A Heartfelt Thank You: The Journey Behind My Memoir
I’m overjoyed to finally share something that has been years in the making—my memoir, FROM HOMELAND TO HEARTLAND: A Long Journey to Believe in God. This book is not just a collection of memories; it’s the story of my personal transformation over the past 40 years. It took four years to write, but it truly began decades ago, in the quiet moments of doubt, discovery, and faith.
Looking back, I am overwhelmed with gratitude. First and foremost, I thank God. It was He who called me to share my story, and it was His presence that gave me strength, day after day. Without His grace and guidance, I would never have had the courage to put pen to paper. His faithfulness sustained me through every word, every edit, every chapter.
I also want to honor the many Bible study teachers who poured wisdom into my life. Through their teaching, I learned how to plant God’s Word in my heart and replace fear and negativity with faith and hope. Their lessons taught me how to view life through the lens of Scripture—and that shift has made all the difference.
To my Life Group, you’ve been a steady source of support, encouragement, and prayer. You reminded me that I wasn’t alone, especially in the moments when writing felt like too much. Your belief in me gave me the courage to keep going.
And to everyone who contributed to the shaping of this book—thank you. Your insights, feedback, and encouragement helped refine my story and bring it to life in ways I couldn’t have done on my own.
This memoir is a testimony of God’s faithfulness, and I hope it encourages anyone who may be on their own journey of faith. If even one person feels seen, understood, or uplifted through these pages, then every step of this long journey was worth it.
With a grateful heart,
