Meet Audra

I’m Audra—a wife, mother, grandmother, mentor at Bethlehem Church in Bethlehem, Georgia, and now a first-time author. My greatest passion is sharing how God has transformed my life and how He can transform yours, too.

For most of my 58 years, I attended church without truly understanding who God is. It wasn’t until about 21 years ago that I finally grasped the depth of His love for me. Can you believe it? The Creator of the universe desires a genuine, intimate relationship with each of us. That realization changed everything.

As a follower of Christ, I’ve discovered the importance of trusting and obeying God’s commands. If you long to hear from Him and grow closer than ever before, there is no other way. When we wholeheartedly seek Him, we discover a testimony—our personal evidence of Christ at work within us—that deserves to be shared to encourage others.

In my first book, I’ve poured out my heart and faith journey, hoping it uplifts and inspires you, whether you’ve been walking with God for decades or are brand-new in your faith. I can’t wait to hear the stories and testimonies you’ll share as well. We’re all on this journey together!

My first book is released:

Marked by the Messiah

Are you living your life on purpose?  Do you sometimes wonder what God is calling you to and how to get there?  When we learn to seek God wholeheartedly and search for answers in His word and through prayer, we are met with truth and a love story like no other.

He meets us where we are with grace and mercy and a love that is never-ending.  And when we take that step…that leap of faith through trust and obedience, God shows us what we were created for.  He created us to be in relationship with Him through His son Jesus-our Messiah and with others in community as we love and care for one another the way Jesus did when He was here on earth.

So, what’s your story?  Have you been Marked by the Messiah?  When we bow at the foot of the cross through trust and obedience and a humble heart, we will be found by a loving Savior!

What are people saying about Marked by the Messiah ?

  • “Your words are familiar, and your actions are so inspiring.”

    “You have put on paper what I think so many Christians have faced in growing up in a Christian home. Your words are familiar, and your actions are so inspiring. Letting others know what you have been through is vital to sharing an experience with a mighty God who seeks us, even when we aren’t seeking Him. I can’t wait to get the book!”

  • She offers deep insights into communication, friendship, and faith…”

    I’m a long-time atheist, so you wouldn’t think I’d enjoy reading a book called Marked by the Messiah. But I did enjoy it. Buckingham’s writing is clear, concise, and thought-provoking. She offers deep insights into communication, friendship, and faith — all in a voice that feels both welcoming and wise. A beautiful first book from a first-time author!

  • “I heartily recommend this book for anyone seeking to go “deeper” in their walk with Jesus…”

    “Audra Buckingham has written a book that clearly explains the pathway to the abundant Christian life. She shares her life’s story in such a way that touches the heart of the reader because of the honest and transparent story that she shares about her life, from her exposure to Christ as a child, to “praying the prayer” to accepting Christ, to wandering in her own life, to finally submitting totally and thoroughly to the life that only walking with Jesus can provide.
    I know that every word of her story is true, because my wife and were blessed to serve as her Children’s Ministers from the time she was in second grade, to growth in our youth group as a teen, to marriage, to career and now, continuing in adulthood. I heartily recommend this book for anyone seeking to go “deeper” in their walk with Jesus to find true joy and God’s perfect pathway to life’s fullest purpose. ”

  • “I was encouraged by how you chose to keep pursuing and learning…”

    “I thoroughly enjoyed joining you on your journey, through written word, to discover Jesus and how He has such great love for us. I was encouraged by how you chose to keep pursuing and learning, not giving up, and most importantly in your courage to obey the Lord. ”

A quote from Audra

  • “It’s that childlike wonder and curiosity that stirs within each of us in search of an adventure, but as we get older, it can lead us to search for truth and move us toward a life of faith.”
