Norma Jesus is an Hispanic hockey mom in Plano, TX. Her first book, Christmas Bible Readings, was published after receiving overwhelming support on the Kickstarter.com crowd-sourcing website. Norma has been married for 23 years and her idea for the book came after her children went away to school at the US Military Academy at West Point, NY, Westmont College in California, and high school at Valley Forge Military Academy in Pennsylvania. Norma writes: "I rediscovered the term Advent and discovered it's meaning for the first time during the 15 years I home-schooled my three children. When they had all left for schools in other states, I wrote down all the passages we'd used for Advent reading through the years, wanting to make it easy for my children to continue the tradition. When friends asked for a copy of my collection, I realized I was not the only one who had never found an Advent book that was daily readings of only Scripture, organized as an overview of the Bible." Norma is active at The Mission in Dallas, a Christian ministry to at-risk children, and, donates a portion of her book proceeds to that ministry.
