RISE" is a powerful ministry tool of healing birthed by a young woman of God who is wise beyond her years. Knowing Summer's faith walk, I have seen her RISE to amazing heights as an author of healing and as a spiritual role model to young and old alike. This tiny booklet is a thought provoking instrument of spiritual development and personal change. Excellent work daughter of God... -- Rev. Dr. Deirdre Monique Stokelin, U.S. Army Chaplain Corps Retired This booklet is proof that great things come in small packages. For those who struggle to move beyond defeat to God given destiny, this concise and practical guide is for you. -- Pastor Kevin Love, Living Faith Community Church In today's world where there is so much hurt, pain, confusion, sickness, and fear, combined with a lack of faith in Jesus and very little emphasis on Christian values, we are in desperate need of a word of hope and comfort; a word that will let us know that there is still an opportunity to rise above any challenge that we face. I truly believe the Lord breathed on this booklet, and that Dr. Summer wrote it by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. It's very timely, easy to read, and will inspire anyone to make the necessary choices that will bring healing, joy and peace. I believe that this booklet was birthed out of the depth of Dr. Summer's soul. She has been challenged to make choices which determined whether or not she would live a life filled with joy or a life filled with despair; she chose to live by faith and to "RISE" up and live for Jesus. This booklet will challenge anyone that reads it to do the same, and live for Christ. To God be the glory. -- Dr. D. L.
