Closing Doors

Closing Doors, you ask? That’s right. They’re the ones where you almost lose your nose. In fact, some of these doors have been open before you for a long time and you’re accustomed to walking through them. Then, all of a sudden it happens. You are walking along not paying much attention and there it is in front of you. Not only is it closed, but it is also locked. What are these? CLOSING DOORS… Read more

Be Encouraged!

Be encouraged! What a statement! But what if you’re someone who is so down that it would take a miracle to get you up? You’ve probably heard this before, but tomorrow is a brand new day. Even though what you may be going through looks like it is larger than life and you don’t see any way through, it is still only temporary. Remember the weather, the storms do pass, but it’s those moments, when you are in them that seem like an eternity. The sun is still shining in the midst of the storm, it is just blocked from our vision. The earth is still the same and when the water droplets dissipate and the wind stills to a whisper, it will be another brand new day. A day just waiting for you to start again, mold it and create into whatever masterpiece is waiting for you, just like an artist. Father created you, He cares and He knows how to help you. He wants you to have a brand new start. You are precious, even more so than all the flowers in the world or even the animals. He’ll give you a sign in the skies, maybe a rainbow to symbolize the storm is over. Maybe you’ll get a special parking place. Maybe the traffic lights will turn green. Maybe you’ll just see something funny and laugh for a minute or two and forget for a moment. Just remember, you are not alone. If you call out to Him, He will hear you. How do I know? Because I’ve been there more times than I can remember and I’m still here and it gets better. There were many times I didn’t want to go on for another day. Read more

Mike Paxton’s SDDL Review

“Janiece is a true wonder of the miraculous power & love of God the Father. He gave her life back after she had almost died and began a gradual process of restoration. She had to learn to see herself as a woman, a person of value, and one that had been completely forgiven of her past. The Church women began to work with her and the Lord blossomed her inner man into a beautiful rose, full of compassion and mercy for others, a zeal for God and a passion for a full and rich life. The work of Christ continues, her humility, patience with new believers and servant heart are the real treasures of life that Pastors and the people of God long to see develop and mature in His children. She is a true treasure of the faithfulness of our loving Father in Heaven and she will always have the respect and admiration of my family, the Church she serves and of her family.” Read more

Overcoming The Darkness Within & Depression

Overcoming depression can seem like a hopeless situation, especially when one feels like they are falling down into a deep dark chasm from which there seems to be no escape, let alone hope. Many in the medical community will say that medical treatment is the only way for help, to which I declare not necessarily so. I’ve walked within the clutches of depression during various times within my life, and my wife, Janiece, almost lost her life to its deadly stranglehold. I am speaking from experience and not some textbook theories and studies that many may hold up as truth, but in the end may do more harm than good. (Please note: I am not saying that some of these methods do not help some to some extent and even serve to provide some hope and prolong life.) I am saying that to totally rely on this as The Truth is a very treacherous path to walk. OVERCOMING THE DARKNESS WITHIN & DEPRESSION! Read more

A Mother’s Last Prayer

Excerpt from “Sentenced To Death, Destined For Life”

Mother’s Last Resort – Page 144

Bob and Gin had exhausted every means to save their baby girl. They had walked with her through the asthma for years, through the dog bite, through the gender issues and especially through the injury and the suicide attempts during the mental slide. They never gave up. There were many people who also tried to help her over the years, including many who weren’t family. Many prayers had been prayed, but they seemed to land on hard and dry ground, unanswered. Read more

Christa Edward’s SDDL Review

“What a blessing and privilege to have Janiece in my life as a friend and sister in Christ. It has been an amazing journey over the years to witness the transformation of a woman in body, mind and spirit, through the mercy, grace and healing of Jesus Christ and the tenacity of a woman, who refused to stop short of all that God had for her. I am reminded of God’s word in Romans 12:10–12 that describes Janiece’s heart so well…Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. I praise God and share in your excitement with the completion of this book, prayerful that God’s powerful healing, mercy, and unconditional love be revealed to all who read it.”

The God Of Janiece

It was easy last night to write and post about having a goal of 100,000 books distributed by Christmas on my facebook page. After I wrote it, I thought, “Oh no, what did I do?” I think that a lot after I hit the “return” button. I am so grateful for our friends, who keep encouraging us to keep on because they are encouraged by what we share. At 3 something this morning that number came back to me, but this time it was for 100,000 people by Christmas. I know this is a small number in comparison to the many and you will understand what I mean if you continue on reading…THE GOD OF JANIECE! Read more

Following is what we know so for… Read more

It’s Mine – You Can’t Have It

“Sentenced To Death, Destined For Life – Tell My People I Love Them! – The Janiece Turner-Hartmann Story (Excerpt from Chapter 6)

Janiece recalled, “When I first came out of surgery, right after the accident, they told me they didn’t know if I would be able to keep my arm because the ink was ground into the bones. Unless they could get it all off of the bones, they would have to cut the arm off because of the risk of infection. They showed me this tool that almost looked like a spoon, but it had a blade on one side and they would have to use it to scrape the bones.” Read more

It’s Not Over

You know the old saying, “It’s not over, ’till it’s over!” It is the truth. After everyone had given up hope, the miracles started to happen. One could argue that maybe God wanted it that way and they may be right. After so many years of suffering, pain and crying out to the Lord for help, He did answer. It wasn’t the way they had thought it would be, but then again it never is. God is God. He sees things from His perspective, through eternity and His plan for salvation for all mankind. Who are we to judge His ways? Yet, He gives us His Word and through everything He does, especially His timing, He always stays true to it. IT’S NOT OVER! Read more
