Marked, Not Scarred: If I Told It, You Couldn't Hold It (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781545612385)

Many have said God spared them from the wrong path, but author Shateka Legette can truthfully state that God intervened several times throughout her life. In her new autobiography, "If I Told It, You Couldn't Hold It," Shateka reflects on the various blessings and trials where God was apparent in her life. Growing up in a small town, Shateka endured poverty with her family, even living in a barn after surviving a fire in their home. Her parents' marriage was quite volatile, leading to divorce, and Shateka struggled against tricks of the devil during much of her adolescence. Her issues with fornication caused her to backslide in faith until God intervened and guided her to a more prosperous path. Shateka hopes readers see, as she recounts school stories, attending FMU and family tragedies and triumphs, how God never left and was always there for comfort and lighting her way forward
