What was your motivation behind this project? I wrote Detoured to encourage other women who are navigating the often-times bumpy transition from working to staying home with children. When I gave up my teaching career to be home I found that no one was talking about the feelings of loss and loneliness of being home with children- especially after having a career. There are so many feelings that come with this transition, all valid, and I believe that God wants us to take our emotions, questions, and doubts about our ability to handle life at home straight to Him. My hope is that Detoured blesses women and draws them into a closer relationship with Christ as they serve their families and find their worth is not found in a job title or performance, but in Christ alone.
