Verron Thornton released her new book Get Up Girl Youve Been Sitting Too Long through publishing powerhouse, Xulon Press. Thornton, who makes her home in Dallas, is planning a 15 city book tour to be held at some of the countries finest hotels.

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) January 23, 2004 --Verron Thornton founder of Verron Thornton Ministries released her new book Get Up Girl Youve Been Sitting Too Long through publishing powerhouse, Xulon Press. The book retails for $14.99 in the inspirational section of major booksellers and is available online through amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com.

The book outlines Thorntons amazing story that is wrought with messages of triumph over her personal struggles. The book also reflects Thorntons experiences in pursuing her lifes purpose," Thornton remarks. She candidly accounts the building of her powerful healing ministry, the vigorous 3-year theology program she attends, raising her teenage son and the challenges she has overcome and continues to face as a woman of God.

Thornton admits she had never considered full time ministry, although her early ministry activities includes a 2-year stint as the Overseer of Prison Ministry at San Quentin Prison (home of the infamous Charles Manson). Thornton believes the 3-year physical recovery she endured because of her illness was the divine intervention she needed to forge a different path for her life.

Thornton, who makes her home in Dallas, is planning a 15 city book tour and has coordinated book signings to be held at some of the countries most elegant hotels including the Adolphus in Dallas, the Swissotel in Atlanta and the Park Hyatt in Chicago to host the book signings. Thornton says the book signings will be orchestrated as intimate breakfast and discussions groups giving her the opportunity to connect with would-be readers on a personal level.

Xulon Press, Thorntons publisher, is known world wide for publishing powerful and well-read Christian books. Xulon is the largest Christian book publisher in the world and is a member of the Christian Booksellers Association (CBA) and Evangelical Christian Publishers Association (ECPA).

Xulons continued commitment to providing only top quality Christian works includes Thorntons recent release, as well as, other spiritual treasures like A Miraculous Power-Filled Life by Brenda Minor, A Time to Dance by Ella Sailor and the critically reviewed After The Mistake, Then What? written by Rodney Roberston.

Thornton remarked My story is a journey that I want to share with others who find themselves purposeless and without answers to deeply burning questions. We all have a purpose -- no one is without a gift. But we often stray or even fail to realize our purpose and end up spending our lives walking in darkness. My journey was written to help shed light. I tell my story as a witness to His goodness and to be a small candle for those in need."
