Accountable Discipleship by David Watson

Accountable Discipleship by David Watson

That's what you could call my life and all the obstacles that it took for me to get to the place of a Pivot. What do you call the girl who was born to be great but the only success she found solace in was messing up? Being a teenage mother, in and out of incarceration, and just making all the wrong decisions. Pivot tells a story about a young lady who accepted everything that wasn't meant for her until she decided that she was going to go after everything that was Pivot is a funny, direct, and graphic story of how you can be whatever you want to be, even after you have been what everyone considered you to be for so long. This book takes you on her journey, starting from the day she was released from a horrendous yet humbling prison sentence to the place where she decided she was built - and ready - for change. As you turn each page, understand that who she was then, and all the things she has gone through, has been the very thing that makes her the woman she is now
