Have you ever been stuck to the point of paralysis, where moving just seems to be almost impossible? In Give Me a Year, author Dr. Donetrus G. Hill presents a tool to redefine what's possible and remove barriers in the face of opportunity.
He offers a refreshingly honest depiction of how life's perils are designed to build character and strength. Hill encourages, empowers, and energizes you through knowledge, faith, and testimony, providing guidance to rediscovery and self-realization.
Give Me a Year implores you to follow your dreams, go for your goals, and be bold and consistent in your quest to accomplish the most outlandish of aspirations. It encourages you to live out loud and embrace the things about you that make you, you. Don't give up on your life, marriage, relationship, children, family, career, degree, ministry, weight-loss goals, writing a book, starting a business, or buying a house.
