We are excited about introducing to you what we believe to be one of the most meaningful books you'll ever read. This book is the beginning of a project with a divine purpose to help turn the hearts of the fathers back to the children, to advocate for the victims of injustice, and uniting their voices to speak in the ears of lawmakers. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. To help create a sound and functional household for the underprivileged surrounding neighborhoods that would instill in them a desire to climb to higher heights; even to the extent of becoming entrepreneurs, and enabling them to do so. This book is part one of a memoir that illustrates many true and personal life experiences, such as government corruption, injustice, dysfunctional families, sexual intercourse, the love of money, parenting, government informants, and much more, based on how they're viewed through the mind of God as well as man. All to help stabilize the family and structuring it the way God intended for it to be. In the recent past, a study found that there were about 2.3 million people incarcerated here in the United States, which is more than any other country, with 140,610 serving a life sentence and two-thirds of them being black and Latino. Nearly one-third of the total number of inmates serving life has no possibility for parole, and sadly, many of which are nonviolent offenders. Surely we must demand change. Perry Malone is a first time author who is currently and temporarily incarcerated. While endeavoring to regain his freedom through the exposure of government corruption, Perry Malone not only surrendered his life to the Lord, but also discovered his ordained purpose and calling which is revealed within the pages of this book. He is now divorced with four children and six grandchildren.

The Bible clearly does not pull any punches when it comes to the troubles of this world that will regularly test our faith and challenge our resolve to keep putting one foot in front of the other. Job 14:14 assures us that if we are born of woman, it is in our best interest to maximize each moment of our lives and soldier up, because we will most assuredly wrestle against the principalities and powers that seek to wreak havoc on every aspect of our lives. How I Got Over: A Short Story Devotional for the Difficult Days of Life is a realistic depiction of some of the most overwhelming challenges that I have confronted in various seasons of my life. It addresses times in my life when I was used, misused, and forsaken by people closest to my heart. It tells of times when I made reckless personal sacrifices to add value to the productivity, profitability, and innovation of companies – only to have those companies usher me out of the building, under the guise of reduction in force or some other euphemistic rationale that would make them feel better about themselves and keep their companies out of court. As you continue to turn the pages, you will hear of times when religion and morally objectionable conduct severely undermined my marital relationship. This short story devotional also speaks to unrelenting thorns in my flesh and fears of living lonely and of dying alone. Trust me when I tell you, “Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair!” I’ve been in some storms that almost took me out and under. And I am confident that I am not the only one out here being battered about by great afflictions. The seemingly unrelenting circumstances of life will invariably test the wit, will, and resolve of us all. Tests and trials are inevitable, folks. No one (regardless of race, socioeconomic status, or zip code) exits this world without battle scars. No one! So what's a soul to do? When life is coming at you with a vengeance, resist the urge to give up or give in to its fury. Instead, lift your eyes unto the hills, cry out to the heavens, and trust God to come to your rescue. Trust him to bring you out and over, because he most assuredly will!
