Inspirational Journeys: Stories that Matter

Kingdom Connections Through Fiction with Wendy Jo Cerna


Listen Later

A Kingdom connection is always orchestrated by the Holy
Spirit, especially when the connection is between two like-minded fiction
authors. This is what happened when Wendy Jo Cerna appeared as my first guest
in my brand new Kingdom Connections interview series. Come join us as God shows
us how he can provide the inspiration needed to write life changing fiction
that meets people where they are so they can hear the message He has laid on
our hearts to advance His kingdom.
Born into a family of educators in Minnesota, Wendy Jo
Cerna’s love of books and education was inevitable, eventually leading her into
the
world of theater in college, where she earned a BA in Drama
from the University of Washington and later an MS in Psychology from Walden
University.
After an inspirational nudge, Wendy Jo authored, The
Baby-Catcher Gate in 2017, followed by her second fictional work, The
Agreements, in 2020. Her most
recent novel, Solbakken: A Tale of Generations, is an
intriguing story of mystery and generational bonds.
 
Tora, a 65-year-old woman, is wading through an identity
malaise on the tail end of the covid era. She is at odds with her daughter and
unsure
of the impact of her life on a broader scope. A break-in at
her grandparents' homestead in far northern Minnesota gives her a cleanup
project to sink her
teeth into. As she sorts through the mess, she uncovers
family secrets that lead her to lines of inquiry with her extended family and
further examination
of her family tree. All the details begin to fall into place
by means of surprising discoveries, vivid dreams, and a strange new neighbor
whose history
is shrouded in its own layer of mystery.
