Tiffany, describe yourself for our visitors.
I’m a wife and mother of five. I love worship music like Martha Munizzi, Fred Hammond and Kirk Franklin. I also enjoy praise dancing and drama to the glory of God.
How do you find time to connect with God?
It can be hard when most of the time it seems like I hit the ground running everyday, but I make sure to listen to an inspirational word in the morning (Bishop T.D. Jakes or Pastor Paula White) and during the children’s naptime I just turn on my gospel music and reflect on the character of God. When I’m working on a novel I make an extra effort to read and study my Bible at least three times a week, because I want my writing to be in line with the Word of God.

Dr. West, describe yourself for our visitors.
I am definitely an extrovert. I love people, talking and sharing a Word from the Lord. I enjoy reading and prefer biographies, as I love to see how God has worked in peoples’ lives. I love gospel and praise songs, especially Yolanda Adams and CeCe Winans. I minister to my family and friends by my actions and try to save the preaching for the pulpit. I thoroughly enjoy ministering at prisons and nursing homes. I fellowship at the Shaw AFB, Chapel; I am president of the women’s ministry and a lay leader for the Inspirational Gospel Service.

Cheryl, describe yourself for our visitors.
I am a rather busy yet not consumed home schooling mother of three. I have also written and self published time management and organizing books. I speak regularly at churches, women retreats and organizations on issues of time management and spiritual growth. I also assist my husband in his ministry to families (www.FamilySuccess.org) in crisis and we regularly do parenting, marriage and family workshops.
In my spare time I enjoy reading, spending time with my husband and kids and doing anything but writing. I enjoy various genres but especially like books whether fiction or nonfiction that inspire me to grow and change or provide me with insights. Everyday, I strive to be more like Jesus than the day before and enjoy doing anything that aids me in that process.

Sheila, describe yourself for our visitors.
“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” This is one of my favorite passages of scripture, Jeremiah 29:11. I hope this scripture alone gives you some insight as to who I am and the purpose for my life.
I am actually a “people” person though I do enjoy my solitude as well. Writing and speaking are definitely gifts that I know have been given to me by God. I love doing both of them. I am the proud, single parent of two adult sons and I have three grandsons. My mother is my staunchest supporter and I love her dearly. I come from a strong family structure and am extremely close to my three older siblings. READ MORE
