“Bloodline”

We had the chance to talk with author John Turnipseed about his enthralling book, “Bloodline”, which traces his idyllic life with a loving, extended family in 1960′s Alabama, to finding himself in Minneapolis, Minnesota with a father he no longer recognized.  It’s a poignant and important read – hear about it from the man himself.

Hear Marcia’s God Story

More from Minnesota today as we chat with author and professional speaker, Marcia Malzahn. Her story is profound, exciting, faith-filled and powerful – and told in her book, The Fire Within: connecting your gifts with your calling. 

Marcia was born in Nicaragua but when war broke out, their family tried to flee on a Red Cross cargo plane to the Dominican Republic. However, there wasn’t enough room for all of them, so her dad stayed behind. No other airplanes were coming into or out of the country at the time but the same day, one plane miraculously came with a single seat left for her dad to take. Shortly after they were reunited in the Dominican Republic, Hurricane David came and devastated the country but they survived without injury. Over the next seven years, Marcia’s family met a Christian couple from Minnesota who offered to help their family move one at a time to the United States. 

From an immigrant working as a teller at a local bank to an executive in finance, Marcia’s story is one you won’t want to miss!
