And You Call Yourself A Christian

shelialipsey — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 01:58:01 +0000

Out of all the divas at New Day Temple of Faith, Unique has to be the most colorful one–she and her mother Lorain, that is. Never one to hold her tongue in the name of keepin’ it real, it’s no surprise that Unique has not been saved all her life. It’s safe to say that Lorain wasn’t born on the church pew either. Let the church folk tell it, the apple hasn’t fallen too far from the tree when it comes to Unique.

Lorain–once known as the tight skirt, V-neck blouse, too much makeup-wearing leader of the New Day Singles Ministry–claims she’s there to look out for her daughter and try to keep her in check. But how in the world does Lorain think she can even begin to keep her daughter on the straight and narrow with her own crooked life?

Some might say Lorain has failed miserably as a mother when Unique ends up in jail for three counts of murder. One who would agree is the woman who raised Unique while Lorain was out living her life freely. As an all-out war takes place between Unique’s birth mother and the woman who raised her, will Unique have any support while she fights for her life behind bars? Will all forsake her while they are too busy with their own agendas? Only God holds the answer to this one.

I want to start off by giving Him all the praise, glory and honor that is due to Him for the great authors representing the Urban Christian Authors line.

I am especially grateful that He has allowed each one of us to remain here so that we can continue to do what He has designed us to do.

To our Readers, I pray that you will have the best year yet. I pray for God’s favor and blessing over your lives and the lives of your loved ones. I pray that the desires of your heart will be fulfilled, and that you will experience all that God has ready to give you. Readers, you are the ones who help make what I call our ‘literary ministry’ the success that it is. God has indeed shown favor over us. It is evident in your comments, your purchases, and your reviews. So, thank you, thank you, thank you!
