Running the Race, Keeping the Faith

From her childhood in Brooklyn, New York, to law practice in North Carolina; from a judgeship in Stone Mountain, Georgia, to the halls of United States Congress, author Denise L. Majette has been Running the Race, Keeping the Faith. As a short, chubby, shy black girl born during Americas civil rights era, she dreamed big dreams. Through preparation, perseverance, and prayer, believing all things are possible with God, she worked to make them come true. In forty reflective chapters celebrating her fiftieth birthday, Majette the lawyer, judge, member of Congress, U.S. Senate nominee, wife, mother, and New York City Marathon runner tells the story of her Christian faith journey. Through biblical quotations and her original writings, she shares her insights and life lessons on relationships, religion, politics, and winning the race we call life from 1955 to 2005.
