"From Disgrace to Grace: How Jesus Touched My Life": a genuine and forthright retelling of a rise from the ashes to a life lived in service and honor of the Father. "From Disgrace to Grace: How Jesus Touched My Life" is the creation of published author, Candace Cherry, who grew up in Bowling Green, Kentucky. She has two brothers and a sister whom she loves very much. She has seven children, and is a grandmother of one precious little boy who was born on Christmas Day of 2014. She loves being a mom and being involved with her children. She is passionate about helping people.

Candace shares, "I like to think that I have great strengths and great weaknesses. My strengths would be loving people and understanding what they're going through and not judging so quickly. My strengths also include having compassion for people and putting my feet in their shoes. My weaknesses would be I am nothing without Jesus Christ, my savior. When I am weak, he is strong".

She continues, "I am a very shy person, and I don't like to be center of attention. Jesus is the rock that I stand on, and with him, all things are possible. I love to worship and praise the Lord. I love going to God first when I have a problem because he works so much faster than I. I love writing for the Lord and giving him glory. Glorifying God is beautiful to me".

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Candace Cherry's new book describes a life lived in sin, working for Satan, transformed to serving the living God; a sinner saved by grace.

It was a dark time in Candace's life where she was doing things wrong by stealing, cheating, and living a life full of sin. Not knowing that there were consequences to her actions. Living in a world that is fallen and evil to the core. She was suddenly lost and without hope and didn't know which way to turn. Prayers weren't being heard, and life was spinning out of control. One thing after another was coming at her. She was brought to her knees, and she found herself broken. The shame was unbearable and too much for her to bear. Candace prayed to the Lord, and nothing happened. She found herself crying for mercy to the Lord and begging for his forgiveness. She didn't know how she was going to get through this painful part in her life.

Candace concludes by saying, "As my cry entered the Lord's ears, he had answered me, and he told me that he has forgiven me and his peace he leaves with me. The peace he gave me was not of this world. He told me to serve him and not sin. He told me to walk uprightly before him and to always acknowledge his son, Jesus Christ, the savior of the world. The day the Lord touched me was the greatest day of my life. I suddenly had regrets, wishing I had known the Lord sooner in my life. The Lord is so good and merciful. If I had only given him my life sooner, I thought, and then he reminded me that I wouldn't have the testimony I have today if I would've known him sooner. God has perfect timing, and he is always on time. Those who call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Wait patiently upon the Lord, and he will place you upon the rock of salvation, and that is Jesus Christ."
