The day Ellen Whitfield's grandma died beneath the old oak tree was the day Ellen lost her zest for life. If Ellen's mother had her way, that tree would be in the chipper. But Ellen couldn't let that happen. That tree is the place she learned about life, love, and God. It is where she sat with her Grandma for endless hours. Now, the tree is both a haunting memory and a comfort blanket - Ellen still turns to it when things go wrong. And there's a lot going wrong - Ellen's life is spiraling out of control. Her mother has threatened to kick her out of the house if she does not find a job. After another heated confrontation with her mother, Ellen returns to her grandma's favorite tree in search of answers - and hope. What she finds there astonishes her, but it also restores her faith in ways she didn't think possible. Though she is going through the worst in life, she leaves that oak tree transformed - knowing that if she keeps her faith, she will always be taken care of and the people she loves will never leave.
