Jane Northrup Glenn is an author, entrepreneur, storyteller, and unapologetic lover of Jesus who believes faith should be practical, people matter more than programs, and ordinary individuals can make an extraordinary difference in the lives of others.

 

Her path has been anything but traditional.

 

Over the years, Jane has worked in human resources, recruiting, workforce development, entrepreneurship, criminal justice reentry, mediation support, housing solutions, and helping people navigate some of life's most difficult seasons. Whether assisting families through conflict, helping individuals coming out of incarceration rebuild their lives, or simply listening to someone who feels stuck, Jane has spent much of her life standing in the gap between people and the problems that overwhelm them.

 

Long before writing books, Jane founded a faith-based staffing company that specialized in hiring men and women with criminal backgrounds. The company was recognized by the State of Colorado and named one of Ministry Today's "21 Gospel Driven Businesses." That experience shaped her belief that meaningful work, personal responsibility, community, and faith can change lives.

 

Jane is the author of God Punched Back and God's Public Option, books born from years of prayer, observation, personal struggle, business experience, political exposure, and what she affectionately calls her daily coffee talks with the Lord. Her writing explores questions of faith, freedom, provision, responsibility, and what it looks like to trust God in uncertain times.

 

Through her ministry, Ask Jane, she offers free conversations focused on Legal Wisdom and Life Guidance, helping people think through difficult situations, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence. Jane believes many of life's biggest challenges are best addressed through practical wisdom, strong relationships, and people willing to help carry one another's burdens.

 

Today, she spends much of her time writing, speaking, encouraging others, and exploring what she calls "Covenant not Government"—the idea that communities, churches, families, and ordinary people can play a larger role in providing care, opportunity, belonging, and hope.

 

When she's not working on new ideas, Jane enjoys spending time with her husband, Darryl Glenn, a retired Air Force Lieutenant Colonel, attorney, and former elected official. Together they enjoy their growing family, grandchildren, two large dogs, and the beauty of Colorado.

 

Most of all, Jane wants her life to reflect the simple prayer found in Isaiah 6:8:

 

"Here am I. Send me."
