Beyond Excited for my new book release soon!

A sneak preview of the

table of contents of my new book titled "Own Your Story Before Your Story Owns You.

This book we be available on e-books. The book has 51 pull quotes. There is a bible study guide at the end of each chapter making it useful for a group bible study or a personal bible study. It has the endorsement of three pastor friends as well as the FOREWARD written by Bruce Thomas.

When the book is available it will be listed on Amazon, Barnes & Noble plus many other book outlets. It will be available to purchase on my website in a few weeks at heartburncafe.net

I will have copies and the book can be purchased through personal contact with me.

The book is broken down into 4 parts: Brokenness, Transformation, Transparency and Abundant life. There are three chapters with each part.

Look the contents over and see if there might be something in this book that would draw your attention. Maybe one chapter title might be of an interest to you.

I've asked God to use the book in changing lives. That is the one and only reason I have spent hours in writing this book.
