The reason why I wrote this book is to assist women of all culture and races with some form of knowledge of how to cope in the valleys of life. I hope women will learn from my mistakes and do it better. I am not a saint or self-righteous. My hope is that they will get to know Christ in an intimate way, because if women have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, their lives will become better. They will have a better survival rate than someone who is on their own and has no one. The bad things that people do to you, God turns it around in your favor. God has a purpose for all our lives. He is always working behind the scenes. When people come against you, God allowed it because it is all in his plan to work the kinks out of you and to take the bad parts of you to make you better. Life sometimes is not fair, but it is serving his plan to create you to be better, stronger, wiser, self-assured, and direct you into his purpose for your life. God intended it for good when he use the Judas of your life. It was hurtful to me when people ostracized me, lied on me, betrayed me, etc. It made me stronger, wiser, nonjudgmental, humbled me and gave me empathy for others. Everything serves a purpose in your life. Stay strong, keep the faith, trust God, stay prayerful, decree and declare great things for your life. Believe and see those great things, for your life is happening even if it is not physically in existence (Hebrews 11:1). Never give up, for if you keep on moving and doing the right things, you will someday succeed and be victorious over your obstacles in your life. God is giving you strength by allowing adversities to come into your life. Your adversities come, not to destroy you, but to push you further into God's great plan for your life. This is my life lesson learned, and Christ was guiding me the whole time. "Yea I walk through the valley of the shadow of death. I will fear no evil: For thou are with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me" (Psalm 23:4).

Depression is a thief. It can steal your confidence, your sleep, your peace of mind, your relationships, and even your life. Depression can feel like a dark tunnel where the only light is the headlamp of an oncoming train! If you find yourself feeling alone even in a room full of friends, losing sleep, irritable for no obvious reason, struggling to concentrate on things you used to love, you’re in good company. Author Bill Stephens spent years wondering why he felt so bad, before he figured out he was depressed. Like millions of others suffering with this insidious disease, Stephens found relief in counseling and medication, but his problems persisted. Through Valleys to Victory is about one ordinary man’s determination not just to survive, but to thrive, in spite of recurring depression. In this book, Stephens describes his own battle with depression, and his efforts to understand how the disease can mess with your mind, body and spirit. Stephens’ story is ultimately about victory, and hope for anyone willing to face their fears and stand up to their own demons, with God’s help. There are plenty of books on depression from a medical or counseling perspective, but this account adds a unique spiritual approach. Stephens believes that depression attacks not only the human mind and body, but the spirit as well. Beating depression requires healing in all three areas! Through Valleys to Victory is an open, honest and insightful approach to defining, identifying, and overcoming depression. With careful research, personal anecdotes, and emphasis on faith in Jesus Christ, it will help to relieve any soul burdened by “the blues”.

Apostle Keith Marks, an advocate of suffering, taught by life experiences, has overcome many obstacles, opposition, and demonic opponents, by the principles and precepts of God. Apostle Keith Marks has witnessed the hand of God bring him through life turbulences and tribulations by building a tabernacle for God to come and reign his power. Apostle Keith has traveled from Valley to victory by the grace of God. The process of victory will be painful; there will be problems, pressures, and persecutions, but this is what God will utilize to bring promotion. We are exposed to battles in life. Being a Christian doesnt exempt us from life frustrations, frailties, and fights. We simply must learn that the battle is not ours it belongs to the Lord. It was a process but Ive discovered that the battles are not designed to destroy us but to develop us. Our Victory was won on the cross of Calvary. God has equipped us for the victory through Jesus Christ. Whatever life sends, we are more than conquerors. We can stand against the enemy with an assurance of victory. From valley to victory. From weakness to a winner. From persecution to promotion. From victim to victory.

This book is the culmination of a life experienced by a young African American man who grew up on a farm in rural North Carolina (Longwood in Brunswick County). It is hoped that this work will help young people, especially African Americans, to develop early in life high love for themselves, parents, and siblings. The book begins with early goals of both parents. The two—my mother and father—truly became one as they showed love for each other and reared their children in a Christian home. They demonstrated that we work together in everything we do. They worked side by side constructing our house with wood that was obtained off the land that Dad had purchased prior to marriage. Despite his lack of a high school education, Dad had great abstract thinking that facilitated the positive completion of a beautiful house. House was a building that we stayed in; home was the place where love, joy, good food, quality clothes, positive dialogue, and communication abounded. Home was the center of sharing with each other, showing empathy and compassion, maintaining a positive work ethic, exhibiting respect and pride in the family name, and learning and practicing Scriptural verses, stories, and personalities. Most of all, our parents ensured that we went to church every Sunday and practiced faith in God daily. The book reveals how I used the above experiences to study, help people, change some laws, and show empathy. I tell some of the challenges that I overcame. I maintain that God is my shepherd. Surely, this is a victory in the valley of life. The book acknowledges that I have walked on the shoulders of my beloved parents. They taught and practiced that we should continuously trust in God and put God first.

Victory in the Valley is an inspiring testament of the redemptive power of God and a reflection of the unwavering faith Pastor Domeka Kelley possessed in the power of God and His ability to sustain him through every affliction. This book is a window into the life and journey of Domeka as he experiences pitfalls and setbacks, leading him into the darkest period of his life, which he refers to as his "Valley Experience." A valley is defined as a low place or area situated between mountains or hills, and in scripture, valleys are symbolic for difficulties and hardships, while mountains are symbolic for elevation or high place. In this book, Domeka understands although he is in the valley at his lowest, he's simply in between mountains, which is his high place. Equipped with the Word of God and the support of his wife Jessica and children Bryan, Nakia, Malik, and Leyah; Domeka faces every challenge with a smile bigger than his problems, knowing God brought him to it only to bring him through it. This book is relevant to all teaching biblical principles and presenting practical truths while answering two of the most difficult but common questions while in the midst of storms, trials, valleys or simply the fight of your life: How did I get here, and when is it going to be over? "When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on". Franklin D Roosevelt
