Lindsay Banton, author of "Follow Me: An Interactive Encounter with the Words of Jesus" (June, 2024) and "Trail Guide: A Simple Manual for Understanding the Bible" (CruPress, 2023) is a writer, speaker and U.S. missionary. She and her husband were born and raised in Virginia, but relocated to north east Connecticut to pioneer a campus ministry at a large state university. This relocation has caused her to improve her boot collection, strengthen her soup making skills, and become well-versed in the world of quality winter gear. Together they have three children and one very large dog. Lindsay writes for a number of homeschool curriculum companies, her fellowship of churches, and a few other blogs here and there. She has a passion for writing and teaching about the topics of true discipleship, raising whole kids, anything having to do with the life of Jesus, and resources to help people feel equipped to read and encounter the Bible effectively. The older she gets, the more she loves children’s books and doing more of the simpler things in life.
