But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” (Matthew 19:26/NIV)
GOD-ORDERED STEPS
DALLAS — If ya didn’t know, now ya know.
For what it’s worth, that is the forthright message faith-based author Charity Anderson is aiming to send to her reading audience since the ceremonious release of They Just Don’t Know: A Memoir By Charity Anderson, her highly-anticipated book that debuted in Spring 2025.
As part of Making Headline News’ advance national coverage ahead of Sarah Jakes Roberts’ Third Annual Woman Evolve Conference July 31 through August 2 from Atlanta, Georgia, Anderson, a Longview, Texas-based first-time published author, admitted that amid a rash of obstacles she endured surrounding the production of her new book, God would ultimately provide her with the strength she needed to assemble a reading gem that, much to her delight, is as good as advertised.
“I actually started to write a different book, but it was too much of a struggle at that time,” Anderson told MHN. “Then God dropped the title, They Just Don’t Know, in my spirit as a prelude to the story behind my praise.”

A riveting, informative read that is accompanied by 110 pages, Anderson’s They Just Don’t Know vividly enlightens her readers that addiction can be a prison with invisible bars — a cage that traps the mind, body, and soul in endless cycles of despair, according to a detailed synopsis of this writer’s book via Amazon.com.
“For years, I lived as both prisoner and guard, convinced there was no way out,” Anderson writes via Amazon.com. “They Just Don’t Know is the story of my journey from that dark place, where my life was defined by desperation and dependency, to the light and freedom of salvation that I had once believed was beyond my reach.
“This book is not only an account of my struggle with addiction but also a testament to the power of grace and the undeniable hand of God at work in even the bleakest circumstances.”

In essence, Anderson doesn’t shy away from the notion that she composed They Just Don’t Know in large part for those who feel lost, not to mention for families who don’t understand what their loved ones are going through, thus for anyone who has struggled with pain, addiction, or feeling unworthy.
“It is a story about the battle for my soul, one fought on the bathroom floors of gas stations, in lonely rooms, and under the weight of unbearable shame,” Anderson says via Amazon.com. “Yet, it’s also a story of hope-how I found strength in weakness, faith in brokenness and, ultimately, salvation, where I least expected it. My hope is that, by sharing my story, you might discover that no matter how far you feel you’ve fallen, there is a path to redemption and a purpose waiting on the other side of your pain.”
To her credit, Anderson began constructing They Just Don’t Know in October 2024, a project that took approximately five months to complete, an adventure that, by all accounts, was time well invested, she acknowledged.
“Through God, all things are possible,” said Anderson, explaining the divine message behind her new book. “He restores life, heals brokenness, renews minds, and preserves purpose removing the residue of your past.”
Much to her delight, Anderson has fielded an assortment of rave reviews since the release of her book.
“It has been said that the book is raw, real, and insightful,” Anderson said. “A look into the life of a female addict and the transformative power of a God Who looks past our right now and sees His purpose, His redemptive power, and His unconditional love.”
SET ASIDE FOR GOD’S USE
A native of Columbus, Georgia, Anderson this week announced that her sophomore book is currently in the works.
“My next book, The Travailing Mind, is underway as we speak,” Anderson said. “It exposes the works of the enemy that invades our mind corrupting our thinking processes while tormenting our emotions and behaviors.”
AND IT CAME TO PASS
Anderson’s rise to emerge as a first-time author comes amid humble beginnings.
“I was in active addiction for 15 years, went to prison for 26 months,” Anderson told MHN. “As a convicted felon in two states, God has opened doors for me to obtain 2 state licenses as a licensed professional counselor and a licensed chemical dependency counselor. I just celebrated 18 years delivered on April 27, 2025.”
