One of the judges, Dr. Richard R. Blake, D.Min, former instructor at Bay Cities Bible College, commented regarding Cheng's book, "In poetic prose Shirley describes the nature of God and the character of Christ with clarity, emotion, and passion. She boldly addresses traditional church doctrine giving her own personal insight and interpretation logically, using a common sense analysis. She includes foundational doctrines for living the spiritual life courageously with determined intention. In a concise, yet complete, Bible summary, Cheng covers important events and a review of the important themes of the entire Bible from Genesis through Revelation."
"I've made it my life's mission to touch as many people as I possibly can to bring the Word of God. I'm truly grateful to Jehovah for allowing me to receive my third award for this book to assist me in my efforts. To God be all the glory and honor!" says Cheng.

Shirley Cheng (b. 1983), a blind and physically disabled award-winning author (with 23 book awards, including nine Parent to Parent Adding Wisdom Awards and Mom's Choice Awards), motivational speaker, self-empowerment expert, poet, author of nine books, contributor to 22, and a parental rights advocate, has had severe juvenile rheumatoid arthritis since infancy. Owing to years of hospitalization, she received no education until age eleven. Back then, she knew only her ABCs and very simple English; other than that, her book knowledge was non-existent. However, after only about 180 days of special education in elementary school, she mastered grade level in all areas and entered a regular sixth grade class in middle school. Unfortunately, Shirley lost her eyesight at the age of seventeen. After a successful eye surgery, she hopes to earn multiple science doctorates from Harvard University. http://www.shirleycheng.com
