Pamela Evans trained as a doctor at The London Hospital Medical College, and worked first as a General Practitioner in Highams Park. London E4. Later, a research post in Epidemiology enabled her to continue working while raising a family. Pamela's work on data recording in cerebral palsy research achieved international recognition. The work she undertook with her husband, Stephen Evans, on the life expectancy of affected children, resulted in a published paper which has been used as evidence in the High Court, and is still being cited today.

After moving to Sussex, Pamela was eventually able to leave the epidemiological studies in the hands of others, and entered a phase which prompted some to ask, `When are you going to get a proper job?' What some saw as a lack of a career plan was God's training ground for what lay ahead! Time was available to develop an interest in counselling and to begin to teach adults in the local church and elsewhere.

Opportunities arose to contribute to the training of Christian counsellors, and to lecture to GPs on workaholism and other `respectable' addictions. Such encounters often ended with requests for a book to read, and these prompted Pamela to write "Driven Beyond the Call of God".

In 1994, Pamela was invited to develop and lead what her church calls its "Bodybuilding Course". This provided a fruitful channel for Pamela's enthusiasm for New Testament teaching on the body of Christ. In due course, "Building the Body" allowed this enthusiasm to be expressed in written form.
