Is It God or Am I Crazy? My Unexpected Journey Through Pain to Happily Ever After (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780986034619)

Lynn Severn Blankenship is an Indiana native born in the mid 1960's. She was raised by devout Christian parents who encouraged her to pursue a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and to be an extension of his love through ministry to others. Her love for God and passion for music led her to Central Bible College in Springfield, Missouri where she met her late husband, Rev. Jimmy Ray Severn while preparing for church music ministry. Lynn served alongside her husband for 22 years until his death in 2009. In those two decades she served in youth ministry, taught Sunday school, assisted with worship and led the women's ministry program. She co-founded Newsong Church in Centerton, Arkansas, with her late husband in 2008. She oversaw the ministry of the church after her husband's death until one of the pastors they had mentored was appointed to carry on the work. She currently resides in the countryside of Northwest Arkansas with her husband, Rev. Dr. James R. Blankenship. In her first book and memoir, Can You Hear God Whisper? The Fairy Tale Life of a Pastor's Wife, Lynn illustrates the truth that God communicates with his children still today and how profoundly those whispers of God-given insight can impact the outcomes of our lives.
