Gloria Strong:

 I am a second-place winner of a 'Women of Faith' writing contest and a born-again believer of Jesus Christ, filled with the Holy Spirit. I was born in Texas and raised in Arkansas and San Jose, California. I attended several colleges, including Biola College and LCBI, where I studied under Pastors Tom and Marsha Roberts and Liberty College of Biblical Studies. I am the widow of Ret. GySgt. Richard M. Strong, and  I am the mother of three sons. I have grandchildren and great-grandchildren. I have been a devoted member of Liberty Church in Havelock, NC, since around 1984. I reside in Havelock, NC, at the time. I give God the glory and honor for being able to complete my novels.
