Debra Gaskill Author of Single & Sublime is our St. Cloud FL Business Spotlight in July 2023. Jeanine Corcoran, broker for Corcoran Connect interviews Debra in her St. Cloud office.
Jeanine asked Debra how long she has been an Author. She responded and said she has been writing since college and that it has always been a passion of hers. Debra said she also journals on a daily basis and can look up anything that had happened in her past. She said she has always blogged and had a newsletter from time to time.
Debra said that finally last year she sat down and wrote her first book. Her first book is titled “Healing From Heaven”. She said the tagline is “the same medicine that gets you healed, keeps you healed”. Debra stated that this is a faith-based book. The reason she wrote is because she has had different illnesses and sicknesses that have cropped up. If she had not had divine intervention, she would not be sitting here with Jeanine today doing this interview.
Debra expressed to Jeanine that sometimes a doctor can only take you so far. She stated that she is a strong proponent of the Bible and there is so much that teaches us that God wants us well. Jeanine agreed. Debra said there is no sickness in Heaven, and it is God’s desire that there be no sickness on Earth. Healing From Heaven is 8 modern-day parables of times when Debra was handed a very negative report and how she came out of them each time.
Now, both Jeanine and Debra moved to her most recent publication which came out at the beginning of June, “Single & Sublime”. It’s about healing the past, making wise choices, and living a beautiful life. Debra said she often asks people if they have ever made a bad relationship choice. She said most people respond and say of course I have.
Debra said there is a thing about making a bad relationship choice and then there’s a thing about making another one, and another one, and before you know it your life has been derailed for decades. She talks about even “A List” actresses who can date anybody they want and have millions of dollars have to go back into their past and ask why I keep dating the wrong guy, why do I keep marrying the wrong person and why do I keep going into the same type of unhealthy relationship.
Debra said after a long-term marriage and a long-term relationship that was unhealthy, she was the common denominator she asked herself what happened here and had to go back to her childhood to figure it out. Jeanine then asked Debra to tell the audience a little bit more about herself. She said she is a very passionate person who is consumed with getting the word of God out there. Debra is a Bible teacher and has been a missionary and she has lived overseas and taught in Bible schools before.
Debra believes that people should not struggle through life having to go from one crisis to another. She said that the Bible is very clear that Jesus came so we could have an abundant life. She said that most of her passion is taking the word of God and making it applicable to the situations people find themselves in today.
Debra’s desire is to bring the word of hope, encouragement, and healing, and to help people live a more productive and abundant life. Jeanine added that you can’t do it without faith and Debra agreed that is the first step.
Jeanine asked Debra how people can reach her, here are her channels.
