Soul Talk: Twenty Soul-Stirring Stories of Women Who Let Go and Let God
Selected and introduced by award-winning motivational speaker Cheryl Polote-Williamson, the twenty women in this bold and holy anthology are living testaments to the glory that God’s will, purpose, and plan will bring transformation to your life, if only you would let go and let God.
In each chapter of Soul Talk, the authors share their unique story, along with scriptures and reflections that will teach women how to develop trust, surrender and communicate with God. Most, if not all, of these authors are flawed and imperfect, having suffered through sexual and domestic abuse, toxic relationships, financial strife, loss of a loved one, and other adversities that are no strangers to many of us. Still, no matter how far they strayed from faith or how overwhelming their circumstances, these stories share one truth: In God, there is always restoration and a life renewed.
Soul Bearer: 9 Soul-Hearted Conversations from Men Sharing Their Unspoken Truths
In yet another bold anthology, bestselling author and compiler Cheryl Polote-Williamson brings us the Godly and redemptive testimonies of nine men who, having overcome their own trials, now share their valuable lessons with you. These pages offer a rarity that is often neglected by society: A safe and welcoming space where men can openly express their emotions, share their fears and failures, and join hands with other men in celebrating God’s purpose for them, all without judgment or ridicule. Topics here are varied and relatable, discussing experiences that are both common and rare, from sports careers and military life to family and health.
Soul Bearer, being not only a book of personal essays but one of encouragement and faith, invites men everywhere to hide their pain or concerns no longer and to allow others to grow from their journeys. Furthermore, it asks all readers to lend your ear to those who speak, to always listen, embrace, and honor every story, no matter whom they may be from.
Affirmed: 365 Days of Positive Thoughts and Actions to Start Your Day by Cheryl Polote-Williamson
Affirmed is a yearlong journey with positive words, thoughts and sayings for each day of this year. God has blessed me with the opportunity to meet and speak to hundreds of people in doing my coaching calls, public speaking engagements and networking events. One of the most common themes that I hear about in coaching and mentoring others is a lack of self-esteem specifically dealing with negative thoughts. I began to pray for the people who told me their stories of poor self-image and lack of confidence. As I prayed, God began to give me positive words to speak to others. He gave me, Affirmed. God wants you to know that he loves you. He thinks the world of you. So much that he gave his only begotten son for you. John 3:16 says “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
