In this beautifully raw and profoundly moving memoir, Nicholas Branch opens his heart to share a true story of a miraculous childhood encounter with God after drowning-and the spiritual journey that unfolded in the years that followed. What began as a near-death experience grew into a life shaped by divine love, healing, and redemption.

The River is more than a story about one miracle; it's a reflection on the many unseen miracles that carry us each day. With honesty and grace, Branch offers hope to readers walking through grief, doubt, or despair-inviting them to rediscover their own connection with God and the daily miracles that shape our healing.
