Where Is My Home illuminates the universal longing for love, security, and a true sense of belonging in a world where broken families and emotional pain are all too familiar.
This powerful and heartwarming film follows Wenya’s life—a young girl whose search for a real home leads her through heartbreak, hardship, and, ultimately, the discovery of God’s love.
Growing in brokenness
Wenya’s struggles began when she was just two years old, as her parents’ divorce shattered the family she knew.
After her parent’s separation, Wenya lived with her father and stepmother. However, instead of providing warmth and comfort, her stepmother treated her coldly and often quarreled with her father.
Caught in the middle of a troubled household, Wenya became an unwanted presence. Consequently, her father had little choice but to send her to live with her mother—but life in her mother’s home was no better.
Focused entirely on her business, Wenya’s mother had little time or energy to care for her. As a result, Wenya was tossed from one relative’s house to another, growing up without the stability and affection a child so desperately needs. This constant shuffling left Wenya feeling isolated and helpless, yearning for the warmth of a proper home.
Eventually, when her father’s second marriage fell apart, Wenya returned to his side. Though life remained challenging, she finally had a place to call home. Yet, the emotional scars of an unstable childhood left her longing for something more profound: a place where she could feel safe, loved, and truly at peace.
Carrying heavy burdens alone
Despite her difficult upbringing, Wenya grew into a thoughtful, obedient, and hardworking young woman. She poured herself into her studies, hoping academic success would offer her a better future.
As she prepared for her crucial college entrance exams, tragedy struck again. Her mother suffered a sudden brain hemorrhage, leaving her paralyzed and bedridden.
As if that weren’t enough, Wenya’s stepfather abandoned her mother, taking control of all her financial assets.
Around the same time, Wenya’s father was diagnosed with liver cancer and hospitalized.
With both parents incapacitated and no financial support, the weight of the entire household fell squarely on Wenya’s shoulders.
Desperate for help, she turned to relatives and family friends, only to be rejected.
Alone and overwhelmed, Wenya faced a seemingly hopeless situation.
A light in the darkness
When Wenya’s burdens felt too heavy to bear, a glimmer of hope emerged. Two of her mother’s friends visited and shared the gospel of God with them.
Through their words and the teachings of the Bible, Wenya and her mother began to understand the root of human suffering. They realized that the pain and struggles of life originate from humanity’s disconnection from God.
As Wenya opened her heart to God’s truth, she found comfort and strength she had never known.
God’s words offered a perspective beyond her suffering, revealing that true peace and security come from relying on Him alone.
For the first time, Wenya felt the warmth of a genuine home—a spiritual home where she was fully known, loved, and accepted.
Discovering the true meaning of home
“Where Is My Home” is a testament to the transformative power of faith. The film reminds viewers that while earthly homes can be broken and fragile, God’s love is an unchanging refuge.
Wenya’s journey reflects the experience of many who find healing and hope in their relationship with God—despite family hardships and emotional wounds.
Ultimately, Wenya discovers that home is not merely a physical place but a profound sense of belonging in God’s embrace.
No matter how difficult life becomes, God’s love provides comfort, guidance, and a lasting home for those who seek Him.
The message of “Where Is My Home” resonates deeply in today’s world, where so many yearn for love and stability. It offers a powerful reminder that no matter how broken our earthly homes may be, there is a heavenly home waiting for us—a place where we are always cherished and never alone.
