Loretta McNary talks Craving Connection with StoryTeller Jennifer Dukes Lee

Our guest is DaySpring author, Jennifer Dukes Lee.

She is a storyteller and a grace dweller, and I’ve been blogging about faith right here, since 2008.

Jennifer and her husbandI are raising crops, pigs, a herd of cats, and two humans on the Lee family farm in Iowa.

Jennifer wrote a couple books, The Happiness Dare released in 2016, has been a game-changer for people who thought that God only cared about their joy. And wrote another book in 2014, called Love Idol. It’s for any woman who needs to know that she has nothing to prove — that she’s “preapproved” in Christ.

She's a journalist at heart. And use to cover crime, politics, and natural disasters as a news reporter for metropolitan daily newspapers. Now, she uses her reporting skills to chase after the biggest story ever: the redemptive story of Christ. (That’s front-page news.) She clings to the hope of a cross, and is passionate about sharing the Good News through story. Jennifer believe in miracles; and is one. She still marvels at God’s unrelenting grace for stumbling sinners like her, who have been made whole through Christ. She believes in scandalous grace, and that the cross is the most priceless and costly gift the world has ever seen. And believes it really is all because of Jesus.

Along this journey, she loves to tell the story. (‘Twill be my theme in glory!).
