Edie Melson & Cynthia Cavanaugh have discovered the incredible strength and peace that comes from studying God’s word daily. They’ve been through difficult times and each of them cites the time spent in God’s Word as the practice that helped them navigate through the chaos. Now they have a passion—formed in the crucible of need—to help others develop that same life-sustaining practice.
Edie Melson is a woman of faith with ink-stained fingers observing life through her camera lens.
She’s a writer who feels lost without that device and a card-carrying introvert who loves to encourage an audience. She also embraces the ultimate contradiction of being an organized creative. She knows what it is to walk through hardship and the power of focusing on God instead of circumstances.
As an advocate of consistent Soul Care, Edie leads workshops around the world on the importance of staying connected to God. Her numerous books, including the award-winning Soul Care series and reflect her passion to help others develop the strength of their God-given gifts.
She and husband Kirk have been married 40+ years and raised three sons. They live in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and can often be found hiking—with Edie clinging to the edge of a precipice for the perfect camera angle and Kirk patiently carrying her tripod.
