ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Maggie Eriksson was a research scientist with NASA in 1969 on the Apollo Eleven Lunar Mission, but searching spiritually. She found a loving Father and a compassionate Savior, Jesus. He took her life in a new direction. From the sterile, colorless environment of a science laboratory, He brought her a new life of Christian fellowship, the mission field and new gifts. She says: “God never removes one thing from your life without having something better to take its place. I felt empty then, but my life with Jesus is unbelievably full. I have joy in sharing His love, and I know his power. He gifted me with abilities I did not have before. Above all, the time I have spent with Him over the past 45 years has enriched me with a relationship that is as close as the air I breathe. My relationship with Him is more valuable than anything I have ever had.”
Maggie was ordained in the Independent Assemblies of God International, served as a missionary in Taiwan and pastored a church in Ft. Lauderdale. In 1987 she completed a law degree to assist Christian women who had survived abusive marriages with whom she had counseled in prayer, ministering to them in gift ministries of the Holy Spirit, as well as representing them in Court. She is active in singing and composing sacred music, and in art. She lives in Florida.
