Rena Groot is an author who writes for the searchers, the broken-hearted, the dreamers, the ones who love to be inspired, the ones who need encouragement, and the ones who’ve faced sorrow but still dare to believe in beauty. Her books span several genres: historical fiction rooted in the grit and grace of pioneer life, a contemporary story of betrayal and healing, a journal that walks gently with the wounded, a journal that celebrates the wonder of a baby, as well as a child’s book where a bunny’s imagination runs wild. Each story is crafted with a purpose: to whisper truth, stir courage, and reflect the unwavering love of God.
From the rugged paths of the Oregon Trail to the final days of a broken world, Rena's books explore what it means to hope again after heartbreak, to choose forgiveness over revenge, and to trust God when the road ahead is uncertain. Her characters sometimes wrestle with heartache, hope, and the pursuit of God. Her words are woven to remind readers: beauty can rise from brokenness, and no story is beyond redemption. Rena writes with raw honesty, emotional depth, and unapologetic courage. Her work isn’t just storytelling. It’s truth-telling. It challenges, provokes, and heals. Rena writes to stir the imagination, one heartfelt story at a time.
She also offers a Facebrook group called Broken to Beautiful, a safe place for women to find encouragement, insights, hope and rest
