Kristen Vincent has always loved theology, social justice, and writing. Thus it was a dream come true for her to have the opportunity to blend these passions into a book with Mark. Still, in the six years it took Mark to publish this book, Kristen authored two award-winning books: A Bead and a Prayer: A Beginner’s Guide to Protestant Prayer Beads (Upper Room Books, 2013) and Another Bead, Another Prayer: Devotions for Use with Protestant Prayer Beads (Upper Room Books, 2014). Kristen is also a freelance writer and blogger, business owner, coordinator for The ADA Legacy Project, wife, and mom.
