Only by the Grace of God: The Story of Sharon Dixon 

I believe if a person survives a horrendous ordeal and lives to tell about it, that person needs to be heard so someone can learn from it. Domestic violence is a silent killer, maimer and disabler. According to statistics, a woman is battered in the U.S. every 9 seconds. My friend, Sharon Dixon, was shot through the breast at age 22 by a jealous boyfriend and it left her paralyzed for over 30 years. The twist was that she married her abuser. But by the grace of God, you will stand in awe of the victories that Sharon realized. Sharon and I have conducted numerous booksignings, workshops, seminars, speaking engagements and appeared on local TV and radio programs. We help both potential and actual victims and families through the warnings and hope in the book. We also donate a portion of book sales to H.E.R. (Help and Emergency Response) Shelter. 

How Would Jesus Invest? Breaking The Poor Man's Mentality

Gayle discusses how Christians should follow Jesus's example of living an abundant life, both spiritually and financially. Gayle maintains that the Word of God and salvation are the top priorities of Christian living. She also contends that we need a healthy diet of biblical teaching to truly live as God intended. "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge..." Hosea 4:6

Christy
Demetrakis

Life is easy when we're coasting along without a cloud in sight. Often, though, a storm will come out of nowhere and drown us in rain. It is at these times, in the midst of our worst storms, when we find ourselves evaluating the path we've been following. It's at these times of uncertainty, when we find ourselves looking at our lives and wondering if we're heading in the right direction.

 

Author Christy Demetrakis refers to these times as "junctures" – crisis situations or points in time when a critical decision must be made. One path may look attractive (or easy), but that path may not lead you where you ultimately want to go. One path may look difficult, but it is often through adversity that true purpose is unveiled.

 

Faith to Conquer Fear: Inspiration to Achieve your Dreams offers a compilation of quotes, anecdotes, and religious references that will give you inspiration to tread the path laid out for you.

 

Drawing on words of wisdom from people such as Oprah Winfrey, Bishop T.D. Jakes, Colin Powell, and Thomas Edison, Faith to Conquer Fear will meet you exactly where you are. Despite your fears, you have the power to achieve your dreams in both your professional and personal life. No matter how small or lofty your goals may be, these words of encouragement will give you the motivation you need to move forward with confidence.

After dreaming of what success would look like on you, have you ever found yourself in a strange place of obscure isolation? In a place that’s far different from even your level of perceived expectations while at the same time you’re witnessing others around you experiencing seasons of success? Then perhaps, you're the "Man (Woman) In The Hole" and what you “must learn” is how to appreciate this season. Take a journey with Pastor Melvin C. Dawson, Jr. as he unveils a new perspective associated with God's purpose for placing you in a season of obscure isolation. Take a reflective look at the biblical story of the Prophet Elisha's dead bones bringing a man back to life (II Kings 13:20-21). Once you learn to appreciate this season, you will become overjoyed as you give [spiritual] life to others, as they help fulfill your legacy.

It's no secret, at least not among men seeking some resolve among a brotherhood of likely victims.....men who hide are usually hurting, and men who hurt often hide. Hut herein lies the great irony of man.....we hide out in the open! Yes, in some strange way, and for some even stranger reason, men consume their time in a "maze of visibility", hoping to camouflage themselves against the canvas appearance of normalcy, which in itself, is married within the confines of certain limits (and limitations) that define the range of normal functioning and an expectedness consequence of being usual, regular, or common.

After the Pain

Life has a way of teaching many valuable lessons. Often times those lessons are rejected when we are challenged with feelings of pain, hurt, disappointment, and other undesirable emotions. As we journey through life there are certain tools essential for successful progression through adversity. Our purpose is equipping and empowering the reader with those tools. 

 

In a society where we are often hurried along from our pain without proper acknowledgement, understanding, healing, or recovery; we must learn how to prevent trying to submerge or suffocate our pains away. Instead, we will assess each pain and ensure old scars, secret wounds, or shameful experiences have not developed into poor behavioral, emotional, or mental habits. It’s time to face the pain you may not be ready to share with others, and has potentially been destroying the fabric of who you are. When true pain is not addressed it will reappear later, and likely infect and effect multiple areas of your life. Take time to effectively heal, break the cycle of hurting others, and most importantly hurting yourself.

 

Take this self-reflecting voyage as emotional surgery is performed and a nursing view is used to coach you through recovery. No experience will go wasted again; no lesson ignored or repeated obliviously after you gather each tool from this book. You will utilize the personal power within!

Dive into this innovative, yet practical, approach to catapulting your life's productivity into maximum gear. Discover subconscious barriers which prevent us from living in our maximum potential. Often, we live our lives making decisions based on subconscious perceptions. These innate perceptions, if not properly aligned with achieving your goals, will consistently deny you full success. Therefore, you must become conscious of your thoughts, beliefs, and fears. Only after doing this, can you begin attracting the life you've only dreamed of. J.U.M.P. will not only inspire you through testimonials, but empower you through step-by-step principles on how to J.U.M.P.
