From Surviving to Living

From Surviving to Living is Holly Bot’s honest testimony of a life unraveled and a soul restored. From her first day behind bars to the long years of struggle and growth that followed, she traces the path of broken choices, deep regret, and the surprising mercy of God that met her in the hardest places.

Part prison memoir, part spiritual journey, this book wrestles with shame, identity, and the slow work of grace that turns mere survival into real life. Holly does not minimize her failures or the harm they caused, but she bears witness to the God who redeems even what seems beyond repair.

Raw and redemptive, From Surviving to Living is for readers who believe in second chances—or who long to believe they might still be possible.
