In Pieces, In Power is a raw, unfiltered journey of survival, healing, faith, and self-discovery. Through powerful storytelling and poetic reflection, Joshua Hester-Johnson invites readers into the most vulnerable chapters of his life-navigating childhood trauma, identity, church hurt, family abandonment, military service, and the complex intersections of being Black, queer, spiritual, and resilient.
This book is not about perfection-it's about becoming. Divided into three transformative parts-The Pieces, The Shift, and The Power-the story moves from brokenness to breakthrough, showing how pain can become purpose and scars can become strengthWith honesty, courage, and spiritual depth, In Pieces, In Power speaks directly to anyone who has ever felt unseen, silenced, or forced to perform strength while quietly falling apart. It is a testimony for survivors, dreamers, faith-wrestlers, and anyone searching for wholeness in a world that often demands silence.
Inside these pages, readers will discover:
Healing through vulnerability and truth
Strength born from trauma and resilience
Faith beyond religious performance
Identity reclaimed without shame
Hope rebuilt from broken beginnings
This book is not just meant to be read-it is meant to be felt.
If you've ever questioned your worth...
If you've ever carried pain alone...
If you've ever wondered if God made a mistake with you...
In Pieces, In Power is your reminder: You are not broken. You are becoming.
