She is the wife of Minister Glenn P Banks, who is the best husband on this side of heaven.
She travels across the United States sharing her gift and encouraging thousands. She was a ninth-grade dropout, teenage runaway, mother at sixteen, lived in a battered women’s shelter, battled Crohn’s disease, broken marriages, experienced homelessness and has a true passion for ministering to the hopeless, hurting and helpless especially women, youth and young adults.
Now, at age 53, she is a 8 year Breast cancer Overcomer that walks in divine health and continues to allow her gift to shift her into every promise and every vision that God has given unto her.
In 1990, she started writing poetry; from there she published three books of poetry, two of which were published during the time of her chemo treatments. During that time she recorded a spoken word CD entitled: Poetic Reflections, a poetic journey. Rosalind uses the phrase, Poetic because she has never called herself a poet. She shares how she started writing poetry in 1990, when she woke up at 3:45am and wrote her first poem entitled: He’ll Do It Again. Afterwards, she would continue to write in wee hours of the morning. In fifteen to twenty minutes, she would write three pages of poetry, almost as if she is a secretary taking notations. A prophetic, poetic outpouring that lands on paper. Never having taken any poetry classes, nor had she studied any famous poets. It is a God- given gift that has saved her life, touched the lives of thousands and encouraged every reader.view less
