Nneka Crayton Turner is a writer, widow, and woman of faith whose calling is to inspire transformation through words, travel, and testimony. Known for her ability to weave together storytelling and spiritual reflection, Nneka invites readers to pause, reflect, and rediscover who God has called them to be.

Through her work as founder of AGAPE Excursions, a travel agency dedicated to transformational and faith-centered journeys, and through her books in The Becoming Series, she shepherds souls toward clarity, balance, and renewal.

Her debut novel, Becoming Jasmine: The Breaking, is the first in a deeply personal series exploring healing, identity, and redemption. Alongside companion journals and devotionals, the series serves as both a mirror and a guide for anyone seeking God’s restoration in their own story.

When she isn’t writing or leading faith-driven travel experiences, Nneka can be found encouraging others, cherishing her family, and living boldly in obedience to the calling God has spoken over her life — to be an Activator, planting seeds of transformation wherever she goes.

✨ “The Becoming Series is not just something to read — it’s something to live.”

We conjure inspiration through our AGAPE Excursions Collection, a masterpiece of curated books, devotionals, and travel essentials that elevate your journey.

“The truth was, she was burned out—not just tired—soul-tired. She had given everything to everyone: her students, her husband, her church, her kids, her inbox, her image. But somewhere along the way, she lost herself.She couldn’t remember the last time she laughed—not just a polite chuckle, but the kind that bubbles up from the belly and interrupts the air. She couldn’t remember the last time she prayed without falling asleep mid-sentence. The Bible she used to cradle in the mornings now collected dust beneath the mail stack in her nightstand drawer.Something had to give. And deep down, she knew—it had to be her.”

Dear Early Reader,

Thank you—deeply—for your words of encouragement and blessing. Your reflection not only affirms the heart behind Becoming Jasmine, but also reveals how this story is already stirring healing in places I prayed it would reach. It means so much to know that the message resonated with you, especially regarding the silent struggles many men face.

Your insight reminds me why this work matters. It’s not just a book—it’s a mirror, a balm, and a breakthrough waiting to happen for someone who needs to be seen, heard, and set free. I am humbled that God is using this offering to minister in ways I couldn’t have orchestrated on my own.

Thank you for reading with such openness, and for speaking life over this journey. May God multiply the impact just as you’ve prayed—and may He continue to use your voice to uplift others.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Dear Reviewer,

Thank you for such a deeply moving and honest reflection. Your words touched me in the same way you described Becoming Jasmine touching you—like a whisper that lingers long after the final page. I’m humbled and grateful that this book met you where you are and helped give voice to questions so many of us silently carry.

To hear that it offered you permission—to pause, to be vulnerable, to reconnect with God outside of expectation—is everything I prayed this work would do. Becoming Jasmine was born from a place of real healing and obedience, and your testimony confirms that it’s doing exactly what God intended: helping others find their way back to themselves and to Him.

Thank you for showing up for your own journey, and for letting me witness a piece of it. May you continue to grow, heal, and rise—just as you are.

With love and gratitude,

Dear Reader,

Wow—your words made me smile from the soul. Thank you so much for taking a moment in the middle of your day to share how Becoming Jasmine is already grabbing your heart. To know that you didn’t want to stop reading, even while at work, tells me God is using this book to speak right on time—and that means more than I can say.

That scene where Jasmine’s boss tells her she’s slipping? Whew… it was a turning point for her—and your message tells me it’s resonating already as a turning point for readers too. I’m grateful you’re walking with Jasmine, and with me, through this story of rediscovery, surrender, and becoming.

Keep reading—there’s so much more ahead. And I’m honored to be a part of your journey.

With love,

Dear Reader,

Wow—thank you so much for this! Your message made me pause and smile (and say a little prayer of gratitude). The fact that Becoming Jasmine kept you reading all the way until 4:30am means more than you know. I don’t take it lightly when someone offers up their time, attention, or sleep to journey through these pages.

This book was birthed in prayer, tears, and divine timing—and knowing it’s keeping you captivated from the very beginning is confirmation that God is doing exactly what He promised: using Jasmine’s journey to stir something beautiful and honest in others.

Thank you for letting me know you’re on this path. Keep reading. It only gets deeper from here.

And I hope your coffee was strong the next day. ☕💛

With love and gratitude,
