MovingMarch 20, 2005 Venus Mason Theus,(Michigan, USA) Back from Sanity's Edge, Denise Smith's gripping autobiography is inspiring and encouraging. I was moved to tears when I read how this woman of God gracefully faced challenge after challenge - even looking down the barrel of a gun and being shot five times at point blank range. This book is a must read, especially for any woman who feels she can't take life's challenges another day.
Sane or insane, only God knowsOctober 8, 2004 Sylvia McClain(Detroit, MI) Denise A. Smith was pushed over the edge and found a way to climb back up and over. If you thought you knew what going crazy was, Ms. Smith fills you in on the real deal about being sane. I was moved and inspired by the tests she was put through to survive in a world that has no soul. I highly recommend it to all those who think they have seen the trials and tribulations of living because you have not lived until you live the life of Denise A. Smith. The cover on her book says it all. You will find that "Trusting God Through the Pain" at the intersection of Main and Church Streets is all that will get you past "hell" on earth.
