Defeat To Reign

Isaiah 41:9-10
His promise. His peace. His victory, given to us.
God turns ashes to glory, defeat to reign.
His power shines through us, making us new.
Strong. Powerful. A conqueror.


There is no easy way to talk about loss, abuse, and trauma. Everyone is different and each method of grieving varies from person to person.


In Defeat to Reign, Salena traverses her own life experiences in these areas as well as her struggle in finding faith and the process of healing. With raw honesty, she willingly shares her stories and trials, providing pieces of wisdom to readers with similar stories. Although no one's experience and pain are the same, Salena shows through her journey that there's always a path to the other side of the hurt.


Your story and past no longer have to hold you back or define your life. The hope of this book is that you will also find the strength and courage to rise up and overcome your circumstances.
