Author Spotlight

Hi my friends, welcome to our Author Spotlight page. One of my favorite things to do is to interview authors of the books that inspire me! There’s nothing like getting a bit of the back story–and sharing it with you.

Here’s my friend, Audra Smith. 

  Audra is a mom to 5 beautiful kids, 2 boys and 3 girls, and just last month she added a daughter in law. She’s a teacher, an encourager, a cancer survivor, and a griever. Several years ago, I would have introduced Audra as a pastor’s wife. But today, she is a pastor’s widow. That’s what she calls herself as she grieves honestly and faithFULLy on all her social media platforms in a way that is positive and Christ-honoring. 

  Here are links to some of the social media outlets where Audra ministers daily.

Instead: Things Your Grieving Friends Wish You Knew, But Will Never Tell You

Audra has many other inspirational poems and blog posts on her website, where she also has merch!
