
