Kisses from Katie: A Story of Relentless Love and Redemption

By Beth Clark, Katie Davis, Katie Davis Majors

Book Overview

A New York Times bestselling memoir, this inspiring true story follows eighteen-year-old Katie Davis Majors as she leaves her comfortable life in Nashville to become the adoptive mother of thirteen girls in Uganda.

At the height of her senior year--class president, homecoming queen, and college-bound--Katie Davis felt called to something radically different. During a Christmas mission trip to Uganda, her heart was transformed by the poverty and spiritual hunger she witnessed. What began as a short-term visit became a lifelong commitment.

Defying expectations and giving up her plans for college, relationships, and familiarity, Katie returned to Uganda to serve. Over time, she adopted thirteen daughters and founded Amazima Ministries, an organization that provides education, food, and discipleship to hundreds of children. Through faith, perseverance, and an unwavering belief in God's calling, Katie built a family and a ministry from the ground up.

With honesty and heartfelt storytelling, this memoir chronicles Katie's journey of obedience, sacrifice, and radical love as she learns to trust Jesus in the face of impossible circumstances. Kisses from Katie challenges you to live boldly, love generously, and follow God wherever He leads.

God's Love in Action.

I loved this book. It almost made me pack up and join her! She eats, sleeps, breathes the love of Christ. Her influence in the village is astounding. And Christ is keeping His promises and continues to PROVIDE! God bless her, her children and her ministry.

Best book I have ever read!

I have read this book multiple times. Each time I come away encouraged, inspired and challenged. Katie Davis shares her heart, her love of Jesus, and the struggles she faces living a life totally devoted to Christ. I purchased multiple copies of this book and give them away to friends and family. If your faith needs to be rekindled, this book is a must read. Readers will not be disappointed.

Life-Changer

I've read this book twice and each time it's recked me. She takes away any excuse we might have to not follow God's voice. In a very humble and real way she lives out the Gosple and her journey encourages us to do the same.
