Publisher's Synopsis
Sometimes you feel like you are the black sheep of the family. Always in trouble, not in the world, but at home. Almost everything that happens is your fault even when it is not. You are a lover of people but was told by your mother everyone you meet is not your friend. You were a people person, but as life goes on you learn more about people. God will give you more insight. You never desired to be any great person in this world. You just wanted to be yourself. You just wanted to love people and help as many people as you can. Was talked into joining a motorcycle club with some friends. Then was named the Motorcycle Queen, never thought that would be apart of my life. Then became a DJ. Spun records in nightclubs were not my desire but became great. My name was Lady Duchess for both. But from training through ministry, and I did not know that at that time, ministry was not on my mind. I said, "not me," but God said, "yes, you." Life took a big change from then. I faced a lot of challenges, but God is good and he brought me through. This book was written by Pastor/Evangelist Glenda Ricks of The Threshold Of Faith Outreach Ministry, located in Gonzales La.
