About My Book

Victoria has always known how to hear God’s voice. She’s built her life around serving Him, faithfully following the teachings of The Ministry, a group she believes is doing heaven’s work on earth.

But when whispers of abuse begin to echo through the ranks and the man she planned to marry becomes distant, Victoria is forced to confront cracks in the perfect image she’s clung to. Are these just attacks from the outside—or is something truly wrong within the group she’s trusted for so long?

As she unearths a long-buried truth about her late mentor, Victoria finds herself at a crossroads. Staying silent would protect her position. Speaking out could cost everything.

In this compelling and deeply personal debut, Beth Sage explores the quiet devastation of spiritual abuse and the power of truth to set us free. By Their Fruits is a moving novel about unlearning control, reclaiming faith, and learning to listen for God’s voice—after the wolves have spoken in His name.

For anyone who has questioned what they were taught in the name of God, this is a story of freedom, forgiveness, and fierce hope.
