Synopses & Reviews
Steppin' Out is a collection of heartfelt, thought-provoking poems written by the artist known as Madgesdiq. This one-time basketball star, born Antoine Stoudamire, has since been reborn and now finds himself on a spiritual journey to find freedom and truth.
Following his heart, this former athlete chose to walk away from the game he loved in order to pursue his passion for writing and music. In an attempt to shed his former identity, he is presented with many obstacles and challenges that must be overcome in order that he may grow into the person the Most High has created him to be...a vessel, unlimited and free.
These 36 poems reflect the pain, the struggle, the optimism and the hope of the artist and not only serve as a catharsis for the author but are also a true source of inspiration for others as well.
In this, his debut book, Madgesdiq addresses topics such as love, faith, passion and purpose as he pursues his dream of freeing himself and others from life’s captivities through the power of the spoken word.
