BISHOP T.D. JAKES’ INTERNATIONAL LEADERSHIP SUMMIT ADVANCE COVERAGE: Florida philanthropist Precious Swain-Peaks consults God through ‘much prayer,’ spearheads a life-altering anthology
Andre Johnson 
I have seen something else under the sun: The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned. But time and chance happen to them all. (Ecclesiastes 9:11 NIV)
GOD RESTORES
Even when her faith was bleak and she seemed on the brink of falling on shaky ground, there was Precious Swain-Peaks, diligently finding the strength to trust the process.
Amongst the biggest reasons is Swain-Peaks is thoroughly persuaded that if God has previously provided for her a way of escape, He’s faithful and just to do it again.
And again.
And again.
And again…
“In December of 2022 after much prayer, I heard some never are fully restored because they shut down during the process,” Swain-Peaks, during a weekend interview with Making Headline News, said, recalling the memorable, life-altering developments surrounding her latest book project. “But the process is necessary for growth. Tell your story but be welcoming to others sharing also. Sharing is also part of the healing process.”
Indeed, it is, as Swain-Peaks and a gallery of Christian-based writers can greatly attest.

Swain-Peaks is the Visionary Author of My Journey Down The Road To Restoration, her highly-anticipated anthology that made its ceremonious debut in April 2023.
A spiritually-equipping book that is comprised of seven co-authors, Swain-Peaks’ My Journey Down The Road To Restoration, by all accounts, is an intriguing collaborative written work, one that is centered in large on one’s keen ability to press and navigate through the turbulence life often deals us.
“Life…day-to-day, we travel through life. Some days are good, some bad, and some change the entire direction that you thought you were heading in,” said a spokesperson for Swain-Peaks’ My Journey Down The Road To Restoration via Amazon.com. “Some things start out really well and then the bottom falls out. The loss from these types of events is devastating, and the human mind thinks that life is over. But when you have lost what you thought was everything, the Most High takes into a journey into the walk to restoral. During this walk, a few more things may fall away. But during the process, the things that come are better than before, and you begin to gain balance and fluency. Your purpose becomes clear. Walk with us through our journey.”
AS GOOD AS ADVERTISED
An informative collections of testimonies Swain-Peaks and her co-authors began composing in January and needed somewhere in the neighborhood of four months to complete, this Ocala, Florida-based Visionary Author said her inspiration for hosting her newly-produced anthology comes amid her reverence and honor to God Almighty.
“(I spearheaded this anthology) to give honor to the Most High for the restoration of me,” Swain-Peaks said as part of Making Headline News’ advance coverage of Bishop T. D. Jakes’ International Leadership Summit May 4-6 in Orlando. “(This book is purposed to) to give testimonies so that others realize that the Creator is real, He hasn’t forgotten us, and will deliver us if we allow it.”
As for the divine message she and her fellow co-authors collectively aspire to send to their reading audience, Swain-Peaks emphasized:
“We are quick to blame the Father for the things that go wrong, feeling that despite His word, He has abandoned us, left us to be hurt, forgetting that our free will normally is to blame, the decisions we made despite the warnings, the mindset we have that we can fix it that keeps us from walking through the way of escape that was provided — even the generational curse that left us to carry the weight of a familiar mistake. But through it all, the Most High is kind. When we listen, He brings us through the process and restores us mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.”
In many cases, that sometimes dreaded and stormy process is not always easy, Swain-Peaks cautions.
THUS SAID THE LORD
“There may be loneliness, which hurts,” Swain-Peaks said. “But in essence, it forces us to look at ourselves, heal, and learn to love ourselves again while protecting others because it is true that hurt people, hurt people. There may be a rebuilding process, which happens when ties are broken. Sometimes in our blindness, we don’t realize the ties are the problem.”
Days removed witnessing the ceremonious release of My Journey Down The Road To Restoration, Swain-Peaks and her supporting authors have garnered a rash of rave reviews.
“So far there has been excitement,” she told MHN.
