The idea of writing a book came to Cathey Edgington after hearing her friend, Sandy Cleary, talk about writing her own book. Journey Out of Loneliness rose out of a period of time when Cathey personally experienced a deep feeling of loneliness. As God gave her more of the story line, Cathey put pen to paper, the first in her series Faith and Courage. Cathey, a mother of two adult sons, has two daughters-in-love, three granddaughters, and two grandsons. She lives in San Antonio, Texas, where she's involved in the Women's Ministry of First Baptist Church of Universal City. She is a member of the Christian Writers Group of San Antonio and Writers for Him. She has contributed devotions to the Universal City First Baptist Christmas Devotional for the past three years. Cathey loves to read, write, craft, sew, play handbells, and serve her Lord Jesus Christ.
