About Our Authors

Bruce Floren’s journey of faith deepened at age forty, when a renewed commitment to Christ led him into years of study, prayer, and theological exploration. He holds a Master of Theological Studies (Cum Laude) and a Bachelor’s in Christian Ministries from Bethel University. He serves as the Spiritual Care Coordinator for MaryT Hospice in Coon Rapids, Minnesota, where he provides pastoral support to individuals and leads a congregation at Margaret Place, a hub for several assisted-living communities. His work in spiritual care places him alongside individuals and families in some of life’s most profound moments, shaping his perspective on transformation through faith in Jesus Christ. His book expands on themes explored in the work of scholars such as Dr. Jeannine K. Brown, offering a practical and compassionate approach to spiritual growth.  His ministry and years of theological reflection shape his writing on joy, spiritual vitality, and Christian well-being.
