JOURNEY OF FAITH, CHALLENGES, AND COURAGE: LOCAL AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT


FORMER NBA PLAYER, ARMON “HAMMER” GILLIAM’S MOTHER’S TESTIMONY OF GOD’S LOVE AND FAITHFULNESS

We may not always understand the plan or will of God and what He allows in our lives; however, there is hope on the other side of every trial life has to offer! "Journey of Faith, Challenges, and Courage" is the testimony of how one's character can be shaped through life events - good or bad. The voice of this beautiful matriarch, Alma Gilliam, exudes warmth, faith, strength, and courage through every page as she chronicles some of the most impactful life events she has endured. As she shares her testimony of triumph over racism, loss, and unfathomable pain, you will cry, you will laugh, you will rejoice, but most importantly you will be inspired to believe that God's hand will carry you through any life challenge if you just choose faith!

Purchase "Journey of Faith, Challenges, and Courage".
