Author Sharon A. Jones’s New Book, "The Mind in Pieces," is an Inspiring Exploration of the Courage to Move Beyond Adversity and Trust in God’s Divine Plan

Kansas City, MO, July 23, 2025 --(PR.com)-- Sharon A. Jones, a dedicated scholar and a fervent devotee of the Bible, has completed her new book, “The Mind in Pieces”: a powerful and deeply moving discussion that utilizes the Biblical story of Ruth as well as the author’s experiences to reveal how holding close to one’s trust in God can serve as a powerful lifeline to weather whatever roadblocks or setbacks life may present.

“The story of Ruth is more than a story; it’s a life lesson of interruptions and kairos moments that come into each of our lives,” writes Jones. “Again, they come in many forms, including tragedies; Ruth’s character was one of resilience and courage. It takes courage to move beyond tragedy and trust God amidst the unknown. It takes looking outside of ourselves to refocus on living; we must love Christ to cultivate a heart of compassion for others and help them through adversities. We often say all the right words, but we don’t take action to prove our love for people. On the cross, in agonizing pain, Jesus focused His ministry away from the physical suffering and spoke to John to care for His mother. This is what love looks like; His focus was now on finishing the task before Him dying for mankind.

“What task are we willing to complete during the time we have left? What excuses will we give to Christ when we stand before Him? Why we didn’t? Notice the pain of Peter he looked within, focusing upon himself through his own fear he denied his Lord, he felt defeated. When he realized the effect, his shame had caused the agony of what he had done to his Master. His action caused a mountain of shame and loneliness. All of these emotions shed light on Peter’s guilt. But once he was forgiven by Christ and reconciled, he stopped hiding from the cross and could move forward. His ministry began, and courage took place. No longer in the shadows, he spoke with the boldness of the one that died and was raised again. His sermon brought salvation to three thousand souls and more. Even in our despair, we must visualize that we have a great cloud of witnesses in the heavenly saying, ‘Don’t give up.’ Why? Because your fight has not ended. Change your perspective and work until the end. I’m cheering you on. You got this!”
