Autorenporträt
Candise M. B. Heinlein, a former U.S. Air Force (USAF) spouse, is a mother of three grown children with four grandchildren. She graduated Duquesne University in 1979 with a degree in Psychology and then entered the USAF as a munitions maintenance officer. Having left the service when her children were young, she later embarked on a career as an editor of scientific journals. Following her divorce, she felt called to enter seminary and global mission work. She graduated Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary in 2009 with a master's in religion, concentrating in Theology. Her final semester of seminary had been spent at Makumira University College in Usa River, Tanzania, before moving on to a position as a volunteer missionary in the Department of Communications of the Kenya Evangelical Lutheran Church, Nairobi. In 1991, the author began a healing process that would take her from a victim of childhood sexual abuse to a recovering survivor, and all points in between (i.e., PTSD, depression, anxiety, codependency, marriage counseling, spiritual crises, and divorce). Through it all, God walked with her and whispered in her ear His truths to be shared as poetry. She has found that her poetry is her true ministry.
