Book Cover & Preview Text
Who are you? The real you? Have you ever explored you? I went through a period in my life that I realized that I had no idea who I was. I had lost my personality, my hopes, my dreams, my understanding of who I was – all of that was gone. If you asked me my favorite color or what I wanted to eat, I would have been overwhelmed because I had no idea. It’s a horrible, lost, lonely place to live. Thankfully, God doesn’t forget His children. He brought me back and began to open up to me who He had created me to be. I am still learning and loving it. I encourage you to explore the real you. Forget who everyone told you that you are and ask God to show you who you really are in Him.
The Lord wants you to discover who you were created you to be. He made you unique and special. He took great care in creating every part of you - body, soul, and spirit. Past experiences have tried to cover over the amazingness that is you. As you begin to carve away at the rough exterior you will find the treasure that is you. Michelangelo could find beauty in the roughest hunks of marble. He described his process as such, “I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.” God does the same for you.

About the Author
Pam writes books, which, since you are reading this you already know. She also writes blogs, devotionals and long grocery lists because her husband eats a lot. She has been a Bible teacher for over forty years in churches and private schools. Her Junior High students’ nominations inducted her into the Who’s Who Among American Teachers eleven years in a row. She taught for many more than eleven years so we are not sure what happened the other years. Pam has taught individuals from preschool age to adults and everyone in between. She has held offices in Toastmasters International and some other stuff. She has volunteered with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America and done a bunch of other things with Girl Scouts, 4-H Clubs, soccer teams, dance teams, puppet shows and whatever else her kids were doing. She has co-written school curriculum and created a study-guide program of foundational truths, Walking with Christ, for those new to Christianity.
Pam likes things educational including school. She’s weird like that. She attended Midwest Bible College, Heartland Community College, University of Illinois Springfield and achieved her master’s degree in Organizational Leadership from Lincoln Christian University. She took a few classes through other colleges too. Do you think she should go for her doctorate? She is thinking it might be a great next challenge if she can get her husband on board. Pam was inspired to write Destiny Arise by bestselling author, Dr. Wanda Davis Turner. Her time as Dr. Wanda’s mentee richly added to Pam’s teaching. Dr. Wanda has been an inspiration, a motivator, and provided great encouragement in Pam’s launch into authoring books. Mom Wanda – thank you.
When Pam isn’t writing she is relaxing at her home in central Illinois. She loves spending time with her grandkids, riding her bicycle, reading, traveling, reading while traveling, or just sitting on the porch swing. Connect with her on Facebook and Twitter.
