An Unexpected Journey…
About Connie MacLeod Author/Songwriter
Having spent 40 years traveling the globe as a singer/songwriter, when I lost my voice, all that creativity had to go somewhere. Concentrating more on writing, I also took up professional photography. My feature articles appeared in glossy magazines, newspapers & blogs. Then after meeting and marrying my hubby, Roddy, we set off for the Kenyan bush. While he trained indigenous pastors, I acted as corespondent for Distributed Rock Ministry.
While dodging every manner of dangerous peril, we experienced what’s referred to as the “Peace that passes all understanding. For example, snakes, scorpions, brush fires, tribal warfare, sabotage, floods, sickness, angry mobs, & one very aggressive bull elephant might cause some serious anxiety. However, we truly felt the Lord holding us in the very palm of His mighty, protective hand.
Seriously, there’s no earthly explanation for remaining calm when a spitting cobra is inches away from your head. So, yes, Jesus is real, protected us in supernatural ways and birthed in me a new voice…not melodious as before, but compelling on the page.
So, welcome to an epic, fraught with impossible twists and turns, spiritual warfare and divine intervention, set amidst the breathtaking canvass of Scotland in the adventures of William Ridley and the Celtic Cross!
The amazing stories of God’s grace, provision, miraculous intervention & His glory shining in the darkest of places are amply able to fill several novels. And yes, there is one in the making. More on that soon…but beneath the shadow of Mt. Ng’iro is where William’s story was born.
My husband and I cherish the people we lived alongside offering practical help, but more importantly, as daily survival was never guaranteed, the Good News of Salvation through Jesus Christ!
