Story Behind The Book

When I first started writing "3 Strikes" back in 2002, I originally deemed it my 'vent-stration' book, meaning I wanted to vent my frustrations to the world about how the world's view of me affected the way I viewed myself and the way I lived. I was only 23 years old then and didn't understand how to take control of my own life without living under the world's constraints. I blamed the world for my pain and at times, I blamed God for allowing it to happen. Over time, as I matured, not just mentally but spiritually, my views about myself changed. Emotionally, I was still stagnant but I knew those walls would eventually breakdown once I got the others under control. Now, ten years later, I am stronger and most confident in who I am. It took a lot of sacrifice to get here; letting go of self, giving up to God. I am not frustrated or bitter anymore. I have forgiven myself and those who hurt me because my steps were indeed ordered by God. Just as Joseph's life looked bleak in the beginning, I too sit among royalty in the latter stages of my life. Genesis 50: 20 (NLT) says, "You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good. He brought me to this position so I could save the lives of many people." God's good is allowing me to share my victory with others who are going through the early part of their Joseph season.

It's not traditional but it's a straight forward and truthful read. Despite the title it has something for EVERYONE (not just gays,blacks, and/or women)to learn from! Ericka K.F. Simpson has done it again!!!! I can't wait for more!</div></div>
