Daisy Beiler Townsend had a life-long dream of being a writer and published her first story in 1981. Since then her work has been published in Guideposts, The Upper Room, The Secret Place, New Man, Christian Home, and many other Christian periodicals. She has also published seven previous books: Homespun Faith, Reflections on the Seasons of Life, the Sarah's Legacy series including Diary of a Series, and Homespun Faith, The Rest of the Story, Volume One. Daisy and her husband, Donn, also wrote more than one hundred songs and had a gospel music ministry and a Christian Nursery School for a number of years before Daisy began doing counseling with the National Christian Counselors Association. Later, they served with One Mission Society as missionaries to Japan and led a prayer ministry for Japan. They live in Pennsylvania and have three children (one in heaven) and six grandchildren.
