I Emerged: Don't Call Me Mara

A raw, tender memoir of loss, healing, and discovering joy again through God's faithfulness. Named for the biblical woman who called herself “bitter,” this is the story of how grace rewrote a name — and a life.

“What happens when life gives you every reason to become bitter, but you choose joy instead? Mina Komonibo was named Love by her father. But life would test that name in ways she could never have imagined. This is not a story about pretending that suffering does not hurt. It is about refusing to let suffering have the final word.”

Auntie Mina's Joy Toolbox

A practical biblical guide to choosing joy every day — tools, wisdom, and daily habits for a joy-filled life.

“What if joy isn't something you have to wait for, but something you can intentionally cultivate, even in life's hardest seasons? Joy can coexist with grief, disappointment, uncertainty, and change. The goal is not constant happiness. It is learning how to remain rooted when circumstances are difficult.”
