WJOF 2017 Contest Winner!
By Women's Journey of Faith
Word Alive Press, in collaboration with Women’s Journey of Faith, are thrilled to announce the winning manuscripts for our 2017 Women’s Journey of Faith Contest!
Cyndi Desjardins Wilkens
Shine On
Shine On is the well-crafted and poignant story of Cyndi Desjardins Wilkens, who awoke in hospital to discover that she had lost all four limbs to flesh-eating disease. Her courage to reclaim her life, and faith in the God of restoration, make this inspirational book a must-read.
“My heart is dancing with joy and full of gratitude for the opportunity to share this story of God’s redeeming grace through an unimaginable life altering event. I am praying that God uses this story to shine His light for those who may be facing dark times.”
—Cyndi Desjardins Wilkens, WJOF winner for Shine On
