EASTVALE, CA - May 24, 2025 - Marquis Who's Who Honored Listee and spiritual leader Marco A. Benavides announces the release of his transformative debut book, "Experiencing God's Love Through the Gifts and Healing Powers of the Holy Spirit: A Personal Story of Overcoming Adversity Through Love, Faith and Hope."


A businessman in a suit strategically plays chess with oversized bronze pieces, balancing a piggy bank and miniature trees on a chessboard made of stacked coins, symbolizing financial strategy and growth amidst digital financial icons.

This compelling narrative chronicles Benavides' courageous journey overcoming PTSD, depression, bipolar disorder, and anxiety through unwavering faith and divine guidance. As CEO and Founder of Holy Spirit Ministry Foundation, Benavides shares his testimony to extend support to individuals battling mental health challenges, with special focus on Veterans and their families contending with PTSD, depression, anxiety, and self-harm ideation.


"In the depths of adversity, I discovered a path to spiritual rebirth," shares Benavides. "Through the tumultuous storms of life, I sought solace in the guiding light of the divine, unlocking newfound strength that transcended all earthly afflictions."


The book serves as a roadmap to resilience and renewal, resonating with the Holy Spirit Ministry Foundation's mission of supporting new ministries, building church communities, and reaching out to those in need. Readers will find inspiration, comfort, and practical guidance for their own spiritual journeys.
