Childhood trauma and abuse have repercussions that can last a lifetime, interfering with our ability to trust, hope, and love, forever casting a shadow over our perception of the world … and of ourselves. What’s worse is that so many people will spend their entire lives suffering in silence, afraid, ashamed, and feeling alone even when surrounded by family or friends

Nuta Miller was one of those people for most of her life. Having suffered horribly at the hands of her mother and step-father, she felt desperately alone—helpless and voiceless. Fortunately, prior to those abusive years, her grandparents had instilled in her a strong foundation of love and generosity, and a deep and abiding faith that helped her to survive. With their support, she was able to recognize and embrace the blessings that inevitably came her way. So she was able to become the sort of mother and protector for her own children that she wished she’d had herself.

Though everyone’s story is different, by sharing we exemplify the road to recovery for others to follow. Offering hope and perseverance, Resurrection of Innocence hopes to show that we are never truly alone.

David and Nuta Miller have worked together to bring Nuta’s story to life, hoping it will show others that there is hope for the broken spirit.

Born and raised in Romania, Nuta has taken on many roles in her life, from dancer to business owner, as well as her most cherished roles as wife and mother—all of which seemed far out of reach for most of her young life.

David has studied the lives of the ancient Greco-Roman world and knows how a memorable narrative can inspire people to live well. Paying attention to the models of the past can teach the leaders of the future.
