She has been in His service for most of her adult life. She has an education background and her master's degree in Biblical Counseling. Linda has served as a Director of Care Ministry, a pastoral counselor, and taught Biblical Discipleship at Myrtle Beach Community Church a.k.a. Beach Church for the past twenty-five years. She has maintained a close relationship with Victorious Christian Living International (VCLI) and has faithfully used the SALT (Seven Areas of Life Training) Discipleship Tools to teach and equip the church body. Linda is a gifted, as well as a licensed and ordained Senior Chaplain with a long-standing association with the IFOC (International Fellowship of Chaplains) for more than fifteen years and serves her local chapter as a Chaplain of Chaplains. Through her teaching and counseling of countless men and women in their pain and challenges in life, she has been a faithful conduit of wisdom, healing, and comfort through God's power. Linda has spoken at many conferences, women's groups, and graciously received an honorary doctorate when she taught pastors and missionaries with GTSSS (Gospel Tribal Society of Social Services) in India - through (VCLI). Her favorite people call her "Nona," which is Italian for grandmother, and she cheekily refers to them as "My Ninjas." Her constant companion is Chief, a Whippador, who wears a bowtie and thinks he is a person. She loves her family deeply and is affectionately called "true north." She is inspired by sunrises, flowers in her garden, and people who don't give up. She is an insatiable reader and learner and loves to walk on the beach and listen to His voice. Linda believes that tragedy does not shape who you become; it reveals who you are. During her life, she has always loved to write and journal but only for her own sanity and healing. She told God she would not write the story until He gave her the title, which He finally did through a vision in 2008. She wrote the story, shared pieces of it in a testimony, raised her children, and put the story on a shelf for her family. Then one day, a dear friend asked if she could read it. She took it to her friend, Sandi, an author and new publisher. We all believe "Above the Overpass" was written for "such a time as this."ver menos
