Jeanne Bishop – Jeanne Bishop’s pregnant sister and brother-in-law were killed by a teenager, who was sentenced to life without the possibility of parole. Over time, Jeanne didn’t find healing in that outcome. She has since become a leading advocate for banning the sentence and ensuring that all children have an opportunity for review.
Her memoir Change of Heart: Justice, Mercy, and Making Peace with My Sister’s Killer is a powerful, true story of faith and forgiveness shows that all of us are capable of experiencing the healing and renewal that comes with truly forgiving another. From once wishing that her sister’s killer languished in a cell for the rest of his life, Jeanne now visits him regularly in prison and publicly advocates for his release. Her compelling story offers a better understanding of what it truly means to be a person of faith. Get your copy of Change of Heart here.
