  Meet Kerika Fields & Dr. Cindy Trimm
  

  Meet Kerika Fields, author of "He's Gone...He's Back"
  

  "I was inspired to write this book because of all I've been through and all that we as women go through in relationships. I looked around at the  books about breakups--the funny books, the sad books, the witty books, the edgy books-- but there were no holistic books on breakups.  And  so I  went ahead and wrote  a holistic book on breaking up that I think happens to be funny, sad, witty and edgy, too!" reveals author Kerika Fields about her debut book.

   

   

  “I am extremely  excited  about the release of He's Gone...You're Back!,” says Kerika. “I look forward to sharing my hard-earned life experiences with women  who are seeking support in moving past life’s inevitable losses and disappointments. I hope my book’s information and insight will inspire readers to let go of past pain and move forward with their lives in positive and productive ways.”

  “Commanding Your Morning” (Review by Cherly Pope) in the Michigan Chronicle
  
  

  How do you start your day? Many people watch the morning news or read the local headlines, thus allowing negativity and turmoil to prevail their thoughts. But there is a better way to embark on the daily ritual of life. In “Commanding Your Morning” (Charisma House), Dr. N. Cindy Trimm authenticates that the power of life and death is in the tongue (Proverbs 18:21).
  
  This may be the Christian version of the best-selling New York’s book, “The Secret.” Trimm said, “We define our lives by every thought and word...it all starts with what we think and say.” In the first chapter, she uses the analogy of the law of attraction to drive the idea that what we think or believe in our spirit is manifest tangibly. She gives Scripture to back up every claim.
  
  The powerful evangelist, who has spoken at conferences hosted by popular televangelists T.D. Jakes and Juanita Bynum, applies personal relationships with friends to cement the reality of God’s love and His tremendous blessings. In one instance, a friend was experiencing financial challenges but was delivered from the overwhelming stress only after she spoke freedom from her situation and allowed God to work it out.
  
  “Commanding Your Morning” taps into the need people have for feeling that God is in control of their days and for overcoming the hindrances and dead ends so often encountered from the devil’s influence in their lives.
  
  “Commanding Your Morning” is an inspiring and thought-provoking read. The chapters are short and easy to read. The book helps you identify how spiritual thoughts and words can change lives. The foreword is by best-selling author Dr. Myles Monroe with endorsements by other popular ministry leaders such as Paula White and Judy Jacobs.
  
  Trimm, who was recently cited in Gospel Today magazine as one of the “new Kingdom voices,” is a sought-after motivational speaker, preacher, prosperity coach and former senator in Bermuda.
  
  She also has sold more than 110,000 copies of her self-published book, “The Rules of Engagement, Book I, II and III.”
