“Life will always have its twists and turns, but our faith and prayers will give us the strength to continue this journey with hope in our hearts,” states the author. “This book is newsworthy to all audiences as no one is left out when challenges occur; we just need something or someone to understand that there is a force more powerful than we are that we can turn to in these times.”
