Author Kimberly Hayslip’s newly released “Crowned with Identity” is a powerful discussion of identity and God’s role in who we are to become


News Image

“Crowned with Identity”: an encouraging opportunity for personal growth. “Crowned with Identity” is the creation of published author, Kimberly Hayslip, a loving mother of four who was born in New Hampshire and currently resides in Ohio.

Hayslip shares, “What if I told you the decision for your existence did not come from your parents. What if I told you, you are more than a man-made idea, that your existence isn’t about existence at all. You were not put here to merely exist. What if I told you, you were planned before the creation of the world you now live in. That you were made to live an abundant world, changing life and you were made in the image of God Almighty himself. That He alone breathed into you so that you could live and change the world.

“He gave you His identity in your mind, in your emotions, and in your body. Your creator is not your parents; therefore, your identity cannot come from them. You have an individual identity that was knit together before creation. God fashioned you to be a specific person who could never be duplicated. You are one of a kind, and you cannot be copied.

“You were created with a purpose, for a purpose. In the pages of this book, I will walk you through the identity process. God needs you; He needs all of you. Every piece of your identity needs to be fluently working so you can fulfill your destiny and purpose so you can start winning victories over the battles you’ve been fighting for far too long, so addictions and generational curses can break, so your children can rise up with the identity in Christ that is on you! It all starts with your true identity!

“Jesus gave us a beautiful exchange—our crown of thorns for HIS crown of royalty. Yes, you are literally wrapped in royalty and righteousness. God wants to walk it out with you. He desperately wants to show you who you are.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Kimberly Hayslip’s new book is a spiritual discussion of what our purpose is.

Hayslip writes in hopes of encouraging others to walk in their faith and accept their identity in Christ.

Volume One” is a powerful workbook for those who seek to overcome abuse


News Image

“Prevail: The Healing Journey Begins: Volume One”: a valuable series of exercises for those working to heal. “Prevail: The Healing Journey Begins: Volume One” is the creation of published author Janette Sams Gleaton, an advocate for those suffering from abuse who has developed Prevail: Abuse Recovery Ministry for Denton Bible Church in Denton, Texas. The author and her late husband, Robert, have four children, two informally adopted daughters, sixteen grandchildren, and twenty-two great-grandchildren.

Gleaton shares, “When experiencing abuse the victim’s whole world seems to collapse— and time stands still! Victims did not expect hostile treatment; the trauma of abuse leaves them in a state of shock, guilt, and shame. They are trapped in a world not of their choosing. The hard issues of life are often unbearable and seen as being impossible to overcome. This defeated mentality becomes normal because victims have come to believe the lies or negative ideas and thoughts which were planted by their abusers. Victims cannot see God and spiritual truths correctly because they put the face of their abuser on the face of God. As wounded people they must find a safe place or source where they can heal emotionally and spiritually.

“Prevail: The Healing Journey Begins identifies abuse, addresses the various issues of abuse, and guides victims to the source of truth as found in Scripture. This healing journey encourages victims to go to the source of truth—God’s Word.

“‘May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you will abound in hope and overflow with confidence in His promises.’ (Romans 15:13, AMP)”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Janette Sams Gleaton’s new book is a comprehensive approach to examining abuse and learning how to successfully cope.

With a long-standing vocation in counseling through ministry, Gleaton hopes to encourage those who have suffered any level of abuse to overcome the negative and move forward with faith.

CNN’s Don Lemon to moderate panel on C.T. Vivian’s posthumous memoir on June 10


CT Vivian was called, “the greatest preacher who ever lived,” by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., shares a lifetime of acquired wisdom in this posthumous memoir, It’s in the Action: Memories of a Nonviolent Warrior.

The Alliance for Christian Media, producer of the Day1 radio and podcast program, will host a virtual event with noted panelists focusing on Dr. C. T. Vivian’s memoir, It’s in the Action: Memories of a Nonviolent Warrior, released in March. The Zoom webinar will be Thursday, June 10, at 7:00 p.m. EDT.

The lively conversation will be moderated by CNN’s Don Lemon and feature the book’s co-author Steve Fiffer, who worked with C.T. Vivian in the last years of his life to create the book. Also participating will be C.T. Vivian’s son Al Vivian, Dr. Bernice King, and Ambassador Andrew Young. Registration for the free virtual event can be made through the Day1.org website or for a contribution of $50, the registration will also include a copy of the book that will be mailed following the event.

According to Peter Wallace, The Alliance executive director, “We could not be more thrilled about having Don Lemon moderate this event. He has a unique ability to facilitate important conversations among today’s brightest minds. We have no doubt he will be able to add an important voice to Vivian’s legacy of social activism. It is crucial that we continue having these conversations in the wake of alleged voter suppression and racial violence happening in our country today.” Wallace continued, “As a preaching-focused ministry, we are thrilled to celebrate this great icon of the civil rights movement, who also was an extremely powerful preacher.

Vivian studied and taught at American Baptist Theological Seminary (now American Baptist College). Vivian was known as a man of words, a powerful, charismatic speaker, whose life and devotion to Christianity were widely recognized. We will explore his life and purpose as it applies to our beliefs and as we seek ways to faithfully address social justice in our world today.’’

Vivian, who died in Atlanta on July 17, 2020 at age 95, will be remembered fondly by those who knew him and those who are still discovering his lifelong dedication to civil rights. Vivian worked and lived in Atlanta for almost 50 years, and through the dedication of his daughter, Denise Morse, thousands of Atlantans have learned about his influence on this city.

Now the book will share his story with others across our country who will also learn from his journey and his legacy. Vivian’s influence is the real touchstone, whether it be his fundraising during Hurricane Katrina, his campaign for Morris Brown College, his historical work with the SCLC, or his founding of BASIC and a leadership institute.

If it involved faith and love in Atlanta, C.T. Vivian was likely there. And now we have his full story, in his own words. The reverend, called, “the greatest preacher who ever lived,” by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., shares a lifetime of acquired wisdom in this posthumous memoir, It’s in the Action: Memories of a Nonviolent Warrior.

Born in Missouri in 1924, Vivian led a life that took him to Peoria, Nashville, Chattanooga, Birmingham, St. Augustine, Selma, Chicago, and Atlanta, as well as over 40 countries. To our everlasting benefit, his focus was always on God, education, justice, love, and freedom. Ambassador Andrew Young, who provides the foreword to the memoir, says, “We’re blessed to have It’s in the Action—which while certainly chronicling C.T.’s actions in the movement also offers his thoughts on those actions.”

Before receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2013, C.T. Vivian worked alongside and offered counsel to the most significant figures. A contemporary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and teacher of John Lewis, he founded and directed multiple organizations, creating contributions and waves that we’re still experiencing today.

The text, co-written with Steve Fiffer and published by NewSouth Books of Montgomery, AL, recalls much of his life of faith and nonviolence. Steve Fiffer is an author, community activist, and co-author of Jimmie Lee and James: Two Lives, Two Deaths, and the Movement that Changed America, a Harlem Book Fair nonfiction finalist. He currently serves on the advisory board of the Civic Leadership Foundation in Chicago, a nonprofit that serves underprivileged youth.

“Day 1” with host Peter Wallace has been broadcast every week for 76 years, formerly as “The Protestant Hour.” Featuring outstanding preachers from the mainline denominations, “Day 1” is currently distributed to more than 200 radio stations across America and overseas, including WSB 95.5 FM and AM 750 in Atlanta Sundays at 7 a.m. The program is produced by the Alliance for Christian Media, based in Atlanta.
