In "The Lost Apostle" award-winning journalist Rena Pederson investigates a little known subject in early Christian history - the life and times of the female apostle Junia. Junia was an early convert and leading missionary whose story was "lost" when her name was masculinized to Junias in later centuries. "The Lost Apostle" unfolds like a well-written detective story, presenting Pederson's lively search for insight and information about a woman some say was the first female apostle.
Rena Pederson's distinguished career in journalism includes serving for sixteen years as editorial page editor of the Dallas Morning News. She is a former finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and was a member of the Pulitzer Prize board for nine years. A winner of multiple writing awards, Pederson is the author of two books-What's Next? Women Redefining Their Dreams in the Prime of Life (Perigee/Penguin Putnam, 2001) and What's Missing? Inspiration for Women Seeking Faith and Joy in Their Lives (Perigee/Penguin Putnam, 2003). She has appeared on PBS, CNN, The OprahWinfrey Show, Fox News, MSNBC, and ABC-TV. Pederson earned a bachelor's degree, with honors, from the University of Texas at Austin and a master's in journalism from Columbia University in New York. She is an active member of Highland Park United Methodist Church in Dallas and has two sons, Greg Gish and Grant Gish.
