Shop Presale of Illegal No More: A Journey to Belonging in Christ
What if the very thing you were running from—the silence, the shadows, the storm—was the place God would meet you?
In Illegal No More, Maria Anderson shares her unforgettable story of growing up between two worlds: born in Mexico, raised in rural Kansas, and shaped by the invisible weight of perfectionism, shame, and spiritual longing. From fieldwork under the Kansas sun to terrifying border crossings and a violent marriage unraveling behind closed doors, Maria’s life was marked by fear and striving—until one night in a fog-filled forest, she cried out, “I surrender!”
That moment of total breakdown became the beginning of her breakthrough.
This raw, redemptive memoir traces Maria’s path from outsider to daughter, from fractured to free. Through powerful storytelling and faith-filled reflection, Illegal No More invites readers to:
Find identity beyond immigration status, performance, or pain
Break the chains of perfectionism and shame
Discover the peace that only comes through surrender to Christ
📦 Preorder Includes:
