전기 및 작가의 여정

Lysa TerKeurst is an American Christian nonfiction writer, speaker, and ministry leader whose career has been shaped by an unusually public blend of testimony, teaching, and organizational leadership. As president and chief visionary officer of Proverbs 31 Ministries, she has become one of the best-known voices in contemporary women’s Christian publishing. Her early adulthood marked a major turning point: while in college, the death of her baby sister after a medical mistake shattered her faith for a time. TerKeurst has said that a friend’s challenge to stop living only in the question of why and to ask what now helped redirect her spiritual life and, eventually, her writing. She now writes from her family’s farm table and lives in North Carolina. ((https://lysaterkeurst.com/wp-content/uploads/media/Lysa_TerKeurst_Media_Kit.pdf))
