Donna Rae James holds a Bachelor of Arts from San Diego State University; she is a Board Certified Biblical Counselor through the American Association of Christian Counselors. She is an Ordained and Licensed Chaplain through Chaplain Fellowship Ministries International and an Ordained Minister with Richard Boen Ministries. She is a retired educator. Donna enjoys being Nana to 5 grandchildren, writing, teaching and speaking. She loves fishing, target shooting and exploring the area in which she lives. She loves volunteering at her local hospital as Chaplain. She is married to her husband, Dewey, of 49 years and they live in the beautiful area of Pinetop, Arizona which is in the White Mountains. They both volunteer in Hospital Ministries together. Since 1992 Donna has been involved in Ministry. Much of it has been Prayer Ministry. This has taken her in and out of Hospitals from California to Arizona. She has been gifted with the ability to see God at work around her in the ordinary stuff of life. Her life experiences have offered her a unique perspective on life's trials. She adores children and they relate to her well. Her ability to "counsel" has enriched her and the ministry God called her to. She is able to relate to most any age group or culture. She is a gifted teacher at elementary through adult. She has led Women's Bible Studies, Women's Prayer Groups and speaks at Women's events. Her favorite Bible text is Isaiah 61. It is Donna's prayer that in the pages of this book you will be encouraged, challenged and inspired to fall deeper in love with Christ. You can expect to shed a tear and to laugh as you read, "Glimpses of Grace." Blessings to you from me.
