Moment of Truth
Divas of Damascus Road
Were it not for the wedding of her beloved aunt Gloria, Dianne would never have returned to Dentonville. She has been gone for twenty years and even that can't erase the terrible pain of her early life as the child of a drug-addicted and mentally ill mother. Being blamed as a child for the death of her baby sister, Shannon, she has grown up with a broken spirit and shattered heart that has led her all too often into the beds of "bought" men she barely knows. But Dianne isn't the only woman running from her past. Her younger cousins, Yolanda and Regina, whom Dianne thinks of as sisters, struggle with their own demons: one remains trapped by an eating disorder and the other is paralyzed with fear at the thought of an intimate relationship with a man. It is easy to blame Dianne's schizophrenic mother, Joyce Ann, for all of their problems. However, it is Gloria, the most trusted and seemingly stable member of the family, who harbors the most devastating and life-altering secrets of all.
Boaz Brown
What if the right man is the "wrong" color?
In her debut novel, Boaz Brown, Michelle Stimpson pulls from her roots as a native Texan and a self-proclaimed church brat to take a poignant look at the ugly truth about racism in the African-American community. It forces Christians of all races to re-examine their roles in the continued perpetuation of segregation and discrimination in the more private areas of daily life. As the main character, LaShondra Smith, finds herself falling in love with a man of a different race, she must grapple with the racist attitudes of friends and family - as well as her own strongly held beliefs.

Newsflash: deliverance is a full-time job, particularly when it comes to destructive habits that overlap with legitimate needs like eating. Members of your church or organization will be more productive through joining Michelle in rediscovering the source of the daily cycle of defeat, pointing to our Lord and Savior as the answer to a battle that millions face anew every morning. Learn how to walk in the habit of deliverance through examining motives, identifying lies from our adversary, and combating those lies with the truth of Gods' word.
