Victory in the Valley is a very personable book of poetry that helped me through some of my darkest moments. When there was a loss of a loved one, financial and health issues or those times I just did not feel that God was with me. I felt out of the ark of safety and alone. It's easy to glorify God when things are going well. But can you acknowledge Him when faced with shattered dreams and broken promise? As I pour out in this book allow it to minister to the broken parts of you so that healing can begin. Shunda Johnson is a native of Cincinnati, Oh.
