✍️ About the Author

Elizabeth Daghfal loves weaving realistic stories that meet you right where your heart needs hope. Sometimes her stories are lighthearted, sometimes more serious, and sometimes they're a bit of a laugh at ourselves. But the one common thread? They’re authentic people trying to figure out how to live life faithfully. Because she knows—sometimes we wear the superhero cape…and sometimes we can’t find our shoes.
