Sandra (Lott) Smith
Author, Speaker, Motivator

I was born and raised in San Antonio, Texas, and am the author of more than 45 books, including The Power of Compassion, Princess Anastasia & the Kingdom of Divulgence, Deep Waters Within, Jeremy’s Journey, Ride the Wind, My Father’s Eyes: Seeing Yourself Through the Father’s Eyes, A Princess in Waiting, and beloved children’s books such as The Sheep That Went Astray, The Wind Has a Voice, How Did He Get in There?, and Molly’s Journey to Forgiveness, among others.
My life has been marked by both deep pain and powerful redemption. After enduring a difficult marriage filled with alcoholism and drug addiction, walking through the heartbreaking loss of my sixteen-year-old son, and supporting my older son through emotional struggles, I found myself drawn into the loving arms of God the Father. Through Jesus Christ, I discovered His saving grace, and through the Holy Spirit, I found a constant Comforter and guide.
In the midst of my brokenness, God gently held my heart, restoring what once felt beyond repair. His love brought healing, renewal, and even the blessing of a new beginning—bringing into my life a husband who cherishes me with love and honor. What He has done for me, He can do for anyone.
Every book I write flows from this testimony of God’s faithfulness. My passion is to help others encounter His overwhelming love, whether through stories that inspire, devotionals that deepen faith, or children’s books that plant seeds of truth in young hearts.
Today, I co-own Your New Life Ministries with my husband, DL. Together, we serve as Christian authors, speakers, and podcast hosts, sharing messages of hope, healing, and transformation.
My greatest desire is to help others—especially women—heal from past wounds, overcome abuse, and discover who they truly are in Christ. You are not forgotten, you are not broken beyond repair—you are a daughter of the King, and there is a beautiful destiny waiting for you.
