What is it that transforms someone from despair into a fearless witness for Christ?  It is the discovery of being deeply and extravagantly loved, and it is a longing to tell anyone with ears to hear, that they are as well.  Humor, raw honesty, and complete trust in a mighty and amazing God, is what you will find when you hear Linda tell her story—a story of pain and unimaginable joy, and her response to God’s call to surrender. 

One day, as calmly as you please, God called Linda to write a book—to tell her story to others who were hurting and needed encouragement.  Her story may not be unusual, but her response to God was.

Linda got what she prayed for, and now speaks at churches, conferences, and retreats. If the purpose of your event is to send everyone home all warm and fuzzy, you may want to reconsider booking Linda. She speaks with passion and conviction that answering God’s call is every Christian’s responsibility, with a presentation that can change hearts and transform lives.
