I’m an author that loves history and the Lord Jesus Christ,my Saviour. Not too unusual for a Christian writer. However, what is unique isthat I grew up on a farm near Arrowwood, Alberta, Canada and now live inCalifornia with my husband and three kids—not in New York, LosAngeles, San Francisco, or any other major North American city.
My own history as a Christian began as a child attendingVacation Bible School at the Arrowwood Gospel Mission. One of the take homepapers asked when the reader was saved. I couldn’t give an answer. I knew thatI believed in Jesus, but I didn’t know for sure if I was going to Heaven when Idie. The next day I couldn’t wait until VBS was over so I could talk with theteacher, Linda Brown, about how to be saved. After repenting and calling on thename of the Lord Jesus Christ for my salvation, I became a new creature and begana new journey through life.
Today I attend Calvary Baptist Church in American Canyon, CAwhere I fellowship with some of the most wonderful people I’ve ever known.
Because of my love for the Lord, I try my best to glorifyHim in my writing. I desire, through my work, to show Christ to those who donot know Him as their personal Saviour and to encourage and exhort those whodo.
Though I loved writing short stories as a child and throughmy youth, writing didn’t take a prominent place in my life until many yearslater when I started writing about horses and horse husbandry for magazines andbooks. That became the catalyst for me to seriously consider writing fiction .. . but not just any fiction—fiction that would present Biblicaltruths through story. This led to me publishing Best of Faith, Fiction, Fun, and Fanciful,and writing more novels, including Joab’sFire which will be released in June 2011.
I blog at Faith, Fiction, Fun, andFanciful about writing and my faith. I also share some short stories on theblog for FictionFriday. As a further ministry, I do AutographTea Parties for ladies groups where I read something I have written andgive my salvation testimony.
You can also follow me on Twitter and visit my website: http://www.lynnsquire.com/.
I hope you join me here and on Faith, Fiction, Fun, andFanciful to explore this journey of life.
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
