Tomorrow’s Promise Collection #3: Leaving Yesterday by Kathryn Cushman and Christina Moore is a deeply moving Christian fiction novel that explores themes of redemption, family, and forgiveness. Alisa Stewart’s life is turned upside down when a police car pulls up outside her house, triggering her worst fear: her son, Kurt, has died due to his past addiction. However, the officer is simply following a lead on a crime, and when Kurt calls soon after to tell her he’s entered rehab and found faith, Alisa is overwhelmed with hope. It feels as though her son has been resurrected, and given a second chance at life.
But this new beginning is soon threatened when the officer returns, asking troubling questions about a murder tied to someone from Kurt’s past. As Alisa grapples with the possibility that her son’s old life may not be entirely behind him, she faces an agonising decision: should she protect her son and keep the secret, or should she risk everything in pursuit of the truth, which could destroy the fragile peace they have rebuilt?
Part of the Tomorrow’s Promise collection, Leaving Yesterday combines heartfelt emotion with suspenseful drama. This compelling story is perfect for readers who enjoy Christian fiction with rich themes of second chances, redemption, and the difficult choices that come with healing.
