Where my story meets yours
Modern Day Ruth
In 2005, Melinda Mitchell's life shattered when a home invasion took her husband Tim's life. In the aftermath of unimaginable tragedy, she faced a choice that would define her future: bitterness or forgiveness.
This powerful memoir traces Melinda's journey from devastating loss to unexpected redemption—a real-life Ruth story of a widow who clung to faith when everything was stripped away. Through raw honesty and biblical insight, she shares how God's chesed (unfailing love) carried her through grief, led her to forgive the unforgivable, and ultimately brought her to a new chapter she never expected.
Whether you're walking through your own season of loss, struggling to forgive, or simply need to be reminded that God writes beautiful stories from broken places, Modern Day Ruth will meet you there.
