Being Christ in Our Lives: Linda M. Au

Linda M. Au is one of the funniest people I know. I call her the Erma Bombeck of our generation. To see if you agree, check out her books: Head in the Sand … and other unpopular positions, and Fork in the Road … and other pointless discussions.

A few things you might not know from her writing:

  • Linda is painfully shy, but has followed the Lord’s call to some leadership positions nonetheless.lindaau
  • Linda is the pickiest proofreader I’ve ever known (which is why I recommend her… and cringe every time I post on Facebook, knowing her eagle eye will find any mistake and “helpfully” point it out; the girl can’t help it).
  • Most importantly, Linda placed her trust in God at a time it would have been very easy to reject Him forever… and has been amply rewarded. Even if she hadn’t been, I know she’d do it again. Her rock-solid faith amid trial inspires me.
