It all began one late afternoon when Yelena Ruidoso crawled her little five- or six-year-old body on the kitchen floor to escape the person molesting her. She managed to get away by telling him she needed to go to the bathroom. It wasn't until years later, at a women's conference, as she told her story, that she became compelled to write about it.

In Rescued by the Light, Ruidoso tells about her childhood, the abuse she suffered, and how she saw a light that made her wonder if there was something bigger than this world that could help her. She shares how the Lord rescued her again and again throughout her life and offered her grace more times than she can count.

Ruidoso describes a life of hope in a way only God could perpetuate, including miracles that happened throughout. She has passion to share the word of God and the blessings he still performs in the world today.
