The Scandolous Truth
Selling My Soul by Sherri Lewis examines what people value most, what makes them feel loved, cared for, comforted and comfortable, and the depths they will go through to keep, have and protect these things. Ms. Lewis begins the story with the main character, Trina Michaels, discovering how it feels to re-enter, or become reacclimated, with American society after having returned from a mission trip in Mozambique. As the story unravels, Trina realizes just how different the two worlds and cultures are, from day to day things such as driving, hygiene and food and water intake, to spiritual values. Readers will definitely examine the little things most take for granted.
INTERVIEW | Stephanie L. McKenny
Stephanie, describe yourself for our visitors
I am a Christian woman who happens to be a minister of the gospel, pastor’s wife, mother, grandmother, student and an author all wrapped up in one. Whew! I didn’t realize I wear that many hats! I have always had a love for books and I have being writing on and off since I was a young girl.
How do you find time to connect with God?
Usually my time with God is late at night while everyone else is asleep. I’m really not an early riser, but I’m usually on the night watch.
INTERVIEW | Rodney Winters
Rodney, describe yourself for our visitors.
I am a father of two. I have a passion for teaching and preaching, and a burden for seeing hurting people made whole. I am a laid-back person who enjoys listening to gospel music. I stay busy with family, ministry, teaching at the college level, and entrepreneurial endeavors.
How do you find time to connect with God?
I have to make time to connect with God. Otherwise, I would never find time. I have a hectic daily schedule, so it’s important to prioritize time with God. I’m currently reading through the Bible again this year, although I admit I am behind schedule.
