Review: TD Harrington - September 30, 2025

I’ve completed your book, and I must say what a blessing it was! Below is my review:

You shared just enough of your life story to give readers hope and inspire even a non-believer to want to know more about the God who saved you. The book was comprehensible, relatable, and relevant. I especially appreciated that it wasn’t filled with overly complex words that made the reading experience smooth and enjoyable!

I truly believe this book will lead many people to Christ, and it will challenge believers to go deeper in their walk with God. Personally, it helped me come out on the other side of my wilderness season.

Your book is far more than a story, it’s a guide of self discovery.

One of my childhood memories is of Miss Maggie.

At a time when most women were being mistreated and controlled by men, she was strong but caring. She took care of so many people but didn’t let anyone boss her around. She made her big boys do what she said and no man was telling her how to handle her business!

About Rise and Create

Rise & Create is rooted in the belief that creativity is a catalyst for transformation. This space exists to awaken the divine spark within each of us.

At Rise & Create, the visual, the verbal, and the visionary come together, through painting, photography, writing, and inspirational speaking. It’s an invitation to rise above fear, limitation, and self-doubt, and to create boldly from the heart.

Rise & Create was started as a personal reminder of who I am and whose I am. I believe we are all created by God: intentionally, purposefully, and with the power to create.

You were made to create.
