Healing and wholeness inspire Mary Edlund's passion for ministry: To assist those who seek to grow in spiritual understanding of God's role in their life, regardless of their religious affiliation. A spiritual director, small group leader, retreat leader, and Healing (energy) Therapist, Mary is a retired Full Deacon in the United Methodist Church, having served in conference and parish ministry as well as wholeness ministry.

Several of her devotional poems have been published as choral anthems composed by Eugene Butler. Other poems are included in this book. Theological studies from various seminaries and a Master's Degree in Mass Communications from the University of Minnesota prepared her for service as Steward of Communications for the Minnesota Annual Conference United Methodist Church before moving to Durango, Colorado in 2001.
