Motherless Child: Beauty for Ashes - Healing the Wounds Through Letters of Reflection and Forgiveness https://kynsyr.com/
Turning pain into purpose has been one of the hardest — yet most meaningful — journeys of my life. In obedience to God and far outside my comfort zone, I’m sharing a deeply personal project that is dedicated to my beautiful mother and the journey we shared until her passing two years ago.
My prayer is that this book brings comfort, healing, and understanding to anyone who has experienced the loss of a mother, anyone who desires a stronger mother-child relationship, or simply needs encouragement through life’s emotional moments.
What makes this book especially unique is that it is written in letter format, with heartfelt responses from several incredible women and mothers who offer wisdom, compassion, comfort, and perspective on common life experiences.
If my vulnerability can help even one person feel seen, encouraged, or less alone, then this assignment was worth it. I would truly be honored for you to check it out. The book is available through the links below.
Lastly, a heartfelt thank you to the amazing women who collaborated with me on this project. Stephanie Tucker Rhonda Olison Charlene Waddell Shirley Lytle. And special thanks to my wonderful husband, Antuan Kinnard, for his unwavering support, encouragement, patience, and “tech support” every step of the way. I truly could not have done this without you.
Blessings and peace to all: https://kynsyr.com/
