Lynn lives in Southern California with her husband, best friend, and soul mate, Gary, whom she married in 1968. They raised two sons, who are now both married and have blessed them with four grandchildren. Lynn has worked with children and parents for well over 30 years, either teaching in the public school, leading in children’s ministry, or being a mentor/advisor to teenagers. 

Finally, the Lord led her to use her artistic talents, lessons He had taught her, and her passion for young people to produce her first book, God’s True Love Revealed. It included 23 of her colored pencil drawings of children and a timeless collection of messages for children and their parents. When Lynn had finished the last page of that book, touching on using the full armor of God, the Lord made it quite clear that she would be writing another book on how to actually use the full armor of God. This time, however, she would be writing to “tweeners” and teenagers. Again putting to use her drawing ability, experiences with teens, and the Lord’s leading, Are You Ready? was created seven years later. It is Lynn’s heartfelt desire that through these pages you will understand just how much the Lord loves you and will provide you with everything you need to survive your teen years and beyond.
