Before the Pressing, There Was the Shaking
Coming October 17, 2026
"...that those things which cannot be shaken may remain." — Hebrews 12:27
Some seasons don't break you all at once. They shake you. They loosen what you thought was solid, pull at the ground under your feet, and leave you wondering whether anything in your life will still be standing when it's over.
That's where my story begins.
The Shaking is Book One of The Pressing: A Testimony of Deliverance from a Life Born in Darkness. It's my memoir, but more than that, it's my witness. I wrote it for the woman who has been holding herself together in public and coming apart in private. For the one sitting in the pew who feels unseen. For the one who has been told to "get over it" when she hasn't even been allowed to name it yet.
I won't pretend the shaking was gentle. But I've learned that God doesn't shake us to destroy us. He shakes us so that what was never meant to stay can finally fall away, and what He planted in us can remain.
What you'll find inside
Each chapter opens with Scripture and walks you through a season of my life in my own words. Then I turn to you directly, because this book isn't just my story; it's an invitation. You'll find reflection prompts to help you sit honestly with your own healing, and every chapter closes in prayer.
This is only the beginning
The Shaking is followed by The Beating and The Pressing. Together, they tell the story of a life that should have ended in darkness and was carried, season by season, into purpose.
If you are in your shaking right now, hear me: it is not the end of your story. You will not miscarry your purpose.
The Shaking releases Saturday, October 17. Mark your calendar, and sign up below to get the link the moment it's live.
A NEW PLATFORM. THE SAME GOD-GIVEN PURPOSE.
What’s Lying Dormant in You?
Hosted by Stephanie D. Henry | Author • Speaker • Visionary
We’re transitioning to Zencastr!
Growth sometimes requires us to embrace new beginnings, and we’re excited to announce that What’s Lying Dormant in You? is moving to Zencastr, a new platform for the next chapter of our podcast journey.
Our platform may be changing, but our mission remains the same: to create a space for authentic conversations, spiritual awakening, healing, deliverance, and discovering the purpose God placed within each of us.
When you see yourself, what beautiful thing do you really see?
There is more within you than what you’ve experienced, more to your story than what you’ve survived, and more to your purpose than what you’ve already discovered.
As we enter this new season, prepare for deeper conversations, powerful testimonies, biblical encouragement, and moments that challenge you to confront what has been lying dormant within you.
THE PLATFORM IS CHANGING, BUT THE ASSIGNMENT REMAINS!
Stay connected as we prepare to bring you new episodes on Zencastr.
Give God Your YES!
With faith and purpose,
Stephanie D. Henry

New platform. New season. Greater purpose.
Purpose Driven to Break Generational Curses — For My Children
Knowing you are different—and learning to embrace that difference as God reveals who you are—is a sacred gift. There was a time I didn’t understand it. But as God began healing my innermost being, something ignited within me—a holy flame that stirred a deeper desire for His will over my own.
My journey became bigger than me.
It became about legacy.
About freedom.
About ensuring my children inherit purpose, not pain.
I stand committed to breaking every generational curse, choosing healing over silence, and building a home rooted in God’s love—one they can always return to, whole and unafraid.
The Purpose Is The Passion
A faith-centered journey of healing, obedience, and becoming — for women who know there is more inside them than their past could contain.
You were not delayed.
You were not denied.
And what God placed inside you was never meant to be lost.
Through seasons of brokenness, uncertainty, and transition, I Will Not Miscarry My Purpose is a testimony of what happens when a woman chooses obedience over comfort, faith over fear, and purpose over survival.
This book is for the woman who:
- feels called but unsure where to begin
- has survived loss, separation, or delay
- is stepping out of familiarity into the unknown
- knows God is asking her for more
Your story isn’t ending — it’s being established.
Your purpose is still alive.
👉 [Get the Book] 👉 [Begin the Journey
I write for the individual who has spent most of their life standing in someone else’s shadow — unsure of their worth, uncertain of their voice, and disconnected from who God says they are.
I write for the one who has experienced molestation and has carried the weight of silence — afraid to speak out because you didn’t want to tear your family apart, afraid of judgment, or fearful of what others might think. This book honors your pain without forcing your pace. Your story matters, and your healing does not have to be hidden.
I write for the person who knows there is a fire burning deep within them — a calling that refuses to be extinguished — yet finds themselves constantly pouring into others, serving, helping, and holding everyone else together while neglecting their own becoming.
I write for the one who was told they would never amount to anything.
For the one who learned to survive by pleasing others.
For the one who put their dreams, their voice, and their needs on the back burner just to keep the peace.
And I write for the person who longs to love — but first needs God to teach them how to love themselves.
Because before you can truly love anyone else, you must learn to see yourself the way God sees you: whole, chosen, worthy, and deeply intentional.
This book is an invitation to step out of hiding.
To stop shrinking.
To stop surviving.
And to finally allow God to lead you into healing, identity, and purpose — without fear, without shame, and without apology.
