About the Author
Pastor Lurna Cumby is a pastor, speaker, author, and devotional writer with a passion for helping people recognize the hand of God in every season of life. Her greatest desire is to encourage others to grow in their relationship with Christ and discover that even life's most difficult moments can become places where God reveals His faithfulness.
Alongside her husband, Bishop Sam Cumby, she serves as Senior Pastor of Behind The Veil Church in Athens, Texas, where they are committed to leading people into the presence of God, building strong disciples, and creating a church where healing, hope, and transformation can flourish.
Through her writing and teaching, Pastor Lurna shares biblical truth with warmth, honesty, and practical encouragement. She has a unique way of helping readers see God's purpose in ordinary moments and reminding them that no season of life is beyond His redeeming power.
None of It Is Wasted was born from her own journey of walking with God through seasons of joy, waiting, loss, growth, and restoration. It is her prayer that every reader will come away with a deeper confidence in God's faithfulness, a renewed ability to recognize His hand at work—even when they cannot yet see the whole picture—and the assurance that God never wastes a single season surrendered to Him.
When she's not writing or serving in ministry, Pastor Lurna enjoys spending time with her family, encouraging others, and continuing to discover the faithfulness of God in everyday life.
