What if the place that built you wasn't just a house, but an entire way of life rooted in faith, family, and the mountains?
In The House That Built Me, Nina L. Cornett Gosser invites readers deep into the Appalachian Mountains of Eastern Kentucky, where she spent the first eleven years of her life. That time was long enough for her roots to take hold forever. Through vivid storytelling, this moving memoir chronicles her family's journey of survival, love, and resilience in the face of extreme poverty.
Raised in the embrace of the Appalachian hills, Gosser shares the true story of her mother, Nannie Stewart Cornett. Nannie was a fiercely faithful woman who, after being abandoned by her husband, raised twelve children without a source of income. With hard work, grit, and unwavering belief in God's provision, Nannie created a home full of love and strength. From playful childhood mischief to unimaginable loss, the Cornett family's story is a powerful tribute to what it means to be rich in spirit even when poor in circumstance.
This book is perfect for readers who cherish Appalachian memoirs, Christian family stories, and tales of generational legacy. The House That Built Me honors the power of motherhood, rural perseverance, and deep-rooted faith.
Step into a life built not by wealth, but by mountains, memory, and the hand of God.
