Carolina bestselling author Eraina Tinnin’s passion for reading gives way to her gift as an accomplished writer

September 10, 2019 Andre Johnson Leave a comment

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. (Psalm 139:14 NIV)

WONDERFULLY MADE IN GOD

EIGHT **ISN’T** ENOUGH — Given the immeasurable strides she’s made in recent years since she ceremoniously delved off into the ever-so-competitive industry of authorship, it’s safe to assume that Greensboro’s Eraina Tinnin’s best and brightest days as a writer are well ahead of her. Tinnin has contributed mightily to eight books to date.

Eight and counting.

For the record, that is the number of books accomplished Christian-based author Eraina Tinnin has written to date.

And, given the immeasurable strides she’s made in recent years — particularly since she ceremoniously delved off into the ever-so-competitive industry of authorship — it’s safe to assume that Tinnin’s best and brightest days as a writer are well ahead of her.

“God gave me the vision to write this book in 2014,” Tinnin, during an interview this week with Making Headline News, said, recalling the book that jumpstarted her debut as a bestselling author.

The book to which Tinnin is alluding is spiritually-empowering written work entitled, “Becoming a Beautiful You: 100 Day Devotional,” which officially debuted in March 2015.

BUY ERAINA TINNIN’S BOOK HERE: https://www.erainatinninunlimited.com/

A book that is comprised of 128 pages in length, Tinnin’s “Becoming A Beautiful You” is a daily devotional that helps women deal with a variety of strongholds, many of which customarily keep them from living the life they deserve, as mentioned in detailed introduction at Amazon.com.

“Women learn how to love themselves from the inside out and to see themselves as God sees them,” said an Amazon spokesperson for Tinnin’s ‘Becoming A Beautiful You.’ “By learning to overcome, with scriptural reference, such issues as fear, doubt, self-love and forgiveness, women will no longer have to live a life of defeat, but can begin to live a life of victory.”

For Tinnin, a native of Dayton, Ohio who resides in Greensboro, North Carolina, she’s been passionate about writing since the days of her youth, an awe-inspiring development that essentially was birthed largely because of her love for reading.

“I have been an avid reader since the age of four. So when God gave me the vision to write, I was surprised. I never thought of myself as an author. I heard God’s Voice. I listened and an author was born.” — Author Eraina Tinnin

And the rest, as they say, was history.

To Tinnin’s credit, in fact, she has composed seven books during a span of just under three years (or between 2017 and 2019).

Interestingly, she produced four books in 2017:

“Healing Toxic Habits” (co-authored)

“Affirmations & Antidotes That Remind Me” (co-authored)

“The Woman Behind The Mask: Identifying The Woman Hidden” (co-authored) and,

“You Are A Gift: A Teen Girl’s Guide to Self-Discovery.”

She then assembled two more books the ensuing year:

“Reflections: I Wish I’d Known: Stories of Hope for Women & Young Women” (which is a compiler of this anthology) and,

“God Is Able” (co-authored).

This year, Tinnin witnessed the release of Book No. 8 when “I Know Me, I Love Me: 30-Day Journal” debuted.

Much to her delight, all of that writer’s block she once endured is all but a distant memory.

“I began writing the book in 2014,” said Tinnin, referring to her initial project. “I had writer’s block for months. Finally, I asked God what was I supposed to say, because in my mind, I was still an avid reader and not an author.”

As Tinnin had ultimately found out is that because she made her requests known unto God, her Creator subsequently provided her with some life-altering detailed instructions.

“He said it was to be a devotional,” Tinnin explained. “Shortly after, I was able to complete the book and it was published in March of 2015. “(I aspire) to help women overcome areas that may hinder them from being all God called them to be. They are areas that hindered me and with God. I was able to overcome and I’m in the process of being all God created me to be.”

For Tinnin, a native of Dayton, Ohio who resides in Greensboro, North Carolina, she’s been passionate about writing since the days of her youth, an awe-inspiring development that essentially was birthed because of her love for reading.

A “Becoming A Beautiful You” book that has garnered “nothing but positive feedback” — “I’ve received emails and messages about how much my book has blessed people who have read it,” Tinnin added — this East Coast-based author recalls vividly how one reader even deemed it essential to buy another copy for her sister.

Talk about having a massive, kingdom impact as a Christian-based author.

“I began writing the book in 2014,” said Tinnin, referring to her initial project. “I had writer’s block for months. Finally, I asked God what was I supposed to say, because in my mind, I was still an avid reader and not an author.”

“God created me to inspire, encourage, and empower via written word and through speaking,” said Tinnin, who announced the forthcoming release of her ninth book (an anthology entitled, “For The Good: From Tragedy To Triumph,” which will be published later this Fall). “This book has been very instrumental in my purpose.”

Not only that, given the immeasurable strides she’s made in recent years since she ceremoniously delved off into the ever-so-competitive industry of authorship, it’s safe to assume this writer’s best and brightest days as a writer are well ahead of her.

Is Oklahoma businessman Carlos Morrison the beard growth industry’s best kept secret?

September 9, 2019 Andre Johnson Leave a comment

DON’T FEAR DA BEARD

**MAKING MAJOR MOVES —** Tulsa, Oklahoma entrepreneur Carlos Morrison ceremoniously launched Ebony Rise For Men in 2016, a credible product that was created primarily for men who struggle with beard growth and basic skin care regimes.

DALLAS — In case you don’t know him, Carlos Morrison would like to introduce himself.

A resident of Tulsa, Oklahoma, Morrison, 32, earlier this year was deemed a keynote entrepreneur through Black Upstart.

In addition, he was named Oklahoma 40-and-under 40 in Business & Marketing in 2018, during which he successfully created business profits for hundreds of individuals that same year.

MORE ON EBONY RISE FOR MEN: https://ebonyriseformen.com/

As if those notable accolades aren’t enough to turn heads, Morrison ceremoniously launched Ebony Rise For Men in 2016, a credible product that was created primarily for men who struggle with beard growth and basic skin care regimes.

Specifically created for ethnic men ages ranging in ages 18 to 65 — most notably those with coarse, curly, or oily facial hair — Morrison’s Ebony Rise For Men can customarily be applied virtually every day, thus growing consumers’ beard up to as much as two-to-four inches, as mentioned at https://ebonyriseformen.com/erlg.

Having joined Russell Brunson’s Inner Circle in 2015, Morrison told Making Headline News during a weekend interview that he deemed it especially necessary to start his own business, in large part because of numerous failed attempts to grow his beard.

“I created (Ebony Rise For Men), because I was unable to grow facial hair and, after becoming bald, I wanted something to keep up with my look,” said Morrison, whose fledging business venture is supported mightily by a gallery of supporters, most notably his wife, Chephon Morrison.

When all else failed, Carlos Morrison acknowledged, it was time he aggressively step out on faith by strategically executing the unlikely trend of, well…stepping out of faith.

Much to his delight, it wasn’t long thereafter that miraculously Morrison came up with a project that, to his credit, is making a strong case to have what this young entrepreneur hopes is a global impact.

It seems he’s well on his way to reaching such a milestone.

“I tried many products, but still struggled with patches and dryness,” Morrison, a licensed CDL Class A truck driver, explained.

Not to be outdone, though, this entrepreneurship guru had gone as far as to implement the essential result, a trend he didn’t shy away from until he reaped the favorable results he so desperately sought.

LET’S RISE UP

“(My products) have been used by individuals across the U.S. and in the Bahamas and Mexico,” Morrison said. “The purpose is to help men feel more confident and to help them take care of their beards the proper way with natural products manufactured in the U.S.”

“I looked up ingredients that would solve issues and formulated an oil with those ingredients that promoted hair growth,” Morrison, a former Marketing student at the University of Illinois at Springfield, recalled.

And the rest, as they say, was history.

When all else failed, Carlos Morrison acknowledged, it was time he aggressively step out on faith by strategically executing the unlikely trend of, well, stepping out of faith.

Fortunately for Morrison, Ebony Rise For Men has been on the rise for three years. And counting.

Interestingly, Morrison’s invention is steadily making its presence felt, particularly outside of the United States.

“(My products) have been used by individuals across the U.S. and in the Bahamas and Mexico,” Morrison said. “The purpose is to help men feel more confident and to help them take care of their beards the proper way with natural products manufactured in the U.S.

“I tried many products, but still struggled with patches and dryness,” Morrison, a licensed CDL Class A truck driver, explained.

“My goal is to inspire men of color who really needed a product designed specifically them that they can have a great routine that produces amazing results.”

To his credit, he’s doing just that, all the while having a constant global impact in the process.

North Carolina author Angel McClain McCaskill embraces her God-mandated vision, courtesy of a new book

September 7, 2019 Andre Johnson Leave a comment

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5 KJV)

GOD’S BELOVED SURVIVOR

**SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST —** Having gotten news of her breast cancer diagnosis in August 2007, Angel McClain McCaskill deemed it necessary to keep a journal throughout her memorable, life-changing journey, a trend that allowed her to recall a slew of things, all while having virtually no indication that God was strategically positioning her to assemble a book entitled, “From A Survivor’s Eye.”

The very moment God had given to Angel McClain McCaskill the vision, she did exactly what He essentially commanded her do.

She steadfastly ran with it.

And, what’s even more astounding is that McCaskill wasn’t merely about to allow her unlikely breast cancer diagnosis to stop her from living her best life.

“God gave me the vision after a powerful forefront women’s conference last July,” McCaskill, during a weekend interview with Making Headline News, said, recalling the remarkably compelling events that have contributed mightily to her endeavor as an accomplished author. “My mentor, Lady Leah McNair, went into prayer with me, and five months later, we had a book.”

And the rest, as they say, was history.

Thanks in large part to McCaskill’s act of obedience unto God, coupled with the fervent prayers of her spiritual leader — as well as other intercessors — God has greatly empowered her to become the mastermind behind the spiritually-empowering book entitled, “From A Survivor’s Eye.”

CONNECT WITH AUTHOR McCASKILL TO BUY HER BOOK: https://www.facebook.com/ammccaskill

An intriguing, life-altering written work that was officially published in January 2019, McCaskill needed somewhere in the neighborhood of just under a half of a year to compose a book that has already begun to generate of array of favorable reviews from her reading audience.

Having fielded news of her breast cancer diagnosis in August 2007, McCaskill deemed it necessary to keep a journal throughout her memorable, life-changing journey, a trend that allowed her to recall a slew of things, all while having virtually no indication that God was strategically positioning her to assemble a book.

Yep. That’s just like God, ushering His children to their destiny, as only He could.

For what it’s worth, McCaskill — who’s “open to speaking engagements and book signings” — considers herself thorough blessed that God had strategically set her aside for His use for such a notable and memorable time as now.

For McCaskill, a native of York, South Carolina who resides in Charlotte, North Carolina, while she’s undoubtedly endured her share of turmoil and hardships through her breast cancer diagnosis, amongst the things about she relishes the most of how God’s continues to provide her a way of escape.

“No matter what you face — it doesn’t have to be breast cancer — God will get you through it,” said McCaskill, explaining the divine message she’s sending to her reading audience through her book. “I promise you. We all have survived something and with the help of the Lord (and) you can too.”

According to detailed synopsis at Amazon.com, McCaskill’s “From A Survivor’s Eye” is what this Christian-based writer describes as a “powerful book” of breast cancer survival.

“Follow the journey of Angel McCaskill, from discovery to healing and wholeness. You are guaranteed to be enlightened and inspired to persevere through any challenge in your life,” said an Amazon spokesperson for this author’s book she’s garnered since her book’s release.

“So many wonderful remarks and positive feedback…from men and women, saying how inspired they are from reading and they are ready for another one,” said McCaskill, adding that she plans to compose a 30-day inspirational journal in the foreseeable future.

For what it’s worth, McCaskill — who’s “open to speaking engagements and book signings” — considers herself thoroughly blessed that God has strategically set her aside for His use for such a notable and memorable time as now.

PROVERBS 31 FACTOR

Thanks in large part to McCaskill’s act of obedience unto God, coupled with the fervent prayers of spiritual leader — as well as other intercessors — God has greatly empowered her to become the mastermind behind the spiritually-empowering book entitled, “From A Survivor’s Eye.”

“It was finished after my treatments, surgery, and recovery,” McCaskill said. “And it wasn’t until I realized that I had a book.”

How remarkably astounding for this devout woman of faith whom, to her credit, wasn’t merely about to allow her dreaded breast cancer diagnosis to stop her from living her best life.

Period.

In that order.

Amen…and Amen.

Houston real estate extraordinaire Jacqueline Briscoe helping home buyers achieve the ‘American Dream’

September 7, 2019 Andre Johnson Leave a comment

NEW IMAGE, BIG DREAMS

**DESTINY STEPS —** For Jacqueline Briscoe, a native of Houston, she has been afforded the golden opportunity of helping homebuyers achieve and savor the America dream for the past decade and-a-half as the catalyst for New Image Realty.

DALLAS — When Jacqueline Briscoe advanced her education at the University of Houston, she deemed it essential to declare Communications as her major.

But amongst the notable factors she had ultimately come to discover was that God had other strategic ideas on her behalf.

For Briscoe, it was an awe-inspiring endeavor, one that eventually had come wrapped up in the unique gift through real estate.

“I have always been a people person and an advocate for the underdog,” Briscoe told Making Headline News this week. “So to help people who never thought they could buy a home walk into their season and get the American dream of home ownership, I am so grateful to be a part of that to make their dreams come true.”

A native of Houston, Briscoe has been afforded the golden opportunity of helping home buyers achieve and savor the “America dream” for the past decade and-a-half as the catalyst for New Image Realty.

Located at 16770 Imperial Valley Drive in the greater Houston metropolitan area, Briscoe has evolved as fixture in what undoubtedly is one of the country’s most competitive professions.

In a nutshell, part of her mission as a thriving real estate profession is routinely going to great lengths to ensure that her clients can appropriately encounter the proverbial unthinkable.

“(I love to) help people who didn’t know it was possible to buy a home,” said Briscoe, introducing her longstanding mission as only she could. “(I love) to show people (that even though) you can be single, you might have always rented before, or you are a newlywed couple or had credit struggles, I can normally help them become homeowners.”

To her credit, her immeasurable track record is such that she’s aided a number home buyers defy arguably the greatest of odds, particularly when pressing and navigating their way through the sometimes dreaded home-buying process.

“We have a program whereby when people are buying a new home, I give back a portion of my commission so when you buy a new home you won’t have a house note for at least two months,” said Briscoe, referring to her company’s ‘First Month On Us’ program.

Interestingly, Briscoe’s keen entrepreneurship reputation is such that she’s become thoroughly committed to showing her clients that she has a heart for people.

“I am with you from start to finish,” Briscoe said. “I have a background as a former loan officer and credit restoration adviser.”

In addition, Briscoe has spent a considerable amount of time, working as a new home consultant for home builders, she acknowledged.

“So I have a full knowledge of the entire realm of the real estate industry,” Briscoe said, adding that her strategic, featured motto is “Walk into your season.”

For what it’s worth, this rising giant in the real estate industry is surely walking in the divine season for which God has created her.

So much for studying Communications at the U of H.

“Let me help you achieve the American Dream through home ownership,” said Briscoe, adding that arguably her greatest inspirations are: Miko Branch, CEO of Miss Jessie’s, and Shannon Battle, Founder and Director of Family Services of America.

ALL AMERICAN REALTOR

**HOLDING IT DOWN —** To her credit, Briscoe’s immeasurable track record is such that she’s aided homebuyers defy arguably the greatest of odds, particularly when pressing and navigating their way through the sometimes dreaded home-buying process.

Much to her delight, Briscoe will make a few public appearances in the foreseeable future, during which she will continue to educate the masses on home buying opportunities.

“Remember, a credit (score) as low as 580 and two months no of house payment,” Briscoe said.

Sounding very much like the authentic real estate professional for which she is widely known.

Rhonda Hodges Ministries to host ‘The Birthing Experience’ conference Sept. 20-21

September 5, 2019 Andre Johnson

Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. (Psalm 46:10 KJV)

SEASON OF THE REBIRTH

**IT’S GONNA BE PHENOMENAL —** Accomplished Mid-South-area Evangelist Rhonda Hodges will host “The Birthing Experience” conference, a two-day event that will place September 20-21 at Grace Life Church, located at 1501 East Moultrie in Blytheville, Arkansas.

DALLAS — Time for yet another rebirth.

“The birthing season is a particular season,” longtime Mid-South-area Evangelist Rhonda Hodges, during an interview this week with Making Headline News, said, introducing her latest kingdom-based endeavor that has come wrapped up in a power-packed assembly. “The enemy knows that God has many gifts and talents for His people, so you have to be careful that you don’t abort your spiritual mission.”

These are amongst a few notable observations Hodges will likely address during her forthcoming “The Birthing Experience” conference, a two-day event that will place September 20-21 at Grace Life Church, located at 1501 East Moultrie in Blytheville, Arkansas.

Powered by Rhonda Hodges Ministries, “The Birthing Experience” will begin daily at 7 p.m. and 10 a.m. CST, respectively.

REGISTER HERE FOR THE BIRTHING EXPERIENCE: http://www.rhondahodges.org/site/cs/staff.asp

Mid-South-area Pastor TeNita Freeman of TeNita Freeman Ministries will be the guest speaker. Fullness Of Joy Ministries will also make a guest appearance.

The registration fee for the conference is $17, which includes a gift and brunch. Registration for “The Birthing Experience” is available at www.rhondahodges.org and the deadline to register is September 19.

According to Hodges, the purpose and mission for this conference is not just for the sole purpose of empowering women from various walks of life.

“I truly desire to see them birth their God-given purpose,” Hodges said.

Accompanied by the featured Biblical passage that is Psalm 46:10, Hodges’ ministry deemed it essential to adopt the theme: “It Is Worth The Push.”

“It’s just to remind the men and women of God that situations may not always cause us to feel good, etc.; it’s going to hurt, and that they may not like you, they may not support you, but you keep pushing, because God has a plan and purpose for your life, for your dreams, for your family,” said Hodges, offering a detailed synopsis of her conference. “Too many times, we give up, but during the birthing process, you have to keep pushing, (because) the end result is a beautiful babe you went through the process to deliver.

“It works the same way in the kingdom of God,” Hodges added. “You just got to keep pushing until you deliver those spiritual gifts and talents.”

A Joiner, Arkansas native who accepted her calling to the ministry in April 2000, Hodges was officially ordained as a licensed minister under the leadership of Pastor Theodis Rucker.

North Carolina-based Bella Hearts, Inc. has become a constant fixture in Greensboro metropolitan area

September 4, 2019 Andre Johnson

LARGER THAN LIFE

Thanks in large part to a resourceful gallery of Greensboro, North Carolina-area businesswomen, Bella Hearts, Incorporated has become a fixture as a rising nonprofit organization.

A credible organization whose vision includes — but isn’t limited to — improving the lives of those affected by heart, kidney, and Alzheimer’s diseases, Bella Hearts has become thoroughly committed to its frequent fundraising, not to mention bringing about vital awareness, particularly by serving as an advocate and educating as a strategic way to identify early detection, as well as better treatments and cures, as told to Making Headline News this week.

“The fundraising services we offer each year include — but not limited to — paint parties, 5K walk and runs, raffles, zumbathons, quarter auctions, and educational workshops,” a Bella Hearts spokesperson told MHN. “The proceeds that we raise are donated to other organizations and foundations of heart, kidney and Alzheimer’s disease and/or recipients of Bella Hearts choosing to assist with any financial and medical needs.”

A credible nonprofit that caters to people of all ages, Bella Hearts is steadily having a monumental impact throughout the Greensboro-metropolitan area.

“The most unique thing about Bella Hearts is that each and every one of us was already being servant leaders prior to the birth of Bella Hearts,” said a spokesperson for the organization. “We each have a long history of serving our communities in one capacity or another.”

The sustained success of this nonprofit was spread-headed largely by what organizers would appropriately label the million dollar question.

“Since we are powerful individuals in our own way, how powerful would we be if we came together?” a Bella Hearts spokesperson said. “Bella Hearts was formed from the many answers to this one question.”

An organization whose mission also includes adding value to the lives of its recipients and other organizations, the faces of Bella Hearts are businesswomen Sherah Lowe, Sherri Palmer, Toni Smith, Amy Cole, Keisha Boatwright and Eraina Tinnin.

Another key factor for the continuous success of Bella Hearts has been the overwhelming community support.

“We are surrounded by so many servant leaders, but the ones who inspired us the most are The Last Dons, a 501c3 nonprofit organization whose focus is on individuals, who have been incarcerated or have criminal records, and are looking to turn their lives around,” a Bella Hearts spokesperson said.

Another valiant supporter of the group is Christen Miller, the CEO of Hope and Vision Outreach, whose purpose is to assist nonprofit business owners with changing their lives through philanthropic vision and action.

On September 14, the organization will host its Second Annual Rockin’ With The Bellas 5K Walk & Run at Fleet Feet in Greensboro.

This event will begin at approximately 7 a.m. EST and the cost is $10 for walkers and $15 for runners.

A portion of the proceeds will be donated to The Kidney Foundation and a Bella Hearts’ recipient, who has been diagnosed with kidney disease.

Officially incorporated in November 2017, Bella Hearts became a full fledge nonprofit organization in October

2018.

New Jersey Pastor Dr. Laura Anderson defies rash of odds en route to accepting her God-mandated calling

September 3, 2019 Andre Johnson

“He who pursues righteousness and love finds life, prosperity and honor.” (Proverbs 21:21)

GOD IS WITH HER

**GOD’S LEADING LADY —** A native of Farmersville, Alabama, Apostle Dr. Laura Anderson, 55, is the Senior Pastor of Emanuel Healing Deliverance Cathedral, her Bayville, New Jersey-area ministry that is located at 91 Atlantic City Boulevard.

During the infancy stages of her teenage life, Apostle Dr. Laura Anderson wouldn’t be what most would describe as a typical teenager.

Consider, for instance, her notable upbringing in the church.

“Received the Holy Ghost and baptism in Jesus Name at the age of 14,” Dr. Anderson, during an interview this week with Making Headline News, said, recalling arguably one of the memorable spiritual moments of her life, during which she had effectively sold out to Almighty God within the walls of Apostolic Fountain Ministry Birthing Church Of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

And the rest, as they say, was history.

Consequently, that Dr. Anderson had deemed it essential to live for Christ, by all accounts, had given way to her spiritual gifts being discovered in ways unimaginable, particularly by her then-Pastor, James Whitmore, who recognized her gift of the prophesy some two years later.

A ministerial tenure that spans nearly four decades, Dr. Anderson became a Prophet in 1980. Her Pastoral tenure commenced in 2000.

“(I was being) used by God mightily at a young age,” said Dr. Anderson, who eventually served in what was known as missionary outreach, all the while exposing her immeasurable talents as a playwright and youth advisor.

Years later, Dr. Anderson began to steadily have a valiant impact in the Body of Christ, a trend that ultimately led to her becoming an ordain elder, as well as what was known as an office prophet, during which she was afforded the golden opportunity to display her administrative skills.

A native of Farmersville, Alabama, Dr. Anderson, 55, is the Senior Pastor of Emanuel Healing Deliverance Cathedral, her Bayville, New Jersey-area ministry that is located at 91 Atlantic City Boulevard.

For Dr. Anderson, her rise to evolving as a fixture in the Body of Christ comes amid a rash of unfavorable circumstances through which she’s managed to persevere and conquer.

“When chosen for the nursing administrative position, pastoral office, because of such negative influences in my life — verbal, sexual, physical and mental abuse of dyslexia and other learning disability — I was a woman who struggled with academic challenges,” Dr. Anderson recalled. “(I was) told I would never be nothing and was tormented by the spirit of apathy and abandonment.”

Still, such turmoil never in any way, shape, or form deterred this devout woman of faith from pressing and navigating toward the purpose for which God created her.

FAITH & FAMILY FOCUS

Having initially began witnessing God set her aside for His use in ministry a little more than two decades ago, Dr. Anderson is a part of a family of resourceful preachers including her husband, Pastor William Anderson, her brother, Mikelin Oliver, her daughter, and her daughters, Prophetess Precious Lester and Elder Takola Gonzalez, both of whom work alongside her in ministry.

If nothing else, she was destined to become an even bigger and better version of herself with God, her Helper, steering the way.

“After embracing my call to the office as a Pastor, I experienced the withdrawal of those I supported and I called family and friends,” Dr. Anderson said. “(It was a) betrayal of covenant, which causes great emotional pain.”

At times, Dr. Anderson explained, such a tear-jerking, seemingly uncontrollable sequence appeared downright discomforting and uncalled for — for the most part.

“Many reneged on their promises, and I found myself in a dessert place alone, rejected, lonely, suspicious of not knowing who I could trust,” Dr. Anderson said. “I began to doubt that God had chosen me to lead His people.”

But what she had ultimately found out was that God’s ways were far more superior to hers — and anybody else’s for that matter.

“When I allow God voice to overpower all of my doubt, torment, shame and false influence, He taught me to trust Him every step of the way,” Dr. Anderson said. “I began to see it wasn’t what others thought about me or even what I thought about myself. I realize God chose and predestined me for the mandate that He put on by life, not man.”

**SHE’S SOLD OUT —** That Dr. Anderson had deemed it essential to live for Christ, by all accounts, had given way to her spiritual gifts being discovered, particularly by her then-Pastor, James Whitmore, who recognized her gift of the prophesy some two after she had become baptized with the precious Holy Ghost.

And the rest, as they say, was history.

Through her immeasurable gifts to the Body of Christ, Dr. Anderson founded Laura Anderson Ministries in 2007, which is widely regarded as an international evangelist ministry, of sorts.

Nearly a decade later, she was officially installed as Senior Pastor of Emmanuel Healing Deliverance Cathedral, a milestones that has greatly enabled her to execute Doctrines Of Divinity, all the while assuming the illustrious offices of Epistle Bishop and Affirm Apostle.

HE WAS THERE ALL THE TIME — For Dr. Anderson, her rise to evolving as a fixture in the Body of Christ comes amid a rash of unfavorable circumstance through which she’s managed to persevere and conquer.

“I continue to soar, knowing God does not call the qualified; He qualifies the called,” said Dr. Anderson, who interestingly survived — and “defeated” — a premature death 1986 amid a battle with depression. “I’m glad I responded to the call. Yes, I believe He called and chose me with all of my imperfects to make perfect (His will.)”

For nearly 40 years — and counting.

North Carolina author Keisha Boatwright inherits beauty for ashes through two compelling books

September 1, 2019 Andre Johnson

And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. (Galatians 6:9 ESV)

BEAUTY FOR ASHES

**TALE OF TWO SEASONS —** A native of Newark, New Jersey Keisha Boatwright has contributed mightily to the spiritually-empowering, awe-inspiring book entitled, “Unleashed Travails: From Pain to Purpose.”

Though she unfortunately had hit a rough spot in her life, Keisha Boatwright was determined not to give up.

Not with so much living well ahead of her.

Consider, for instance, how Boatwright, a Greensboro, North Carolina-area businesswoman, had gone about assessing the remarkably compelling above double image in this very news story.

“It represents how I was fighting an emotional battle and when I made it through how my confidence growth,” Boatwright told Making Headline News during a weekend interview.

A book that is comprised of 70 pages in length, “Unleashed Travails: From Pain to Purpose” is a collaborative written work that was assembled by four authors.

For Boatwright, amongst the notable factors on which she can appropriately hang her hat is the fact that it was due in large part to her turbulent season in the wilderness that God had, in turn, bestowed upon her a wealth of confidence as a result.

So much, in fact that this beloved Navy veteran deemed it essential to find her niche in the ever-so-competitive world of authorship.

A book that is comprised of 70 pages in length, “Unleashed Travails: From Pain to Purpose” is a collaborative written work that was assembled by four authors.

For Boatwright, her valiant contributions to her latest endeavor comes amid a rash of hardships and unfavorable circumstances, past memories that, because of her having steadfastly exemplified some bend-but-don’t-break faith, has ultimately thrust her to a much-anticipated harvest season.

“(God gave me the vision to write this book) when I became an empty nester,” Boatwright said. “It was part of my healing process.”

A 14-year Navy veteran, Boatwright is a certified Yoga instructor (RY-200hr) and is a member of the Bella Hearts nonprofit organization.

A book that made its official debut on the market on September 10, 2018, “Unleashed Travails: From Pain to Purpose” represents a compilation of some of the trials and tribulations, many of which have occurred within the individual lives of four women, as mentioned in a detailed introduction at Amazon.com.

“It is their hope that somewhere in these pages, you will find the courage and inspiration to move beyond your pain to your purpose, knowing that after experiencing unplanned and life-changing circumstances — your ‘Unleashed Travails’ has made you a survivor,” said an Amazon spokesperson for this book.

Without question, Boatwright can greatly attest to the notion of what it means to transcend from a season in the dreaded wilderness to a season in which God has ceremoniously made her a survivor.

“(This book is a reminder of how I must) remain true to myself,” said Boatwright, explaining how ‘Unleashed Travails: From Pain to Purpose’ is synonymous to the purpose for which God has created her.

SEASON OF THE REBIRTH

For Boatwright, her valiant contributions to her latest endeavor comes amid a rash of hardships and unfavorable circumstances, a past memory that, because of her having steadfastly exemplified some bend-but-don’t-break faith, has ultimately thrust her to a much-anticipated harvest season.

Besides “Unleashed Travails: From Pain to Purpose,” Boatwright also played a major role in “The Purposed Woman 365 Day Devotional,” a collaborative Amazon bestseller that made its official release earlier this year.

Not to be outdone, she announced the forthcoming release of her solo-authored project entitled, “Picking Up The Broken Pieces,” which is scheduled to debut by the end of the year, or “in my time for my birthday (December 5),” she said.

A 14-year Navy veteran, Boatwright is a certified Yoga instructor (RY-200hr) and is a member of the Bella Hearts nonprofit organization.

On September 14, she will be afforded the golden opportunity to promote her books when she participates in the Rockin With The Bellas 5K Run & Walk.

Later that day, she will make an appearance at a Greensboro-area yoga event entitled, “Pain to Purpose.”
