GRATEFUL FOR ELEVEN YEARS

This company is so much more than jewelry.

 It's my testimony, and my heart's desire for God.

He has used the most excruciating pain, to create the most miraculous transformation, and I cannot rest until I tell the whole world.

 

 

My prayer is to take my message as far as I possibly can. I plan to speak publicly (and often), to start hosting workshops (and retreats), and to teach what I've learned about the Bible ~ how to read it and apply it to you life.

For I have discovered that God's word is the Ultimate, Eternal Life Coaching Book.
