Smith, a retired corporate professional who served more than forty-one years in the corporate world, earning numerous awards and recognitions for her commitment to excellence, including a proclamation from the Office of the Mayor honoring her service.

Dr. Linda W. Smith shares, “Leah discovers love. It is new to her because she has only known responsibility all her life. Heavy responsibility builds her up and makes her feel good about herself. However, in doing so, she becomes a little self-righteous, with no room for forgiveness. She finds it easy to fight against hate and even helps others overcome such adversity when faced with the phenomenon. However, when faced with having to forgive, she finds herself in unknown territory. Her only redeeming prospect is to rely on revelation from God.
Brett knows about love and wears it like a badge. He believes in it wholeheartedly. Unlike Leah, Brett ignores hate because he considers it trivia. He does not think it warrants his attention. On the other hand, he seeks forgiveness with his whole heart. Forgiveness becomes his major goal in life. In doing so, he, too, learns a valuable lesson about divine forgiveness.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Dr. Linda W. Smith’s new book offers readers a thoughtful narrative that explores the realities of love, betrayal, resentment, and redemption while highlighting the strength that faith and forgiveness can bring to life’s most difficult circumstances.
