Publisher's Summary

One woman's fight to provide hope for the hopeless...

Seven ex-cons who changed her heart forever…

For Brenda Spahn, entrepreneur and businesswoman, wealth was a lifestyle - until a brush with the law threatened to send her to prison. In those dark moments, Brenda made a promise to God.

Spared incarceration, a renewed Brenda glimpsed into the lives of women serving time in one of the worst places in America - the JuliaTutwiler Prison for Women in Wetumpka, Alabama. What she saw prompted a God-inspired vision.

With a heart to help and a will that couldn't be crushed, Brenda fought the system and overcame tremendous obstacles to take ex-cons into her home and help them navigate the alien world of life on the outside.

This is the story of Brenda's journey from rags to riches to redemption. It's the story of the first unlikely year of her "Whole Way House" and of the extraordinary lives of the first seven women who came to call her "Miss Brenda". It's a story that testifies to the power of faith and how God changes hearts every day.

Good without being too preachy

Overall a very inspiring story - and proof that one person can make a difference.
It’s especially encouraging to see a person who has a lot stop, take stock, and change direction. Her friends abandoned her, but in the end that’s not a surprise. The difference Brenda has made in the lives of so many women is amazing.
The work is faith based, and while that aspect is not of interest to me, and can often turn me off a book, I appreciate the role here, and it did not overtake the story. I still wanted to listen.
