Growing up as a child in an environment of physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, I bore the scars that many years in this environment leaves on an individual. Carrying these damaged emotions from my childhood into my adulthood. At the age of 24, I prayed and received Christ as my Saviour. I lived many years lacking the assurance of my salvation, and ultimately feeling distant in my relationship to God. I felt guilty for poor choices, and past mistakes in my life, and was living in defeat as a Christian.

In March 2004, I surrendered to God’s call upon my life to be a disciple of Jesus Christ, and to fulltime ministry. God, who is rich in love, grace, and mercy, began to teach me the truth of His Word, lifting the veil from my eyes, and renewing my mind. In August 2005, through the preaching and teaching of Rev. Chris Hodges, founder and President of Abiding Above Ministries, I came to understand the truth of (Galatians 2:20), my identity in Christ, and the Spirit-filled life. On January 1, 2007, I joined the team of Abiding Above Ministries where I currently serve as Personal Assistant to Rev. Chris Hodges.

Today I live in victory, crucified with Christ, filled with the Holy Spirit, knowing that I am in Christ and Christ is in me, and sharing these great truths with others.
