Jennifer Slattery is a fiction author and has written 8 books. The morning of the interviewed she signed a contract with Love Inspired.
Jennifer reveals that she fought the urge to write because she was worried about her history getting out. She then goes on to share about her past. At one time she was living on the streets. Jennifer said she now realizes that she was hiding her testimony. She has an urban ministry.
Jennifer believes that we could be unstoppable if we could live out our lives in Christ. She formed Wholly Loved ministries has 6-8 conferences a year. I have included a link to her website so you can learn more about it.
Each of the five novels with New Hope Publishers has one character with a difficult past. In her current book, Restoring Love, is a woman that is a new Christian at 51. So she has a lot of years where she was not living as a Christian. They reach out to a single mom with a husband that is incarcerated. As they give her grace she understands grace more.
Jennifer closes with talking about real healing. If you missed our interview live, you can watch a replay here.

Jennifer’s Books:
Mitch, a contractor and house-flipper, is restoring a beautiful old house in an idyllic Midwestern neighborhood. Angela, a woman filled with regrets and recently transplanted to his area, is anything but idyllic. She’s almost his worst nightmare, and she’s also working on restoring something—herself.
He struggles to keep his business afloat and she works to overcome mistakes of her past. These two unlikely friends soon discover they have something unexpected in common—a young mom who is fighting to give her children a better life after her husband’s incarceration. While both Mitch and Angela are drawn to help this young mother survive, they also find themselves drawn to each other.
Will a lifetime of regrets hold them back or unite them and bring redemption along with true love?
