About the Series
Healing in the Wilderness
A mission born from the wilderness places of life — grief, trauma, and spiritual disorientation — and the unchanging truth that God is present in every one of them.
The Mission
The mission of the Healing in the Wilderness series is to guide readers through seasons of grief, trauma, and spiritual disorientation by grounding them in the unchanging truth of Scripture.
Each book helps believers rediscover their identity in Christ, find language for emotional pain, and experience the steady presence of God in the wilderness places of life.
The Vision
The vision of the series is to equip hurting believers with Christ-centered resources that restore hope, renew identity, strengthen faith, and lead them toward the good works God has prepared for them.
Through compassionate storytelling and biblical clarity, the series seeks to become a trusted companion for anyone walking through difficult seasons.
The Five-Book Journey
The series moves through five essential movements of healing — not as a formula, but as a faithful path walked one step at a time.
Laying down false identities and stepping into who God says you are.
Receiving the relentless mercy of God and finding your place in His family.
Breaking thought patterns that keep us stuck and embracing transformation.
Putting on what God has provided and learning to stand firm.
Stepping out of the wilderness and into the mission God has prepared.
Author & biblical counselor
Mary Batch
Mary Batch is the author of the Healing in the Wilderness series — five books written for believers walking through the hard, disorienting seasons of life that no one prepares you for. As a biblical counselor, she provides Christ‑centered soul care rooted in Scripture, helping individuals navigate grief, trauma, emotional overwhelm, and spiritual confusion with clarity and compassion.
Her writing and counseling are shaped by Scripture, personal experience, and a deep conviction that the wilderness is not a place God abandons His people — it is often where He does His most profound work. She speaks honestly about suffering and equally honestly about the hope and healing she has found in Christ.
Mary’s heart is for the reader and the counselee who feels lost, overlooked, or too broken to be restored. Her message is simple: you are not too far gone. The God who led Israel through the wilderness is the same God who walks with you through yours.
