Lakeland, FL – 2025 – When faith is tested by fire, many fall, but others rise with a message that can’t be snuffed out. Pastor William J. Boss proudly announces the publication of ‘While on Bended Knees’, an honest and incredibly inspirational memoir that details how a man’s near-death experience was the basis for the greatest victory of his ministry.
In 2011, while presiding at the altar, pastor Boss was shot in the head from point-blank distance. In spite of all odds, he was able to survive, with the bullet lodged in his brain til today. In lieu of being defined only by his pain, the man turned his pain into a call to forgiveness, healing, and a spirit of perseverance. While at Bended Knees is a journey into that terrifying moment and the path that followed, and reveals how a life that was close to ending became an instrument for God’s glory.
This enlightening book goes beyond the boundaries of biography. It’s a guide to anyone who has wondered: Why do bad events happen to godly people? Through scripture, personal stories, and hard-earned wisdom, Pastor Boss encourages readers to consider how faith is not able to stop storms, but gives us the ability to weather and conquer them.
From his first call to the ministry, through opposition and racism, struggles with the church, and personal tragedies, Pastor Boss shows the price of leadership and the tenacity needed to serve. His words will remind people that being on “bended knees” in prayer can turn the despair of life into a destiny.
