What followed was a deeply personal journey through grief, loss, and the painful unraveling of her past. With unwavering honesty, she recounts how Christ gently led her through a long and sacred healing process—one that required her to confront a history of trauma she had carried for decades. In the wilderness of waiting, she discovered that surrender was not defeat but transformation. Emerging not merely as a survivor, but as a warrior and a healer, Oleson now embraces her calling through faith—as a light bearer and humble servant for Christ.    Kim Renea Oleson is a world traveler, missionary, volunteer children’s pastor, and retired forensic psychotherapist. She graduated summa cum laude with a master’s degree in psychology from the University of Northern Colorado.   A writer and photographer with a deep love for the outdoors, Oleson enjoys hiking, cycling, and wandering through botanical gardens. She is the proud mother of two sons and later in life a young 15-year-old child came into her life and it wasn’t long before they started calling each other mother and daughter. She is a grandmother to five beloved grandchildren and devoted companion to a scruffy little Puerto Rican street dog named Pashie.     ###   Xulon Press is the world’s largest Christian self-publisher, with more than 20,000 titles published to date. <a href="https://bookstore.xulonpress.com/bookdetail.php?PB_ISBN=9798868531491" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="In the Waiting: My Journey Through the Wilderness">In the Waiting: My Journey Through the Wilderness</a> is available online through xulonpress.com/bookstore, amazon.com, and barnesandnoble.com.
