SARAH JAKES ROBERTS’ 2026 WOMAN EVOLVE CONFERENCE ADVANCE NATIONAL COVERAGE: Atlanta’s Brenda Sharpe’s long-awaited dream as author becomes a reality
Andre Johnson 
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight. (Proverbs 3:5-6/NIV)
VISION FOCUSED
After years upon years of constant procrastination, Brenda Sharpe had finally arrived at a point during her faith walk where she wasn’t merely concerned about the viewpoints of others.
Rather, she arrived at a point where only what God says about her through His word matters the most.
And so it ultimately came to pass, Sharpe’s long-awaited dream as a first-time published author by way of Everybody Has A Story And Every Body Has A Story Anthology: Where Every Voice Matters And Every Body Has A Story Worth Sharing, a life-altering, fascinating read that is powered by Dr. LaQuita Park’s Atlanta-based Pa-Pro-Vi Publishing.
“God gave me the vision years ago, but I was too afraid to write about myself and thought no one would be interested,” Sharpe told Making Headline News during a recent interview as part of its advance national coverage ahead of Sarah Jakes Roberts’ Fourth Annual Woman Evolve Conference July 30 through August 1 from Atlanta. “I kept putting it off until finally I had no other choice other than to give a brief summarization of my life.”

An anthology that made its ceremonious debut in Spring 2026, Has A Story And Every Body Has A Story Anthology: Where Every Voice Matters And Every Body Has A Story Worth Sharing is comprised of 20 co-authors, each of whom vividly enlightens readers that such collaborative project is more than an anthology.
“It is a powerful collection of raw, honest, and deeply human stories from courageous individuals who chose to turn pain into purpose, wounds into wisdom, and life experiences into testimony,” said an Amazon spokesperson for the newly-release anthology. “Within these pages, you will meet men and women from different walks of life, backgrounds, body types, and life experiences who bravely share their journeys of resilience, healing, faith, transformation, identity, loss, triumph, and self-discovery.”
Moreover, organizers of Has A Story And Every Body Has A Story Anthology: Where Every Voice Matters And Every Body Has A Story Worth Sharing offered the following thought-provoking suggestions:
“Some stories will make you cry. Some will make you reflect. Some will inspire you to keep going. And some may feel like your own.”

Also, “This compelling anthology reminds us that while our stories may look different on the surface, our humanity connects us in ways we often do not realize,” an Amazon spokesperson said. “We are all connected by lived experiences, challenges, hope, and the universal desire to be seen, heard, and understood.”
Sharpe’s rise to become a first-time author comes amid humble beginnings.
“With God, there is no wrong way or wrong decision…it’s all about trusting in His way and His will,” said Sharpe, explaining when she felt greatly inspired to contribute to the anthology.
Sharpe’s featured chapter in Has A Story And Every Body Has A Story Anthology: Where Every Voice Matters And Every Body Has A Story Worth Sharing is entitled, Not Just Another Statistic.
“I started writing out timelines about five years ago but I finished what I wanted to say about eight months ago,” Sharpe told MHN.
BASKING IN GOD’S GLORY
As for the divine message she aspires to send to her audience through the anthology, Sharpe said:
“Don’t give up no matter what. God (has got you covered) and if He hasn’t given up on you why would you give up on yourself? (Through this authorship adventure, I’ve gained) strength and stability. I am stronger than I thought and I have given not only myself stability, but my family also. I try to be a steward of God’s to any and all people that I encounter on this new path and journey He has me traveling.”
