Making Heaven My Home is an extremely powerful story of strength and over coming obstacles. The book is very well written, suitable for high school and up. It is about your Faith taking you places you are unsure of. When Raina tells her story, it keeps you on edge while rooting for her. I recommend this book. It is a good read, especially for anyone that may be living with emotional pain. Berni

5.0 out of 5 stars,  Exposure Brings Healing

I sat down on a Friday night and read this book cover to cover within three hours! Growing up in church, I’ve seen most everything, and this book brings such a poignant view of the “other side” of church regarding the sinful nature of God’s creation. Hearing the story of redemption and forgiveness brings back the main theme of God’s kingdom regardless how we flawed humans get in the way. Thank you, MJ, for the obedience to the call to expose the things that need to be exposed so that true healing can occur. Jocelyn

5.0 out of 5 stars,  POWERFUL!!

The storyline is consistent and flows, and the author’s use of descriptive words is perfection!” [She] definitely has a gift for writing and brilliantly allowing the reader to see, feel, and relate. This is truly a MASTERPIECE, it’s very descriptive, detailed, and personal. We all have a story, the author expresses that regardless the struggle or what your story is, it needs to be heard, it’s not only healing for yourself, but for others. No matter what, GOD will always be with you, HE will see you through! Definitely one to add to your MASTER collection! Job well done, Author MJ! A. Russell, Global Author Award Recipient

5.0 out of 5 stars, An inspirational story for anyone on a spiritual journey of turning trials into triumph!

“Raina, a young girl raised in the faith, has a strong sense of right and wrong as well as of who she is and who she is not. She is a dreamer with many aspirations and ideas of how her life will play out and the wonderful things God has in store. She loves the Lord and her convictions are absolute. She trusts God above all, and she is taught to trust her elders in respect and obedience to the God she serves; however, at times her spiritual intuition pulls at her thoughts, questioning the motives behind the behaviors of certain trusted individuals. To her devastation, she later learns she was spot on with her internal judgments when her life is shattered by the actions of one person the entire church community trusts with their souls. MHMH bravely and honestly brings the travesty of “church hurt” to the forefront. Raina turns her anger towards God for pain inflicted by people, even worse, trusted individuals, including those in positions of authority. MHMH is an inspirational attestation of how God transforms Raina’s most painful tragedies into her greatest testimonies.” S. Faith Davis

5.0 out of 5 stars, This Book Could Be A Movie

“Making Heaven My Home is ABSOLUTELY CAPTIVATING and BEAUTIFULLY written. I did not want to stop reading it; it is so engaging! I laughed, cried, and felt many different emotions. I felt as I was standing right beside Raina Reonne watching her movie instead of reading a book . . . MHMH is so descriptive, engaging, and gripping. It has many interesting and exciting twists and turns. MHMH is RIVETING. It will have you at the edge of your seat waiting to find out what happens next. As someone who has gone through abuse and unjust treatment from others . . . I can attest that reading MHMH will help you. It will shine a bright light into your situation, and it will encourage you to get past the pain . . . to turn your life and heart over to God, [to] TRUST Him knowing that He will give you the VICTORY over whatever type of abuse you have had to endure because of others’ evil, selfish, and destructive behaviors. It will help you not to blame God, but to turn to Him [knowing] that His grace will heal you [and that] He will never hurt you. MHMH will inspire you to turn a tragic situation into a BEAUTIFUL, PEACEFUL life. Giving your HEART and LIFE to GOD is the only way to move forward. He is the answer to a fulfilling and purposeful life. [MHMH assures you that] YOU can do it with GOD.”

This book is very well written and it’s raw and vivid depictions about Raina’s life makes this character’s journey very relatable to anyone who has experienced church hurt on any level. Raina’s road to victory and redemption gives hope to anyone who may be still dealing with the sting of their hurt. It shows that through faith and trust in God and his Word that healing is available in the “Letting go and letting God!” God makes All things beautiful!
