Standing in the Presence of Greatness: Discover Seven Real Life Accounts of Greatness Along My Journey Thus Far
Contributor(s): Kohout, David (Author); Palumbo, Kathleen (Author)
Annotation: Do you know how much greatness is within you? Do you find yourself questioning your purpose? Wondering what your gifts are? Do you know that illness, injury, job loss, and countless other situations we see as a crisis may in reality be a doorway to something greater than we can imagine? Do you trust that that could be? David Kohout’s journey began with him chock full of questions and oblivious to the seeds of greatness that he held; reaching a point of desperation, and struggling with the answers along the way. Within the pages of Standing In the Presence of Greatness, David Kohout along with Kathy Palumbo takes you on a colorful walk through some of those very real moments as only someone who has experienced them can, and shows you just how he reached the other end of the tunnel where the light shone brightly enough to spotlight the greatness within him. Just as when he welcomes those to whom he speaks with a peek into his life, both past and present, he invites you to step inside his story and within these seven thoughtful chapters, you will want to begin the search for greatness within yourself.
Hell Bent, Heaven Bound: One Woman’s Journey from the Drug House to the King’s House
Imprint: Morgan James Faith
Contributor(s): Pulliam, Shawnta’
Annotation: Growing up in a neighborhood where crack cocaine and prostitution coexisted alongside a gospel-preaching old woman named Sister Lou, Shawnta Pulliam saw the futility of life around her in the “hood,” yet knew deep inside she was born for something more–something great even. Still, with a drug-addicted mother and a father behind bars, the pull of the streets and deep emotional wounding took their toll, and she easily fell in with a crowd hurtling headlong in the wrong direction. A nervous breakdown that led to her breakthrough revived Shawnta’s faith and stirred up the gifts God had planted in her long ago. Propelled by that faith, she watched as God opened door after door for her to walk through. Following her heart-cry, she eventually founded an organization called Nurturing Hearts for at-risk girls ages ten to eighteen. In Hell Bent, Heaven Bound, she reminds us all that God uses the things we like least about ourselves–and breathes purpose into them.
