Linda Thompson“Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us lay aside every encumbrance… and run with endurance the race set before us.”
Heb 12:1

Thank you so much for dropping by my website! My goal is to pen stories that give life to the “great cloud of witnesses,” so their journeys can encourage us to run our own races with endurance. And overcome even through trying times–like these.

I hope I’ve accomplished those things with my first historical novels: my award-winning debut, The Plum Blooms in Winter, and my latest release, The Mulberry Leaf Whispers.

The Plum Blooms In Winter proves a taut, crisp, debut achievement that colorfully evokes the Pacific theater of WWII. Start this one forewarned: it’s a stay-up-all-night read.”
– Jerry B. Jenkins, 21-Time New York Times bestselling author (Left Behind, et al)

The books I feel compelled to write—the stories that grab me and won’t let go—are no light read. My characters are flawed people facing brutal—and all too real—circumstances. However, in the end they’re also stories of reckless faith and (spoiler alert!) none of it’s too grim for God.

“From the palaces of 1500 Japan to the war-ravaged 1940s, The Mulberry Leaf Whispers rivals Shogun with its sweeping story of passion & faith, survival & hope…. Be prepared to be enriched, moved and deeply satisfied.”
– Jane Kirkpatrick, Award-winning author of Something Worth Doing

The thing I’ve always treasured in a book was when it propelled me on a journey. Beckoned me through the wardrobe door and plunged me into a world where the stakes are high and the settings exotic. But I’ve also come to realize we’re all living a vast adventure story entitled The Last Days.

God is doing amazing things, now, in our day, that should push us to the edge of our seats. And every believer plays a critical role at the front lines of faith.

Our real-life adventure features plenty of opposition and drama. There are giants in the land, even more colossal than the one David confronted. That’s why my blog is entitled Five Stones and a Sling.

If you’re prepared to join the adventure and confront the realities of living in these perilous times, it’s my goal to see you intrigued, then immersed, then ignited here.
