The Altar Experience w/ Prophetess Moina Tucker
The journey from being misunderstood to discovering your true potential often requires someone who can see the diamond beneath the rough exterior. In this profound conversation with Prophetess Moina Tucker, founder of The Altar Experience, we uncover how early labels nearly limited her future before a dedicated teacher recognized her gifts.
Prophetess Tucker shares her remarkable transition from being placed in remedial classes to discovering her spiritual calling. With raw honesty, she reveals how mentorship transformed her life and shaped her ministry philosophy: "Seeing people, not looking at them." This powerful distinction guides her approach to connecting with those who might feel judged or excluded in traditional religious settings.
Through vivid metaphors, Tucker explains how diamonds form deep within the earth until they become so magnificent the pressure pushes them to the surface, where they finally shine when exposed to air. Similarly, many of us wait beneath the surface for someone to recognize our potential or for circumstances to push us toward our destiny.
The conversation takes a practical turn as Tucker addresses the challenges of balancing multiple roles—pastor, military veteran, publisher, wife, mother, and grandmother. Her candid admission that "sometimes I didn't have it together" offers refreshing permission for listeners to acknowledge their own struggles. Her wisdom shines in statements like "You can't pour from an empty cup" and "Have your moment, but don't let your moment have you"—acknowledging emotions while refusing to be defined by them.
For anyone questioning their purpose or facing setbacks, Tucker provides actionable guidance: align your work with your passion, study your craft, learn from others, and most importantly, protect your energy by setting boundaries. "Stop giving people the best of you that don't deserve you," she advises, drawing from biblical wisdom about discernment.
Whether you're seeking spiritual renewal, struggling to overcome labels, or simply needing encouragement to reclaim your power, this conversation offers both comfort and challenge. Share this episode with someone who needs to be reminded of their diamond-like potential!

Hello everyone, welcome to Beat For you and I'm your girl, brie Charles, the host of the show, and I am so excited about what we are going to be running all month long, and that is the altar experience. This was an experience like no other. I truly had a great time interviewing some of the guests at the altar experience. I want to just thank, right now, pastor Moena Tucker and Jamie Tucker for inviting me out to the altar experience, where I was blessed beyond measure with the words that was coming out, so I'm hoping that you as well here, my listeners are just as blessed as I was to hear some of the interviews and some of the entertainment that we will be showing all month long. So take a look, enjoy and remember, burn through the pad, break the cycle and become unstoppable. This is what it's all about. Check it out.
Speaker 1:Well, well, well. We have Prophetess Moena Tucker, the backbone of the altar experience and good friend friend for over 25 years has invited me out to this amazing experience, and when I tell y'all y'all could see, y'all could see that I have been overpoured into. This moment of the hour has brought amazing. The word amazing isn't even the proper word for the experience that I got here this weekend. This was a powerful event and I just want to say publicly thank you so much for inviting me out to this. So, moina, tell my audience a little bit about yourself.
Speaker 2:Oh gosh, where can you begin with the testimonies? Um, well, I think it's important for me to start off, because I know you know the heart of what you do and we went through something similar and looked over. Tell a week, we'll be able to do this and do that. Um, so for me, my started. I loved reading, but I read them in a quirky way. I would go from the back to the front and when I got to school they said I had a learning disability and they put me in remedial reading. But I loved to read in what case it might be, but because they labeled me I was in a special class. So I stayed in a special class until somebody you'll see when we're going somebody saw Like no, you are not remedial or special you're gifted and what they were giving me wasn't challenging, right, and from that point on I had to.
Speaker 2:Um, I was given her name was diane richardson and she kept in touch with me. I'm going to be 55, 54. She just died February. So she was in my life from age 11 up until she passed away February this year and she was the first person to buy me my first pair of dress shoes, teaching me how to eat in a restaurant and put me in a poetry class. So I'm saying that is that I had someone to see a diamond in the rough.
Speaker 2:And from that point on, when you told me I couldn't, I was going to, just because you told me I couldn't, right, and it just got, you know, bolder and bolder with that Like, come on challenges. We went to the military. She was 30. I was 28. And my mom was like you're 2L, you got three kids, you know. And I'm like, no, I bet I am. And there were times I wanted to quit, there were times you're going to want to quit. But what made me keep going is the fact that the drill started Like just quit, you can't do it. And that motivated me. Right, because I'm like you don't get to tell me You're not my father, you're not God, you didn't create me, so you don't get to tell me you're going to quit. And so I worked harder. When everybody was sleeping, I was running the track. Faith without works is dead. I had the faith and I put in the work. There it is, and it was because the faith and the work together, things began to manifest. And so you know my military journey.
Speaker 2:I never thought I would be a speaker, a pastor, none of this. I just never saw it. But that's what I love about God he peeks into your future. He knows what you're going to do, when you're going to do it, even if you fall off course. He's always a GPS. And so he led me to the heart of ministry. The heart of my ministry is women that have been broken. I know what it feels like to be rejected. I know what it feels like to grow up in a home without a father. You know my mom wasn't a beast, but she worked all the time, so I was taking my older brother. So you know, I know what it feels like to be in a room full of people by yourself, and so God has taught me you know to be okay. Sometimes we're not being okay. He's taught me how to encourage myself and, you know, define the good in people. And check this out. Diamonds are deeply rooted in the earth.
Speaker 1:Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2:You know how a diamond gets to the surface? How A diamond gets to the surface? Because it becomes so great, so grand, that the earth can't hold it anymore. And so the earth literally pushes it up to the surface. Mm-hmm, earth can't hold it anymore. And so the earth literally pushes it up to the surface. Because it gets so it irritates the earth and the earth is like you got to go, I can't hold you anymore. And so it literally, the pressure pushes it up and it doesn't get its shine until that first air hits it. Wow, wow.
Speaker 1:Until that first air hits it. And so a lot of us are just diamonds in the ground, waiting for the pressure, waiting for somebody to discover us, so that first air can hit us, so we can shine. So the altar experience has done just that for me. I'm going to speak for me. You had so amazing panelists that came and spoke. Oh, I wonder what? What drives you to? Because it's a lot. I've seen the work that you had behind the scenes. Behind the scenes, and, just being a woman, I know, know your, your heart is in your everything. You give god the glory to everything you do, and I'm sure he is what keeps you well, I mean, I don't feel half step and a half doing it, you know and you did not um you give your all to him and he says you're faithful for few.
Speaker 2:He made you rule over many and I like. Well, my motivation is I knew what it took for me to get to God. You couldn't come to me in no three-piece suit, no St John with your silk and all that on, because I'd be like girl. What can you really tell me? You know what can you relate? You, dressed in a $100,000 suit, I got a baby in my hip trying to find money to get pampers.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So I'm not interested in what you've got to say in your suit, and so I want to always be relatable to people, see them. That's why I don't dress in a lot of fancy stuff, not because I, you know, don't have the kid, but I want the people to see me. You, I don't them to all this because you know, and some people are beautiful and they do not knock it, but for me it's the heart of the women. If the woman in the Bible, the prostitute that washed Jesus' feet with her tears, if she walks in here, I'm not going to look her up and down and be like, oh my God, somebody get this sprayer. No, come on, babe, come on, I'm going to invite her in. And that's what the altar experience is about Seeing the people, not looking at them.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's good, I just got that.
Speaker 2:That's good. That was good Seeing the people not looking at them Right.
Speaker 1:Mona, what age did God reveal that this is what he wanted you to do?
Speaker 2:Now, amazingly, I've been seeing and hearing the voice of God since I was seven. I just didn't understand it.
Speaker 2:So, because I didn't understand it. I used to say it was ESP growing up, but deja vu. And it wasn't until I met my spiritual mother, apostle RDC Smith, and she began to explain my gift to me and tell me, you know thatle RDC Smith, and she began to explain my gift to me and tell me, you know that I had a gift from God. And then I met Mother Nichols and she finished cultivating my spiritual father. So God put mentor and people in my life to help me understand what it was that I had been out, and it helped me to be able to walk into a just like a pair of red bottoms. People think that you can walk on all type of terrain in a red bottoms. You're not supposed to walk on hard terrain in red bottoms. You're supposed to walk on soft, smooth material so that the red doesn't rub off. So you got to know the shoes that you're walking in.
Speaker 1:And you have some shoes that you are walking in. You have been married to my brother, jamie, for 33 years, pastoring motherhood army.
Speaker 2:Magazine PR media. My God Army Magazines PR media. My God Mona, and, at one point in time, taking care of my deal, mom.
Speaker 1:With a woman of your background, which are the things that you do. How do you keep it?
Speaker 2:all together. I'm going to be honest with you. Sometimes I didn't together. I'm going to be honest with you, sometimes I didn't. It took me a while to find balance, because sometimes I put my children before me and I was suffering.
Speaker 2:Sometimes I put the church before me and I was suffering, and so you can't pour from an empty cup and you can't lead on empty. And so there was some Sundays that I would come and turn and I'd be like I ain't got a word for you and I would get them all to myself. I was like I need healing and I learned how to get mine. I learned that I ain't got to get up there and preach. I ain't got to have a microphone. Nope, Let me get myself right first. Let me get mine so that I can get you help get yours.
Speaker 1:Let me tell you, it's a four letter word that I learned today and I've heard it numerous times. And here you come and you bring in that word right back to circle and that's rest. I've heard it now from Pastor Christy. I've heard it from the Deandra Rest. And look, you have to rest. You have to know when to say no. No, and it's okay to say no, to take a break, and you're also a grandmother, a great grandmother, can you?
Speaker 2:believe that. Wow, and a very active one, tim, a very active one. Just from my grandkids back, wow.
Speaker 1:A great grandmother. I ain't even hit that yet, oh my gosh. So, with all that encouraging, like I say, not everybody knows their purpose. Everybody has a story, but not everybody knows their purpose. I know I used to be one of those people until God showed me what it is he has for me to do and running these three businesses that I have been all of this and now out here speaking to people because God gave me this word to speak. It is really hard to maintain all that. What would you say to somebody who doesn't know their purpose, their path, and they're just defeated because they're tired of everything that they're going through? What encouragement?
Speaker 2:Well, I would just say insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but getting the same results, not getting the different results. So sometimes you're supposed to be doing what you're doing but you're not doing it because you're doing it the wrong way. And it takes a lot of prayer. It takes people around you you know like I'm helping you, it's a hey of prayer. It take people around you, you know like I'm helping you, and say, hey, brie, do it this way. It take people pouring into you, sometimes studying, yes, your craft, watching others that have done it before you, yes, you know, using your tools, research, you know. Study, the bible says study to show that self-approved. And um, you know you have to do both naturally and spiritually. And so when finding your purpose, your purpose, go with your passion, because I don't care what you do, if you don't have a passion for it, you'll begin to, you'll become disgruntled and hate what you do.
Speaker 1:Speaking about passion, I know we had a little when you had a little hiccup prior to the altar experience. Yeah, and it was. Most people would have had that situation happen and just blew up, got defeated, saying you know what, I'm not doing it, it's not going to happen. I mean, you could have done so much. When people are faced with things that could defeat them, what would you say? Because I've seen you, but I want you to tell them how do you deal with defeat? You do all. You've worked so hard to put together this.
Speaker 2:Okay, look, it turns out we gotta pause for the cause. Teacher lamar say they because they not like us.
Speaker 1:I'm not like them no but I've. I've watched you come up with a challenge and to where I was like, oh my god. And at first you were like drained, it was like sad. But I've watched you but I want you to tell them, being a woman, what you're doing and when. You were like drained and was like sad. But I've watched you but I want you to tell them, being a woman, what you're doing and when you were faced with challenge and defeat, how do you handle it?
Speaker 2:I have a saying a ponder that I've had for many years. I have many ponders, but this is one of them have your moment, but don't let your moment have you. Have your moment, it's have your moment, it's okay. The Bible gives you permission to cry, to grieve and everything, but don't let it have you.
Speaker 1:That's right.
Speaker 2:You need to have your moment because if you don't, it packs down and you, sometimes our emotions and what we go through is like an overpacked suitcase. We get to the airport and it's 50 pounds. That one pound costs $100 to $200. One pound. So instead I'm packing that one pound and carrying that dead weight around. Stop paying the price for stuff you don't need, stuff that's not destined to you, and so I'm learning. You know, if I'm not in control, I'm not in control. You know, do the best I can and have my moment. Don't let my moment have me. You know, and it's okay not to be okay and when I fall, get back up, dress myself up, try it again and learn from it.
Speaker 1:You know learn from it, because what? The whole weekend we've been saying what I ain't going out like that.
Speaker 2:We're not going out like that. We ain't going out like that. We ain't going out like that.
Speaker 1:Mona, thank you for having B3U out with the altar experience. It was truly an overjoy, an overblessing. I am wore out out. I know y'all can hear my voice. I'm gonna go back to that hotel room and I'm just gonna flop out, but thank you so much it's gonna be us.
Speaker 2:They're gonna think it's a grizzly bear and a family in there. It was funny because I don't really take naps and stuff, but my cousin, I stopped through my second alarm and she came and she said, mom, I need you to get up, baby. And I was like, oh Lord, you know. So the body's tired and you learn from it. And one thing I will say to you is each opportunity, each setting I'm in, I go back and I do a recap of what I could do better. You know how to improve and you know it is always about being better. You know doing better than it was last time and take the good and the bad because they work hand in hand, you know with it. And, most of all, just keep at your craft, keep practicing and invest in you.
Speaker 2:You know, have confidence in you. How do we know basic training, throwing in the barracks a bunch of females? They didn't know. And 25 years later we'll be sitting here as adults believers God knows Full circle. You know, and that's really what it's about. Trust the Adults believers God knows full circle. You know, and that's really what it's about. Trust the process and know that when you're going through it, it's not your final destination.
Speaker 1:And the biggest thing that I speak about is taking back my power. That's who I am. I'm taking back my power, taking my power back from so many things, so many people that I've given my power to. Oh yes, so that is my message, that will be my message for back from so many things, so many people that I've given my power to. Oh so that's what my, that is my message, that will be my message for at least a year. It's about taking taking back my power, and so I know who I am, and learning what to get rest and the Bible says don't cast your pearl amongst wine, because they will turn on you and trample over them.
Speaker 2:And basically what that mean is stop giving people the best of you that don't deserve you, because they'll trample over your gift, trample over your kindness, trample over you and go on to the next person. That's right. You have to use the wisdom first of all, and you have to be okay with saying no. Use your desire and pray about it and be like no, at this time I'm not going in that direction. Pray about it and be like no, at this time I'm not going in that direction. You know and just know, like you came here to you know, get your interviews, to get you know your content and stuff. But Brie also got what Brie needed. Oh, yes, I did.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know, I came here with the mindset like I'm just coming here to work, you know, to interview Dr.
Speaker 2:Capehart, so she was on that float.
Speaker 1:Oh my God, so I'm going to have to, oh my goodness, I'm going to have to share this story because my focus, I'm like, oh, I'm coming to interview Dr Capehart and blah blah blah, you know, and I'm having, you know, trying to study all the panelists, and blah blah blah, apostle Nichols, yes, she kicked it off and while I'm focusing here, she came in with the message, like and just, and I mean it was such a I've been poured into less behind measures. I mean I'm just, like I said, over, for how did you even pick that panel out?
Speaker 2:first of all, we had a lot of people that I could have chosen from. You know, I know a lot of what people would consider big name people. At first I inquired about Jatayla Carr Great, and I still probably get her but God was like no. And then Dr Valerie Moore was another one, but she wasn't available. And then Dr Valerie Moore was another one, but she wasn't available. I always have Apostle Samantha Bynum and Prophetess Aja Bynum, so it was a plethora of people that I could pick from, but God was like oh, a different direction, because everybody has something to say.
Speaker 2:And so he put these ladies that have their own unique style and they brung it in their own unique style. But the pieces of the puzzle fit. They did, they surely did. So I had a glimpse of what god was going to do. I just didn't know. You know which piece of puzzle was going to go here or go there, but I had a glimpse of what it was going to do and it turned out amazing.
Speaker 1:despite what the enemy tried to do, it came out amazing. And again I can't thank you enough of having B3U out to get Core Day 2 and to just be in your presence.
Speaker 2:And you got a lot to reflect. You know, go back.
Speaker 1:Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2:You'll miss stuff and you'll be like, oh, oh, oh.
Speaker 1:Yes, it was a whole part that I missed. I'm going to go back and, like I said, I'm here for a minute, so I thought we was having something on Sunday, but I am going to take, I'm going to replay all of this and I'm going to have my altar experience tomorrow.
Speaker 2:Oh yes, that's where I'm going to get mine too. I'm going to go back and be able to, because I was walking around but I kept that recorder on. I'm going to get what I need. I'm running, but I'm recording it so that I can go back and sit and look and receive it.
Speaker 1:We're going to be doing the same thing.
Speaker 2:The same thing.
