Lancaster, KY Author Publishes Memoir

"Reset: Succored by Christ," a new book by Shontail M. Hocker, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

A powerful new book and astounding true story detailing Hocker's journey through profound grief, hitting rock bottom, and ultimately finding her true purpose through God's grace.

The narrative begins with a series of devastating personal tragedies. Following the consecutive deaths of her father, her sister, and a close, mother-like friend, Shontail was consumed by grief. This heavy emotional weight led her away from her faith and into a dark period marked by betrayal, substance abuse, and worldly distractions.

Her life reached a critical turning point when she was sentenced to 96 months in prison. Incarceration forced a period of absolute stillness, which Shontail now recognizes as a divine intervention. Behind bars, she began intensely reading and studying the Bible, actively searching for deeper meaning. Through this dedicated spiritual pursuit, she experienced a profound awakening, recognizing God's constant presence throughout her life's darkest moments.

Today, Shontail is completely resetting her life, moving forward with grace, love, and a renewed heart centered on Christ. Her book offers readers a raw, transparent look at her personal turmoil, while illustrating her ultimate realization: that Christianity is not merely a rigid religion, but an existence defined by experiencing God's embrace. Shontail's journey serves as a universal reminder of the power of reconciliation and spiritual healing.
