Joy Ibsen is a dynamic writer and musician who lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico. In addition to UNAFRAID, she has published several other books, including Here and Hereafter, The Eternity Connection; Songs of Denmark, Songs to Live By; and Poetry in the Porkies.

Joy’s work is influenced by Danish-American values and spirit, especially the philosopher-theologian-poet N.F.S. Grundtvig, along with modern culture and current spiritual quests heading toward a new period of enlightenment.

The new edition of UNAFRAID features “Parables and the Pandemic,” and is based on her father’s sermon notes from Biblical parables which Joy applies to the personal spiritual journeys and incredible opportunities for growth.
