Dr. Harold J. Berry has taught and preached the Bible since he was seventeen years old, a faithful minister of the Word whose decades of study and service have left a legacy that extends far beyond any single sermon or classroom. A former professor of Bible and Greek at Grace University of Omaha and longtime personal assistant to Theodore H. Epp, the founder of Back to the Bible, Dr. Berry holds a Master of Theology from Dallas Theological Seminary and a Doctor of Divinity from Grace University.

He has authored many books, each one an invitation to receive, reflect, and respond to the Scriptures he has spent a lifetime studying.

Julia Erman is a wife, mother, speaker, and advocate with the mission of helping families build compassion and understanding around disability. As a mother to two children affected by a rare genetic disorder, Julia found herself not only navigating the everyday realities of special needs parenting, but also noticing something bigger—a lack of language and confidence many people feel when talking about disability with children.

That gap is what led her to write. Her first book, Hazelnut, It’s Time to Get Up, tells her daughter’s story with warmth and hope, and has become a meaningful resource for parents, educators, and caregivers.

In her debut poetry devotional, In the Stillness: 40 Days of Poems for the One Learning to Abide, author Stacy Brantner invites readers to slow their hurried hearts and discover peace in the presence of Jesus. Written out of her own journey of recovery and healing, Stacy’s words tenderly guide others who are learning to trust God again after seasons of loss and pain.

Through forty days of original poems paired with Scripture and prayer, In the Stillness offers a rhythm of reflection that leads readers from brokenness toward abiding.

Denise J. Hughes has spent decades helping women draw closer to God through Scripture, prayer, and community. As an author, Bible teacher, and writing mentor, Denise has a gift for translating theological depth into heartfelt connection. True to that mission, her newest release, While Waiting for Morning: An Invitation to Pray, offers readers a quiet space to rediscover the beauty of prayer.

We absolutely loved collaborating with her to bring this reflective and deeply encouraging prayer guide to life!
