Far From Home

Explore the intersection between culture, identity, and faith from an earthly immigrant who gained a spiritual perspective.

Born and raised in a Christian home in India, Mabel came to America as a newlywed, confident and equipped to start a new chapter of her life. Instead, she wrestled with her identity and feelings of homesickness. Her desperate search for belonging and purpose brought her to her knees.

God revealed to her that she was not only an earthly immigrant but also a spiritual one, created with a unique calling to impact God's kingdom. Mabel's renewed perspective imbued her with joy and hope, urging her to share her message with others.

By drawing from her personal experiences and examining the lives of biblical heroes, Mabel sheds light on what it means to live as a citizen of heaven on earth. Far from Home will inspire you to embrace your identity as a foreigner on earth, make your home with God, and find community and common purpose with fellow sojourners.

"Mabel Ninan's beautifully written Far from Home serves as a guide to rediscovering our core identity in Christ. It's a message the church desperately needs."

MATTHEW SOERENS, US director of church mobilization and advocacy, World Relief, and coauthor of Welcoming the Stranger and Seeking Refuge
