Midlothian, TX, February 19, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Martha Oberhousen, a devout Christian who was born and raised in Mississippi, has completed her new book, “Mississippi Medicine Woman”: a compelling story of a young woman who sets out with her grandmother to help bring healing and comfort to those in need.

“This book is fiction; however, it is based on adventures in the life of a young girl who was privileged to ride along on exciting trips with her very special grandmother who helped others,” writes Oberhousen. “It takes place in rural Mississippi in horse and buggy days. Many of the characters in the stories are real, and others are only real in [my] imagination. It is hoped that this book might open the windows of the minds of young readers about the importance of God, family, and love for others.”

Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Martha Oberhousen’s new book is inspired by the stories her mother told her about the adventures of her childhood, including riding alongside her grandmother who helped anyone needing medical assistance in her rural community. Deeply personal and character-driven, “Mississippi Medicine Woman” will resonate with readers from all walks of life, inspiring them to not only love God but their own neighbors as themselves.

Readers can purchase “Mississippi Medicine Woman” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
