We Were Born To Shine... - Paperback

"Ruth has chronicled a brave, bold and honest journey. Her quest to record an eye opening bird's eye view into the educational systems of America is sure to help many souls successfully navigate the valleys and hills that lie ahead as we strive for freedom in a world that often buries its jewels in the muck and mire of political correctness. Indeed, we were born to shine, and this book will help us to believe." (Dr. Alveda C. King, Founder of King for America.) "I want to encourage you to take the time not just to read but think through this book by my dear friend, Ruth Stafford. She has shown great courage to honestly, yet lovingly challenge the prevalent thinking in our country. Ruth asks us to reconsider the value of all people, born and pre-born, and to understand that when we choose one life, we really devalue all life. It is imperative that we get honest with ourselves, even question the "status quo" thinking and begin to realize that our only hope is to begin to see people through God's eyes." (Lead Pastor, Chets Creek Church) "Ruth boldly opens the door to societal problems, exposing how a child's home life affects everything: morality, goals, intellect, dreams and character. She declares, 'Reading is knowledge.'" "With facets of poetry, life experiences, statistics, and resources, Ruth woos the reader towards a shinning, conclusive hope. In this book a window opens allowing God's light to illuminate the dark places. Silently, a God consciousness streams in, restoring the broken spirit in practical application. Open the mind. Breathe the truth. Live the faith. Care for one another. Make a difference. Be a conduit of His light." (Billie Cash, Author, Speaker, Motivator) wwwbilliecash.com
