| “This was a book that I did not want to put down. I wanted to see how God would take this life and propel it into worldwide ministry. Step by step, Richard Young guides us through the traumas that prepared Joyce Meyer for ministry. It was encouraging to recognize the issues that she struggled with, and then to rejoice in God’s ability to bring healing, forgiveness, and restoration. I came away with a greater appreciation for Joyce’s ministry, and for her as a person. I highly recommend this book.” —Bishop Charles Womack Harvest Conference, International Pentecostal Harvest Church |
