I was raised in a Christian home, saved as a teen. But I never understood what having a close personal relationship with Christ was till I was in my mid-forties. At that time, I started attending a great church and I got connected with a group of ladies. I learned about modesty, self-worth, godly dating, community awareness, and how to help other women gain their identity in Jesus Christ.

After an unhealthy relationship, I took one year off of dating. This is called a “purpose pause.” I wanted to pursue my relationship with Christ. After many years of emotional trauma, falling in love with God was the best thing I’ve ever done.

I took a class called The Freedom Class by Debbie Wallace. In this class, I learned to break free and heal from a heart bondage. It was seven steps to freedom in Christ. We were coached on putting on the full armor of God as presented in Ephesians 6. 

I’m eternally grateful for this class and for the grace God gave me to become a healthy, whole woman of God. I have two beautiful daughters and one granddaughter.
