Glenda’s Story
Welcome to Glenda Shaw’s world, nestled just outside Athens, Georgia, where she shares a quaint farmhouse with her husband, David. With a heart as warm as her farmhouse kitchen, Glenda is known among her close-knit circle for her humor, reliability, honesty, and kind heart.
Having bid farewell to a storied career in office management, where she honed her organizational skills and learned the importance of perseverance, Glenda now embraces a life filled with the simple joys of writing, cooking, cultivating herbs, and crafting homemade jams and jellies. A connoisseur of glassware, her collection boasts antique bottles spanning decades, some discovered right on their farm. Yet, it’s her unique display of broken glass, gathered from around the farm from over nearly three decades, that truly captures the essence of her eclectic tastes, showcased in clear glass containers like vibrant memories frozen in time.
But Glenda’s journey extends beyond the comforts of her farmhouse; it’s a tale of transformation and resilience. Through her writing, she shares her personal quest for inner healing and joy, inspired by her own experiences of overcoming past traumas and finding solace in the Immanuel Approach. With each word penned, she offers a guiding light for others seeking their own path to healing and fulfillment, affirming that joy is not merely a destination but a journey within reach.
Glenda’s commitment to uplifting others is unwavering. Currently, she is immersed in her latest literary endeavor, with a working title of “The Holy Spirit: Encounter Him and Find Power, Peace, and Joy!” Scheduled for release in early 2025, this book promises to be a beacon of hope for those seeking a way to find peace and joy. Her dedication to sharing her journey and insights is a testament to her belief in the power of the Holy Spirit to uplift others, making each reader feel connected and valued.
Glenda is not just a writer, but an active member of several communities. She finds camaraderie and support among like-minded individuals in “Author Media, Bible Study Fellowship, Self-Publishing Genius Group, Women Empower University, Face to Face Ministries, and Intercessors for America.” Her involvement in these communities is a testament to her belief in the power of collective growth and learning. Join her as she continues to inspire and uplift souls, one heartfelt word at a time, and feel included in her journey of faith and self-discovery.
