MAITLAND, FL— With her new book, Memoirs
of a Virgin, Black Mother, ($9.99, paperback, 9781498429795; $4.99,
e-book, 9781498429801) Mahalia R. Watson’s powerful mission is to show that marital,
financial, nor societal status can impact the gift of motherhood like the
disarming force of God's love. Her story is certainly a unique one. As an adult
virgin, never having been married, the author answered the divine call to
become a single foster mother to not one, but two young children. The text
describes her spiritual walk in the midst of and after these major life events,
as well as God’s impact on the lives of her children.
“In a world where promiscuity and self-centeredness is celebrated, a story about a virgin-mother offers a refreshing change to the norm,” states the author. “This story allows audiences to experience, in a very real way, what a workaholic, single woman experienced as a mother... without never biblically ‘knowing’ a man. For every virgin, every mother, every person who has ever messed up, and every person needing love, grace, and forgiveness, this is a journey worth embarking upon.”
Miss Mahalia R. Watson, MA, a native of Greenville, MS, is a graduate of Oral Roberts University. She began her career as a therapist to abused foster children, and is now an author, motivational speaker, recording artist, ordained evangelist, and founder of the much-acclaimed Anti-F.I.S.T. Project.
