A former NBA wife, who once sported high heels and money as the source of her power and self-esteem, offers readers a beautiful garment of praise to God who faithfully raised her from the ashes of a failed life in center court.
Author and speaker Dr. Siohvaughn Funches’ You Gotta Let God Finish!, which originated as a life-changing message God once spoke to her despairing and confused heart, released as her second inspirational book, Oct. 2018. Funches hopes the book’s 188 pages will act as a powerful healing balm to deliver readers from the ledge of despair and brokenness—where she once lived—to renewed faith in a God who finishes what He starts.
“God came to restore my worth, removing every lie ever told me through the mouth of man and the media,” Funches says. “When it comes down to it, no one can speak on our worth, because it cannot be measured. My worth, and yours, is priceless!”
Throughout the book, Funches administers biblical comfort to the frustrated, confused and those readers who question God’s love and ability to set them free, like she once did. “My friend, the truth is that I know hardships all too well, and have become acquainted with the process and pains of letting God finish. I know well the weight of waiting on the promise of God to manifest. I have danced with despair, entertained doubt, and confessed with tear-filled eyes ‘I give up!‘” she admits.
“God used the lives of many men and women throughout the Bible to reveal His heart and His ways to me so I wouldn’t be burdened. All of these people’s lives are good examples, but the greatest is the example of the life of God Himself as He walked it out here on the earth as Jesus,” Funches says. “Then He began to minister to me about my own life, and had me look back over times when I let Him finish and the rewards I received for doing so. I know it will help transform and equip you to attain all that God has promised.”
She also discusses the healing she experienced from God after suffering from years of abuse. “I am healed! My mind, emotions, heart, and soul have been healed from years of abuse from someone I loved deeply. God gave me beauty for those ashes, healed my heart, and even blessed me to love again!” Funches concludes.
Funches briefly mentions her heated, decade-long public breakup with who used to be one of professional sport’s most celebrated athletes in You Gotta Let God Finish as a testimony of God’s faithfulness.

It looks like Atlanta may still be in the running for Amazon’s second world headquarters after all. A new report from the Wall Street Journal says that Amazon’s HQ2 will be split evenly between two cities.
The move would mean that each city would have about 25,000 employees each. The news gives life to several leading cities, including Atlanta, which heard with the rest of us last week that the HQ2, at least one of them, would be located in the Virginia area.
Of all the cities vying to become the Amazon HQ2, Atlanta figured it had a leg up on the competition: world class airport, sizeable downtown and entertainment district, affordable housing and MARTA.
But Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and team have been eerily silent on which city they will choose to bring 50,000 jobs to and $5 billion in investment. But now the world’s biggest online retailer has announced that it will have an answer before end of year.
Late-stage negotiations with the New York City-New Jersey area involve more than $7 billion in incentives, the Journal reports.
