The Fisherman's Wife by Kaylee Scherer

Synopsis of the book: He followed a call that changed the world. She lived a faith that held it together.

When Simon leaves to follow a traveling teacher, Mira stays behind to hold their home together. With a sick mother, a failing business, and neighbors who call her abandoned, she must find strength in the shadows of someone else's calling.

As tensions rise across Galilee, Mira's quiet life is swept into something far greater, and far more life-altering, than she ever imagined.

✨ My 20th read of 2025 and the 11th read of my summer challenge✨

This novel was everything and more! Beautifully-written, inspirational, and faith-filled! Illustrated through the biblical perspective of Peter's wife, Mira, The Fisherman's Wife is a remarkable reconciliation of the miracles performed by Jesus and the early church ministry.
