Author, speaker, and ministry worker Karen Wingate tells the story in her award-winning book, With Fresh Eyes, of how she grew up labeled legally blind, how, at age 55, she received the gift of improved eyesight she had never experienced before, and how all of us can see God in new ways if we pay attention to His creation and His work as if we are seeing it for the first time. Karen and her husband, Jack, have two daughters as well as two grandchildren.
