In life, we all face transitional periods. These changes can invoke a range of emotions, from excitement to stress and depression. But, quite often, how we respond to these moments impacts our outlook on life and our relationship with God and the people around us.
Through rejection, loss, assault, and life-long family secrets, Patricia Bell found a way through prayer and faith in God to thrive despite her devastation. If you are in a place where things don’t make sense and the light of hope is dim, this book is for you. Thriving Through Life’s Transitions is not just a reflection of Patricia Bell’s life. It’s also a message of perseverance, faith, and encouragement for those who have experienced what felt like more than their share of life’s twists and turns.

I Am Abraham is the story of Abraham L. Henderson, who was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to gospel singer William Henderson and his wife, Dorothy Henderson.

However, when a fight lands him in juvenile jail indefinitely, Abraham is left to re-think his choices and path for life.
After finding favor with the parole board and winning his freedom, Abraham is given another chance at life. But the new lease only led him back to a long-term stint in street life. As Abraham rolls into adulthood, he finds himself caught between the life he has known as a drug dealer and the constant call of God on his life. The struggle becomes even more real after one sample of the hottest new drug becomes his new addiction. With his marriage, family, and life now turned upside down, Abraham is left to contend for his faith, life, and redemption.
