Book excerpt: This book is a result of 12 amazing women who accepted the challenge and made a decision to allow the World to take a peek "Beyond the Smile" they wear so well. Several months ago, The Holy Spirit gave me the title of this book. I took time and wrote down ten titles to include "Beyond the Smile", but wanted to give the co-authors an opportunity to help select the right one. Although I knew what God had already spoken, I sent them all ten titles and ask that they each select the three top choices. God had spoken again as the top choice was "Beyond the Smile", after the second round of voting. Let's go a little deeper on the choice in naming the book. The women in this compilation of amazing stories tell their truths of smiling while hurting and wounded. I sometimes call it "serving while hemorrhaging." Many women can relate to living their daily lives while much is going on within, but yet they smile. There are many times that we endure betrayal, negativity, and fear, yet we still smile. Most of the times, those closest to us don't even know what is going on within the depths of our souls. These women of strong FAITH, who I affectionately call Queens, have emptied themselves onto paper and has discovered the therapeutic necessity of telling their truth to bless other women. The launching of this book was as though we each released a thousand doves. It is a symbolization of freedom and self-awakening. God created for us, a sister circle of support for one another that will live forever. We each found strength and confidence in prayer and the love that has been displayed birthed victory in abundance. Sit back, grab you warm throw blanket and a glass of your favorite drink as we go "Beyond the Smile" of my co-authors Ashley Brittney, Consuelo Allen, Detral Williams, Kenyatta Collins, LaQuanda Plantt, Mia Colemon, Michelle Hudson, Renata Triblett, Sharon P. Jones, Zen Watson, Tonya Clinton, and Ynwanda S. Market.
