Jackie Burns

Jackie Burns is a Christian author and former corporate professional. After following God’s call to step away from her career, she now focuses on apologetics-based discipleship for children and families.

Her journey began when one of her daughters asked a deep theological question she didn’t know how to explain in simple terms. That moment revealed a larger problem: kids are asking big questions, and parents often feel unprepared to respond. Jackie wrote The Wondering Place to help bridge that gap.

Her work blends Scripture, evidence-based Christian apologetics, and child-centered teaching to help young readers build a thoughtful, confident faith. Jackie believes children deserve more than surface-level answers. They deserve explanations that respect their intelligence, address their doubts, and guide them toward a lasting relationship with God.

Jackie’s writing is shaped by her experience as a mother, her background in corporate project management, and personal study in theology and apologetics. Her approach blends structure with warmth, and truth with gentleness.

Through her work, Jackie hopes to help children grow in confidence and deepen their faith. Not through blind faith, but through understanding, reason, and a relationship with the Lord that will last a lifetime.
