Kari Hoffmann

Kari Hoffmann is the mother of Landen Hoffmann, the young boy who survived a 39 foot fall from a third-floor balcony at the Mall of America in 2019. A story that made headlines around the world. In the midst of that unimaginable moment, Kari turned to her faith, crying out to God and asking everyone in the mall to pray. What followed was a series of undeniable miracles that defied science and left even medical professionals in awe.

Now a published author, Kari shares the deeper, untold parts of Landen’s story in her book Miracle at the Mall. She reveals how God had prepared her heart years before the tragedy, how He strengthened her through past trials, and how her family’s journey is a testament to the power of prayer, faith, and the miraculous love of Jesus.

Kari is a devoted wife and mother of three, and she continues to speak hope into the lives of others who are walking through pain, loss, or uncertainty pointing them back to the God who still works miracles today.
