Amy Rachel Peterson studied history at Wheaton College (IL). Born in California during the Jesus Movement, her first years were spent in Christian communal houses and her growing years in the dense, urban environment of Chicago. After teaching high school history, she became an editor and publishing professional working with Christian ministries. She and her husband, Tim, live in the Pacific Northwest where she enjoys homemaking, writing, and exploring God's stunning creation. Amy's gaze on the eternal gives her a deep vision to see the Lamb's bride "love His appearing." She writes to draw people into the power and hope of truly knowing God.
