Tanya Y. Hines uses her gifts as a way to engage in the ministry of encouragement. Through her personal photos and inspirational writing, she uplifts, encourages, and motivates others. Tanya treasures her faith and she knows it has helped her through some of her toughest moments. By honestly and authentically sharing her trials, she hopes to offer her readers with hope as they encounter their own life challenges. Her desire is to embolden others to walk with trust in the Lord at all times, even in those deep, dark moments of despair and hopelessness. Giving all praise to the Lord, the rock of her salvation, Tanya prays that her book will bless others. When she is not writing or serving in ministry, she enjoys spending quality time with her husband and college-age son.
