Chronic Joy® Staff Writer and Prayer Team
Kara and her husband Conrad live in Calgary, Canada. After an almost 30-year career in teaching, Kara now enjoys leading ladies’ Bible studies, facilitating a chronic illness group, and helping new friends learn English. She loves the Word of God, and she loves encouraging others through her devotional writing. Kara felt led to write a book of devotionals (Searching for Sea Glass) when her journey with chronic illnesses pressed her into God’s arms of love more deeply. She prays that her journey and refinement will encourage you in your walk with God.
