MAITLAND, FL— Denise Christine Simon Gorman’s new book, Free to Walk in Faith, ($12.99, paperback, 9781498482547; $6.99, e-book, 9781498482554) focuses on the author’s amazing spiritual journey in drawing strength from her faith in God while dealing with many hardships, including her dad’s battle with alcoholism and the tragic loss of her childhood friend. Her experiences are at times heartbreaking and will touch many readers. Although difficult to write about, she shares the details frankly and sincerely – in a writing voice that is both casual and conversational – making this book easy and enjoyable to read. Her relatable challenges, as well as her short visit to heaven complete with a conversation with Jesus, makes this a thought provoking and inspiring book for all readers. Now at peace with herself and those she’s encountered throughout her life, the author’s journey has ultimately led her to discern that she is on this Earth to teach forgiveness.

I want readers to be happy now,” states the author. “They need to understand that God loves us. Forgiveness needs to happen. Heaven is for everyone. You can't have anything with out forgiveness.”

Denise Christine Simon Gorman is a first time author – this book is her first endeavor in the world of inspirational writing. A native of Youngstown, Ohio, she and her husband have made their home in Dayton since 1980, where they raised their three sons to adulthood. Denise spent 13 years working in dining services at the University of Dayton, serving as a “second mom” to the thousands of students she checked out at her cash register, empathetically listening to their stories and occasionally offering gentle, encouraging advice. Raised in the rich tradition of Maronite Catholicism, she now worships in the Roman Rite. Denise is a long-time member of the St Vincent DePaul Society. She volunteers in her parish’s bereavement ministry and the Corner Cupboard Thrift Store, and she is a member of the Dayton Catholic Women’s Club. Denise plans to continue her work in faith-inspired writing.
