Faith Blum
Faith Bloom is an author, entrepreneur, mom, and wife. She is a small town Wisconsin girl, and has lived in, or outside of, small towns her entire life and wouldn’t have it any other way. The mere thought of living in a city with more than 60,000 people in it scares her to death, especially after some interesting adventures driving through some bigger cities like St. Paul and Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Faith loves stories because they can teach history, but in a fun way. It is also her way to have a creative outlet as she takes care of a toddler. She is blessed to write as her full time career.

When she isn’t busy writing, she can be found cooking from scratch, reading, doing the dishes, crocheting, knitting, sewing, figuring out her social media content, or spending time with her family. She also enjoys playing the piano for church and making products for her Pampered Bookworm business. Faith enjoys painting walls just as long as she doesn’t also have to do the ceilings or hallways.

Seven years back, Jed Stuart ran away from his home and joined up with Tom’s gang. Jed has gotten tired of the lawlessness and now wants out. Only problem is that he is boss’s right-hand man and is never going to be able to leave. And what is just one more stagecoach robbery, anyway?

Can Joshua lean on the strength of God to keep himself and his sister alive until they can find a town? Is Jed going to be able to face his own anger or is it going to consume him entirely? All three of them are running: the hunted and the hunter. What is going to happen when they finally meet?

“Savior, Like a Shepherd” is the first novel in the “Orphans of the West” series and was released in 2017. Titus Hine has always taken care of others.

He has been provider and protector, despite all of the hardships. He has learned that nobody will help, nobody cares and if he wants to survive he is going to need to rely on his own strength not just for himself but also his family.

Then this stranger shows him the help and kindness that nobody appears willing to. Between her kindness and the lecture that she gives to the Christian Leaders, his life starts taking an unexpected turn for the better. With provision and aid from the local believers things should really be easier, and his burdens lifted. So why does all of it feel as though is spinning out of control?
