Godden Matanga had done the unthinkable, earning him the label of society’s scum. Shunned by the world, he was considered an outcast. His life was once defined by a fateful act of murder, which led to a death sentence. But mercy found him in that death row cell, rewrote the story of his life, and walked with him out of the prison gates to freedom.

Outside the prison, Godden faced an uncertain world with mixed feelings about him. Could a man who had taken a life ever truly reclaim his own?

This powerful story of mercy and second chances explores God’s persistent love and merciful pursuit—a journey of redemption and the freedom that comes with forgiveness.
