Cristine Bolley began Wings Unlimited Editorial Services in January 1998 to launch the anointed voices of those who share her passion to reconcile readers to God. Her mission is to refresh people with the knowledge of God’s grace and power through books that are scripturally sound.
She has compiled, co-authored, or ghostwritten more than twenty-five titles since beginning her freelance service, and she has edited dozens of other titles. Many of the books that she developed have been sold through popular general interest franchises, such as Walmart and Barnes and Nobles, while simultaneously holding positions on the Best-seller Lists in the Christian Marketplace. Several currently hold best-selling positions with their respective publishers.
