Elaine Olsen

Elaine is the mother of four children and the wife of Preacher Billy. She is a speaker, Bible study teacher, writer, and cancer survivor. She grew up in Wilmore, KY, a small town nestled along the rolling hills of the Bluegrass that boasts the presence of exquisite thoroughbreds and die-hard Wildcat basketball fans.

Her growing up years were spent running the hallways of Asbury Theological Seminary where her father was a professor of preaching and her mother, the Registrar. From the cradle to her current, Elaine has been a church girl. The spiritual shaping she received from her parents quickly secured for her a belief in a great big God who loves her far beyond reasonable bounds. God began the sacred conversation with Elaine from the earliest of ages; she has spent the past four decades walking the path of such a gracious grace. He has marked her forever for kingdom living and kingdom loving.

Join Elaine on the kingdom journey in her first book release "Peace for the Journey: in the pleasure of his company" {NyreePress, 2014}. Her second book, "Beyond the Scars: Daring to Live Forward" {NyreePress, 2014) originally released as "Beyond Cancer's Scars". She enjoys connecting with her readers at her website: www.PeaceForTheJourney.com.
