"When grace goes digital, miracles get an upgrade."
When Sarah Parker drops her tech-obsessed teenagers at her mother's house for six months of emergency childcare, Grammy Rose Bennett knows she's in for a challenge. Armed with her late husband's Bible, a prayer warrior support squad, and more faith than tech-savvy, she's determined to help her grandchildren find their spiritual footing. But between Jack's mission to optimize everything (including prayer) and Maddie's determination to make faith go viral, traditional Christianity is about to get a holy upgrade.
As gaming algorithms meet grace, and social media merges with salvation, something unexpected begins to grow in Grammy's carefully tended garden. Through martial arts lessons that teach more than discipline, cooking classes that serve up love with every recipe, and a church community willing to embrace change, the Bennett family discovers that faith isn't about fitting into someone else's pattern - it's about letting God's light shine through your own unique design. Even if that design includes blessed bandwidth and sacred hashtags.
My goal is to bring a positive view of life experiences in my writing. Born and raised in Washington, D.C., I grew up surrounded by the nation's capital's vibrant culture and diverse communities. My teenage years were spent in Maryland, where I sincerely appreciated the unique blend of urban and suburban life.
From a young age, I was known for my shy and quiet demeanor, often finding solace in my thoughts and observations. This reflective nature led me to develop a keen interest in people, particularly in the wisdom and experiences of older adults. I spent countless hours in the company of elders, listening to their stories and learning from their perspectives.
This early exposure to intergenerational interactions instilled in me a profound respect for the lessons that can be understood by those who have lived through different times.
My journey took a significant turn when I joined the Army and served in Desert Storm. The experiences I gained during my military service were transformative, teaching me about resilience, teamwork, and the complexities of human nature. The discipline and perspective I acquired in the Army have been invaluable in shaping my worldview and approach to writing.
