“My grandmother could tell a rotten fruit before it looked rotten — and she taught me to watch for the soft place beneath the beautiful surface.”

Follow student journalist Naomi Rahimi‑Ben‑David and the students of Kingdom Heights Academy through five unforgettable years. Behind a school’s confident surface runs a hidden crack — and one chapter of the prophet Hosea at a time, a divided community is pursued, corrected, and slowly made whole.

Each novel takes one chapter of Hosea and turns its ancient wisdom into a modern coming‑of‑age story teens actually want to read — grounded in Relational Integrity™, adolescent development, and the timeless truth of Scripture.
