The Real Ones Still Pray — Book Release Experience

An evening for the chosen, the raw, and the redeemed.

Join us for a powerful, purpose-filled celebration as we release The Real Ones Still Pray — a book for those who’ve been through it, grown through it, and are still standing in faith. Whether you’re healed, healing, or somewhere in between — this space was created for YOU.

This isn’t your typical book launch — it’s an experience, and we’ve curated two unique ways for you to be part of it:


🔥 VIP Experience (Limited Availability)

For the ones who like to move with intention and a little luxury.

  • Private book signing with the author
  • Curated savory bites and dessert experience
  • Elevated atmosphere and seating
  • Special gift
  • All general admission perks included

General Admission

For the real ones who just wanna show up, feel the vibe, and celebrate.

  • Access to the full event experience
  • Music by DJ Ty of Rocthaspot Events
  • Access to author remarks and reflections
  • Opportunities to purchase a signed copy of the book onsite

Note: Food and Private Signing Experience are NOT included with General Admission.


Why You Should Come

This is more than a book — it’s a call to the Real Ones. The ones who are tired of pretending. The ones who’ve prayed through pain, betrayal, disappointment, transition — and came out stronger.

We’re building a space that honors the journey. Expect music, inspiration, connection, healing, and impact — all in one unforgettable night.


What to Expect:
  • Faith-filled storytelling
  • Raw, relatable moments
  • Music, energy & connection
  • A celebration of healing, identity, and purpose

Plus, we’re giving back — a portion of proceeds will support The Women’s Center of Raleigh and Dream Upward Foundation, empowering women and youth in our community.
