About the Author
Bob Peterson is a veteran story artist, screenwriter, director, and voice talent at Pixar. He was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for Finding Nemo and Up. He lives in San Francisco.
Linda Christensen and Norma Strange felt God's direction and encouragement during their pursuit and development of the stories and descriptions incorporated in the book. They witnessed or faced many of these challenges personally themselves. Linda and Norma's lifelong pursuit of critical thinking facilitated their efforts to analyze these challenging situations. The stories illuminate some of the subtle but devious ways that "doing what comes naturally" damages and destroys personal relationships. Mission Impossible becomes Mission Possible with God's awesome guidance and power.
