The water didn’t appear overnight. Neither did she.

In Priming the Pump, Susan Johnson Bennett shares a deeply personal memoir of faith, resilience, healing, and becoming. From carrying water as a little girl in rural Daisy, South Carolina, to discovering her voice as a woman of faith, wife, mother, educator, coach, and leader, Susan invites readers into the sacred places where pressure, pain, and purpose meet.

Growing up in a home shaped by love, responsibility, lack, faith, and the complicated weight of her father’s alcoholism, Susan learned early how to listen, adapt, serve, and survive. But survival was never the whole story. Beneath the surface, God was forming something deeper.

Through honest reflections on childhood, family, disappointment, marriage, motherhood, miscarriage, ministry, forgiveness, emotional exhaustion, rest, and restoration, Priming the Pump reveals how life’s hardest seasons often become the very places where God prepares us for what comes next.

This is not a story about pretending the pain did not happen.

It is a story about telling the truth with grace.

It is a story about learning that strength has limits, healing takes courage, forgiveness does not erase memory, and purpose can still rise from places that once felt dry.

With wisdom, warmth, and spiritual depth, Susan reminds readers that the pressure may have been real, but so was the water. The process may have been hard, but the source never dried up.

Priming the Pump is for anyone who has ever felt stuck between where they are and where they believe God is leading them. It is for the woman who has carried too much, the child inside who had to grow up too soon, the leader who is learning to rest, the mother who wants to heal for the next generation, and the believer who needs to be reminded that God can still bring flow from hidden places.

Your pain may have shaped you, but it does not have to own you.

Keep pumping.

The water is coming.

The well still holds water.
