About 

Al Carraway is a convert to the Church of Jesus Christ, writer, multi-award-winning international speaker, and author of the best-selling books, "Finding Yourself in the New Testament," "Wildly Optimistic," "More Than the Tattooed Mormon," "My Dear Little One," and "Cheers to Eternity!" 

​

She has spent the last 12 years traveling Worldwide inspiring others of her conversion and faith through difficult times. As well as either by bus or boat, guiding church history tours and seminars at sea.
Her passion is to tell everyone that happiness exists, and it comes from Jesus. That He's real and He is tangible. And how to find and love Him in the hard, in the unwanted, and the unexpected. Because through it all, with God, we have every reason to be wildly optimistic. 

​

After a decade spent in Arizona and Utah, she is now living with her husband, Ben, and her three kids, back where she was raised, in New York.
