Mark Arens

Mark Arens is an award-winning author, and he’s dedicated to helping people find true freedom through forgiveness, using Jesus' teachings in ways that are often overlooked. Mark and his wife, Julie, are proud parents of two fantastic teenagers, two little dogs, three barn cats, and a dozen chickens. Mark is an avid outdoorsman who has canoed and hiked thousands of miles. More than anything else, Mark’s true love is spending time with the Lord. Hanging out with God, reading his Book, or listening to God inspired podcasts throughout his life has prompted him to create Thumbuddy children’s books to help kids discover God’s love at a tender age. He also wrote "Why Wait To Be Happy?" and "Cure the Cancer of Unforgiveness" to help believers become the best version of themselves! "Cure the Cancer of Unforgiveness" was the Gold Medal Winner in Christian Biblical Counseling from the international-renowned Reader's Favorite Book Awards. As the founder of Little Big Things, Mark enjoys helping people “Tweak the little things, to rock their world in a great big way!” To this end, Little Big Things has created easy to watch, daily devotional videos to help people grow in their faith. His hope is you will experience the abundant life Jesus came to give.
