Sarah Young

Sarah Young was a bestselling author known for her inspirational devotionals, particularly the "Jesus Calling" series. Her most notable work, "Jesus Calling," became a global phenomenon, selling over 45 million copies worldwide and appearing on major bestseller lists. She also wrote companion devotionals such as "Jesus Listens," "Jesus Always," "Jesus Today," and "Jesus Lives," as well as adaptations for children, including "Jesus Calling for Little Ones" and "Jesus Calling Bible Storybook." Her writings, rooted in her personal reflections during prayer and Bible study, aimed to foster a deeper connection with Christ.

Before her writing career, Young and her husband served as missionaries in Japan and Australia. Her devotionals emerged from her practice of journaling prayers and scriptural meditations, which she later shared to encourage others in their faith. Despite facing health challenges, she remained dedicated to praying daily for her readers, viewing it as both a privilege and a spiritual responsibility. Young's works continue to resonate with audiences seeking spiritual guidance and comfort.
