Meet Kristen Collier! This
wonderful young Michigan native, wife and mother is on the ground floor of
something potentially huge in the Great Lakes/Upper Midwest region which could
take Christian multi-media to a whole new level. While her action-packed Facebook group page is full of activity from a
wide variety of Christian movie production and other professionals, as well as
up and comers, what is little known about Kristen is the prolific side of her
career as an author, and many times co-author with her husband Kevin Collier.
Here
is an example of some of their books – both for adults and children, currently
residing on the Amazon.com bookstore. I am currently reading one of her latest books called
King of Glory, a fast paced Bible based fiction which is really very well done. I
am, so far, very impressed by the dialogue between the characters and the solid
biblical background of Ms. Collier’s writing. In my opinion, she has an
untapped potential of a screenwriter, judging from the conversations in this
fast moving book!
As
Kristen says, the story behind “KING OF GLORY” is and it was developed from the
famous “Footprints in the Sand” poem where at the end of the poem there is only
one set of footprints in the sand, after the person in the poem had walked
alongside Jesus for most of the tome. At the very end of the poem, where we see
only one set of footprints, we “hear the words” of Jesus saying the following,
in essence – “you know, there were times in your life where you walked
alongside me in the Christian life. But many times, when you see only one set of
footprints – those were MY Footprints. Those were Mine because those were the
times you could not make it, you stumbled and fell and then could not get up.
It was I, the Lord, Who picked you up”!
If
you love the meaning behind this poem, which is a metaphor for the authentic
Christian life, you would love Kristen Collier’s book “King of Glory”. Christmas is coming up.
The paperback is only $5.95 and you can knock of many Christmas presents to
friends at church or in the office or home, with this book as a gift!
