At this point, I lost my daughter, my home, my car, and my mind. My mind was so far gone that I
thought I was on a reality TV show and I was the only one not getting paid. When all the “fun”
finally caught up with me, I sat in Bell County jail unsure of how I got there and where I would
go next. Then, my mom heard about a place in Barbourville called Hope City from the social
worker. When Scott and Tammie came to interview me in Bell County jail, my mind was so far
gone that they weren’t sure they could help me. Nevertheless, they came back for me a week
later and brought me to Hope City on January 10, 2017.
For years, the devil told me I wasn’t worth anything and I’d be better off dead. He also told me
that I had done too much bad for anyone to want me.
At Hope City, they taught something different. They told me about a Heavenly Father that cared
for me in spite of all the bad I’d done. A Father that could mend all that I had broken and
restore everything I’d let the enemy steal from me. A Father that gave His only Son, Jesus, for
me. Real love.
God restored my mind and my relationships. He gave me a godly husband, 4 beautiful
daughters, a job I love, and church family that exceeds anything I could imagine.
He is calling us to walk with Him. We weren’t made to walk this life alone. We weren’t made to
carry these burdens. We were made for Him. Do you know Him? Are you walking with Him?
Don’t keep walking alone.”

“All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.”   

– John 6:37 KJV
