Scattered, Yet Whole
A Palestinian American Christian Woman's Journey Through Love, Loss, and Belonging. Published in November, 2025
Having witnessed the heartbreak of displacement and life in the diaspora, as well as the quiet grace of survival-last of which was enduring the first month of the invasion of Kuwait and her escape to Jordan with a total stranger-Miranda writes with the insight of someone who has lived history from within it. Her voice carries both humor and compassion, weaving moments of laughter amid loss and hope amid hardship.
Through her lifelong devotion to writing, Miranda seeks to bridge cultures and awaken empathy, illuminating the truth, dignity, and shared humanity that endure even in the face of tragedy. She now resides in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where she continues to write, reflect, and inspire.
