"I have spent my entire adult life as a writer and editor for major daily newspapers," said Glenn. "I have been blessed to have had the opportunity to lead coverage of some of the biggest events of the era, from the Olympics, World Series and Super Bowl to war, natural disasters and presidential elections. I am excited now to have the chance to help communicate the biggest story of all time -- the Good News of Jesus Christ. I am looking forward to my new role with the North Georgia Advocate and to see what the Lord has in store for all of us."
