Author's Riveting True Story Tells the Monumental Repercussions of Upholding Biblical Values to Provide Critical Encouragement to Believers

Xulon Press presents the gripping true story of how one family persevered through public persecution, professional devastation and ultimately, found a deeper calling for defending biblical values.

MAITLAND, Fla., March 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Author Caterina Tori, a steadfast advocate for faith, family, and freedom, shares her family's story to encourage anyone facing religious persecution in Called Not Canceled: One Family's Story of Conviction and Cost in Post-Christian America ($23.49, paperback, 9798868528705; $7.99, e-book, 9798868528712).

Caterina Tori's powerful testimony exposes the high personal cost her family faced when she stood for Truth during media appearances, conservative advocacy, and faith-driven leadership. It's a raw and courageous account of how her outspoken stance in the cultural and political arena sparked monumental controversy. In fact, upholding her biblical values resulted in what the author describes as "unthinkable backlash" when her husband, a respected award-winning surgeon, was abruptly fired. This in turn catapulted the family into the heart of cancel culture. Caterina's story, from heartbreak and resilience, encourages all believers to remain faithful, courageous and unashamed in a culture desperate to silence them.

When asked what inspired the author to write this book, Caterina Tori said, "This is my true story that has been written to act as a harbinger of things to come in a Nation that rejects biblical truth. This book acts as a testimony that God is faithful in a spiritual battle and how to prepare when the battle is in your home."
