Welcome to my website. I'm Betty Collier, a wife, mother, nurse, author, and child of the King. I describe myself as a nurse by profession, author by passion, and storyteller by the grace of God.
I began this journey in 2009 with the sole purpose of bringing honor and glory to God. I dreamed about the front cover of what I thought would be my first and only book and immediately began writing Living Inside The Testimony the very next morning.
Now I'm a 9x bestselling, 7x award-winning inspirational Christian author working on my 13th and 14th book at the same time. (One is a children's book; the other is inspirational christian fiction.)
My desire is to inspire and encourage readers with my Living Inside the Testimony nonfiction book series, which feature emotional journeys of love, hope, faith, compassion, forgiveness, and triumph.
In my fictional work, The Birthday Gift book series, I take you on intriguing tales of heartbreak and hope, leaving you in suspense until the very end. What these books have in common is they all beautifully deliver the gospel message found in John 3:16.
On a personal note, I've been married since 1986 to the absolute love of my life, William Collier. We first met in middle school where he was a basketball player, and I was a cheerleader. His near fatal head injury (resulting from an assault by a classmate) requiring emergency brain surgery to save his life a week before high school graduation was the divine catalyst that cemented our relationship. We are the proud parents of two baby boys who are now in their 20's and a daughter-in-love surely sent as a gift from above to join our family.

As an inspirational storyteller, it gives me no greater joy to receive feedback from a reader about how my writing has touched someone's life. I am honored to share comments from a reader in her very own words:
"I have learned much through your books. I am encouraged and uplifted by the common threads that bind us to one another. It is a journey this life of learning and teaching from one to the other. The best we as humans can hope to achieve is a sense of well being is in aiding one another in any way that uplifts, encourages, supports or sustains their livelihood. I am certain you will have continued success. You are a great writer and teller of truths, it’s refreshing to read and a privilege that not all of us get to experience so I am honorably moved."
