What happens when the #FirstLady of the church is depressed? Who can she turn too while people whisper and she’s finding it hard to worship? Where can she go when society has labeled her as strong and now she can’t show weakness?
I’m Not Crazy speaks to depression in the church. It’s not always prayer, speaking in tongue and oil because sometimes you need all those things plus a therapist and medicine.
Stop with the stigma of, he/she is crazy. Stop labeling yourself as crazy. Truth is, you’re not crazy, but you may be depressed.
LaKisha Johnson is an author of thirty Christian Fiction novels, devotionals and journals. She writes from her heart, as she hopes the messages, on the pages, will relate to every reader. Ask her and she’ll tell you, ”It’s not just writing, its ministry.”
Over the course of her career, she’s won the 2018 Drunken Druid Book of the Year Award for her book, The Forgotten Wife, 2019 Top Shelf Christian Fiction Book of the Year for Dear God: Hear my Prayer, 2020 Distinguished Authors Guild Award for her book, I’m Not Crazy and was a 2020 TopShelf Women’s Fiction Finalist for her book, When the Vows Break.
In addition to being a self-published author, she’s also a wife of 22 years, mother of 2, Asst. Pastor of Macedonia MB Church in Hollywood, MS; Sr. Business Analyst with FedEx, Devotional Blogger and more. She’s a college graduate with 2 Associate Degrees in IT and a Bachelor of Science in Bible.
LaKisha writes from the heart, and this is why she doesn’t take the credit for what God does. If you were to strip away everything, you’d see that Lakisha is simply a woman who boldly, unapologetically and gladly loves and works for God.

Whoa now this is some real stuff, something we don’t think of in our church.
