In this book you will discover the following.

About the Author
Foreword
I am so excited to say that Monique has written an excellent book and I believe that its contents will revolutionize your thinking. In No More Drama, Monique asserts that in order for us to change our environment, we must first allow Holy Spirit to change us.
This is a message that the body of Christ desperately needs to hear. Sometimes the hardest thing in the world for us to do is to accept that we need to change. However, this book challenges us to appropriate the power of God in every area of our lives, so that we are able to resolve to do the will of God no matter what the cost. Monique identifies dysfunctional behavior and shows us that there is greater blessing for those of us who decide to live by faith.
Monique truly has her finger on the pulse on the real issues and with a Christ-like boldness, tells us the truth. The wisdom shared in this book will uncover time tested principles in the Word of God.
I want to encourage every woman to read this book. This book will show you how not to allow past hurts or low self-esteem to hinder you from achieving your dreams. Allow the little girl in you to dream once again and give yourself permission to pursue God’s best for your life. Eliminate the drama and bring order to your life.

No More Drama
digs into the root of the issue all through the book. From finances, to the church, through relationships, this no nonsense book pulls the cover off the issues that so many people fail to confront.
I was humbled as I read and realized that the answer lays before me in every issue of life. The author has crafted practical application in addressing weakness that has plagued the rudiments of life. No More Drama is a must-read for those who desire the truth. We love you!!!

The general encouraging message of No More Drama
is one of how to deal with various types of drama or spiritual challenges in a godly and spiritual way. Pastor Monique presents and explains various situations in which drama may occur and quickly emphasizes that we have the victory (in the situations) through Jesus Christ.

To my wonderful husband who helps me be who I am. Thank you for supporting me in all my endeavors. God has truly blessed me not with a nice, sweet and lovable guy but an anointed Man of God. Your commitment and love toward my dreams an aspiration amaze me. You have shown me what true agape love looks like. The best is yet to come. We Always Win!!!!
Pastor Mary Searight, I thank you so much for the motherly love and nurturing you gave me. I could not have built the ministry without you and Bishop’s guidance and counsel. The spiritual advice and wisdom you imparted is so appreciated. Your hugs and kisses, and just seeing your face always encouraged me. I love you. I remember one morning that I could not get out of the bed and I saw your face smiling at me, saying baby you can do it. I felt your hug that gave me strength to put one leg out the bed. I felt your love through all through my spirit. Thank you for loving God’s people and showing me the love I needed.
Pastor Cleo V. Townsend, you are a precious gift to the body of Christ. The affection you have shown me, I remember like it was yesterday. I will never forget the intimate talks and prayer at 6:00am. You’re parenting instructions, training me how to handle situations on the spot, and the transparency helped me to be freer with others in ministry. I miss the time we spent together. I love you for reminding me about taking care of my husband first. Thank you for the love and impartation. When I grow up I will have a body just like yours. Love you, with all my heart.
Grandma & Granddad, oh how I love and cherish my grandparents. All the memories, lessons, the trips, and the love will never be replaced or forgotten. Everybody knows that I have the best grandparents in the world. You have shown me what a real Christian seeking after God looks like. Your example of seeing Christ through a human being has been displayed for over sixty years. I move and make decisions based upon the example you have set before me. I thank
