LBW 050: Meet Nicole Coco Phillip, Author of ‘Single, Saved and Bitter,’ Ladybrille Woman of the Month March 2017

Nicole Coco Phillip was serving in her church as a music ministry leader when a scandal rocked her world and sent her tumbling to the ground full force and face flat. At the center of the scandal was Phillip because while she was standing on a weekly basis on the pulpit to lead the music ministry, she was involved in a romantic relationship with one of the pastors of the church, resulting in her being pregnant. What followed, when the secret came out, is what Phillip’s book ‘Single, Saved & Bitter’ is all about. It is a book that helps anyone, especially women going through adversity, to learn how to face their adversities without being bitter. It’s a book about forgiveness, healing, and redemption.
