Lori Cunningham's life journey has not been easy. Chronic childhood abuse and trauma has left its mark on her body and her soul. Fortunately, the story doesn't end there. Her story is entwined with the relentless love of her savior, Jesus Christ. She uses the words "not alone" spelled backwards for her Pen Name. Enola Ton is a constant reminder that she is never alone. Lori has spent her adult life overcoming the destruction abuse leaves in its path. Her empathy and compassion for lives marred by abuse fuel her desire to help others. Lori has walked through the difficulties of breaking the cycle of abuse through the redeeming power of Jesus. Her foremost goals in life are to know Jesus, to be known by him, and to make him known. She proclaims, with confidence, that, because of Jesus, you are not alone.
Lori currently lives near Conway, Arkansas, with her husband, John. She has three grown children and six grandchildren. Lori spends most of her time encouraging numerous friends and maintaining contact with many of the more-than-fifty kids who have lived in her home at various times. Lori is a cofounder of Central Arkansas Youth Camp, which provides a one-week, Christ-centered, summer camp experience for kids who would not otherwise be able to afford to attend. In her free time, she enjoys camping, hiking, and canoeing with her husband, but being a Florida girl at heart, she loves the beach, being barefoot, and reading good books.
