Dr. Delisa Rodgers pulls no punches in this searing debut novel that exposes the brutal realities facing urban education while celebrating the extraordinary educators who refuse to accept that this is just how things are. Through Jasmine Baker's journey from overwhelmed newcomer to transformational leader, readers witness the real-world application of Christian principles in the face of systemic injustice.
This isn't your typical inspirational fiction. This is spiritual warfare on the front lines of America's most challenging schools, where the battle for children's souls is fought daily in classrooms, cafeterias, and counseling sessions. Where trauma-informed care meets the transforming power of Christ. Where restorative justice becomes a practical expression of grace.
