AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT: Stacy Monson
Welcome to the Blog Blitz for The Mosaic Collection, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!
ABOUT THE COLLECTION
For His glory...
The Mosaic Collection is an international community of women authors who use faith-based fiction to touch hearts with the good news that Christ's finished work on the cross has made us one family, and to nurture affection for the people God has placed within our circles of influence, so that the grace and glory of God may become visible and personal to everyone we meet.
We are sisters, a beautiful mosaic united by the love of God through the blood of Christ. We have experienced the redemptive, restorative power of God's grace in our marriages and families, and we believe our God is able to heal, restore and redeem our brokenness. His love fills us with the courage to persevere, and to offer others a Christ-like compassion that is full of His wisdom and grace.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Stacy Monson is
the award-winning author of The Chain of Lakes series, including Shattered
Image, Dance of Grace, and The Color of Truth, as well as her
newest release, Open Circle. Her stories reveal an extraordinary God at
work in ordinary life. Residing in the Twin Cities, she is the wife of a
juggling, unicycling physical education teacher, a proud mom, and doting
grandma.
Cornerstone message from the collection: Our identity is found first and foremost in God. Made in His
image, we bear His DNA. We are fully, unconditionally loved by our Creator.
While society tells us we don’t measure up, we aren’t good enough, we need to
conform, God tells us we are loved exactly where we are being who we are. He
invites us daily to walk with Him, look to Him for whatever needs we have, and
to trust Him no matter what happens to or around us because He is always there
for and with us. Despite the negative messages that rain over us, His message
shines through – you are loved.
