About the Author

Holly Garrison is a mother of four from the Appalachian Mountains in West Virginia. She began her career as a teach with a B.A. in secondary Education from Marshall University. She continued her education and graduated with a Doctorate of Chiropractic from the prestigious Life University in Marietta, GA.

Beginning her career as a teacher and raising four children gives her a unique insight to young people and the challenges they are facing with their faith in todays very secular world.

Being raised in the bible belt surrounded by Christians helped her develop her own personal relationship with Christ. Raised in a family deeply rooted in Christian ministry—her great-great-grandfather founded Hissom Holiness Tabernacle in 1933—she has experienced both the heights of faith and the depths of doubt.

After years of arguing with God about sharing His message, dramatic personal experiences led her to surrender to the calling. She describes herself as an "anti-role model" who has learned grace through failure and discovered that God's love is not dependent on human perfection. Her first book Through Christ: Divine Frustration to Perfect Grace is available now in paperback and eBooks.

Holly currently lives in Georgia with her children, where she continues to learn obedience while sharing the message that God says we are all worthy of His love.

Through Christ presents a revolutionary yet biblically grounded perspective on God's relationship with humanity, arguing that God's love evolved from frustration to perfect empathy through Christ's human experience. This accessible theology book reframes familiar Bible stories to show how God's journey toward understanding humanity culminated in the ultimate act of grace at the cross.

Unlike traditional systematic theology, this book reads like a conversation with a friend who has wrestled with faith, failed, and discovered grace in the midst of her own brokenness. It addresses the doubts and questions that drive many young adults away from faith while providing parents with fresh language to discuss complex spiritual concepts with their children.
