The Endearing Light

Trudy Rendell is preparing to attend college when she receives devastating news. Her mother has terminal brain cancer. As her mother’s primary caregiver, Trudy is naturally overwhelmed. So when her mother’s former client offers to help, Trudy quickly accepts her offer. But there is only one problem: Mary is a believer and Trudy and her stepfather, John, are not.

After her mother passes away, Trudy finds herself immersed in darkness. Without faith in God, friends, ambition, or a purpose, Trudy struggles to endure every day. In the middle of her self-imposed depression, John tells her to leave the only home she has ever known. Without any idea of where she will go next, Trudy drives away. But something is summoning her—a strange sensation she has never felt before. As her journey leads her to the Hope Motel, Trudy soon realizes that her life will never be complete unless it is filled with love, forgiveness, grace, and the faith that God will always be by her side.

The Endearing Light is a story of redemption as a young woman learns to trust her heart and follow a path out of the darkness and into the light of unconditional love.
