  Just released: the audiobook edition of the spiritually inspiring memoir, GodSway by Diana Keathley. Book description: Diana Skidmore Keathley's journey-of-faith account details a lifetime of extraordinary divine encounters. Messages from God in her childhood were countered by episodes of engulfing fear, culminating in one terrifying attack.

God responded and filled her life with a heavenly outpouring of messages, dreams, and outright miracles, molding her into a woman of audacious faith in the powerfully loving and intimately involved Creator.

  Excerpt from  GodSway   (Keathley): Daddy’s Girl (part 2) On weekdays, late in the afternoon I sensed when it was time to start listening for the sound of the Ford Fairlane pulling into the driveway. Sometimes Dad would stop at the grocery store to pick up a few things we needed before the weekend shopping. If he was much later than I thought he should be, I would fret and hound Mom every minute or two with my insistent question, “When is Daddy going to be home?!” Finally, I would hear the car outside the window and race to hide behind the front door. I wanted to jump out and “scare” him as he came in. Many a time, Dad stumbled through the living room with a grocery sack in each arm. With me hanging for dear life onto his leg, he was trying not to step on me and fumbling to keep his balance long enough to set the groceries on the dining room table. Then, he’d scoop me up and give me a bear hug. The best part of my day was just beginning. He used to wrestle and play...

  In her most recent blog post, Diana Keathley, author of the award-winning book, GodSway , writes: I know someone who lives nearby who struggles with anxiety. We all do to a certain extent. That is, we all deal with anxiety to one degree or another… and, many of us know someone who suffers greatly from it. I myself have as well. This young man is handsome, intelligent, gentle, loving, very talented musically, and funny. He believes in God and knows that Jesus is His Son. I’m actually very fond of the man. Yet I’ve watched him go through a number of phases of dependency in his efforts to deal with the anxiety – from vodka to marijuana, from prescription anxiety meds back to medical marijuana. Truth is, he is much the same, at least from outward observations, as he was a decade ago – except ten years older – still stuck, paralyzed with fear about a variety of issues: working, how to begin looking for a job, what kind of job, how to explain why he hasn’t been working, loss of faith a...

  Here is the review in its entirety: Diana Skidmore Keathley's memoir,  GodSway , is an extraordinary testament to a life shaped by divine encounters and unwavering faith. The narrative unfolds as a journey marked by early messages from God, intertwined with episodes of overwhelming fear that crescendo into a harrowing attack. Keathley, in her vulnerability, confronts God's love head-on, paving the way for a transformative response that defines the rest of her life. The book captures the essence of a life in dialogue with the divine, chronicling a poignant challenge to God that becomes a turning point. In the crucible of this challenge, the author's audacious faith is not only affirmed but rewarded with a celestial outpouring of messages, dreams, and outright miracles. Keathley emerges as a woman shaped by these experiences, embodying audacious faith in a Creator who is both powerfully loving and intimately involved.
