Gabrielle Meyer: What Happens When Our Dreams Shape Our Heart

Summer Reading Series! Ever have a dream that takes longer than you expected? God can use the dreams that He places inside us to shape our hearts and bless others in unexpected ways. Gabrielle Meyer had a love of reading and history that turned into storytelling of her own.  She kept going despite rejection and criticism with some encouragement from special people in her life.

Gabrielle Meyer lives on the banks of the Upper Mississippi River with her husband and four children. As an employee of the Minnesota Historical Society, she fell in love with the rich history of her state and enjoys writing historical and contemporary novels inspired by real people, places, and events. The river is a constant source of inspiration for Gabrielle, and if you look closely, you will find a river in each of her stories. When Gabrielle is not writing, you might find her homeschooling her children, cheering them on at sporting and theatrical events, or hosting a gathering at her home with family and friends.
