What happens when God calls you into sacred spaces that tell you you do not belong? Raised with a foundational faith in rural North Carolina, Amy Artis learned early the power of prayer and community. Yet life tested her spirit at every turn. After suffering devastating personal trials, including the heartbreaking loss of a child and profound grief, an undeniable divine calling took root in her heart. Stepping into pastoral ministry meant confronting institutional barriers, theological resistance, and the sting of sacred rejection. Barred from pulpits and questioned in male-dominated spaces, she stood firm, finding strength at Shaw University Divinity School and the spiritual legacy of biblical leaders like Deborah and Junia. I Am Who God Say I Am is a raw, triumphant memoir of resilience, spiritual endurance, and unshakable identity. With profound candor and practical wisdom, Artis provides an empowering roadmap for women navigating leadership, grief, and faith. This is more than one woman's story—it is a clarion call to rise above human limitations and boldly claim the divine purpose God ordained for your life.
