I’m delighted to share that Just Love Her has been awarded the Readers’ Favorite Gold Medal in the Non-Fiction – Religion/Philosophy category for 2025.
“Congratulations Raz Mihal! Just Love Her is a 2025 Readers’ Favorite Gold Medal Winner in the Non-Fiction – Religion/Philosophy genre!”
This honour means a lot because Readers’ Favorite judges each book on merit, not on how many entries there are. They award up to five levels — Gold, Silver, Bronze, Honorable Mention and Finalist — and they don’t have to fill every tier. In some categories multiple books can earn the same level if they achieve the same judging score. In short: quality over quotas, which makes a Gold especially meaningful.

Why this matters
Just Love Her is a lyrical meditation on love’s divine essence — how devotion, presence, and surrender re-order a life. Having that vision recognised by an independent panel is a quiet affirmation that the work is landing where it should: in the heart.
Thank you
To every reader who has walked with me through these pages: thank you. Your messages, reflections, and re-readings keep the flame bright.
