Book Description
In life, trials and tribulations are designed to destroy us. But with God, my challenges with abuse, drug addiction, hardship, betrayal, and loneliness could not break me. As I recount my life’s journey, His presence has been with me through it all. According to Romans 8:28 (AMP), “And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good.” Hope and trust in God always, and you, too, will find yourself still standing.

Book Description
I'M STILL STANDING is the story of a man whose idea of duty put him in conflict with the powers that be, and how he endured the injustice of false charges and wrongful incarceration, turning bad providence into spiritual growth. Raymond Hicks writes candidly about the humiliation that he suffered as an upstanding young black officer who was wrongly accused by his coworkers-the anguish and financial ruin that he and his family experienced as he single-handedly attempted to fight corruption within the sheriff's department, as well as within the justice system which failed him. Hicks, a modern-day Serpico, reveals his story in hopes that no other dedicated individual will ever have to suffer through a "justice system gone mad." The purpose of this book is not just to restore justice, to "right the wrongs" visited upon Mr. Hicks, but to make everyone aware of the dangers we all face in a country riddled with corruption to such a degree that "honesty" is all but eliminated.

Ray was diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease at the age of 27, which left him with reduced immunity and potentially infertile, but happy to be alive. Five years later, back working as a builder and the father of twins, he cut his hand unblocking a drain. This led to kidney failure, septicaemia and the eventual removal of his arms and legs. Life as a quad amputee seemed bleak and overwhelming. His family were supportive but no one could possibly understand how he felt. This is the story of his struggle to cope with all that life has thrown at him, including his attempt to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. This book is a way of raising the profile of amputees, continuing the legacy of the Paralympics by giving hope and inspiration for the future, spreading the message that everyone can overcome anything with enough determination.

Book Description
Every aspect of the chapters in this book shows the supremacy and the miracle-working power of the all-powerful God, who doesn't need the help of anyone to accomplish His plans for our lives. Therefore, this humbled servant depended totally on Him in accomplishing His plans for her life. She has encountered many challenges in life. Some were near-death experiences through the hand of spiritual wickedness and others which motivated her to place her entire trust and life in God totally. Others were doors shut in her face, failure, fear, and doubt; however, she's still trusting and holding to what she believes. She's still motivated, fully persuaded, and still standing on the Word that is in her heart. Her intension in this book is to encourage readers to remain steadfast and unmovable in their faith in God. No matter what storm or wind may blow their way or how hopeless circumstances may seem or the abundance of things that the devil throws against you, know that God is still in control, and you can always count on Christ as your only Beacon of hope. In the midst of your struggle, you must still stand, for the omnipotent (all-powerful), omniscient (all-knowing), and omnipresent (all-present) God has not given you a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind. She has chosen this subject particularly because, like many believers, she has been knocked down several times, but not knocked out. We are still standing. She places emphasis on 1 Corinthians 4:8-12. She also encourages others that procrastinating and contemplating to do anything is not an option in their lives. All things are made possible with God. Today she can say to God be the glory, great things He's done.
