    About this Episode

    We’re really excited for you to hear Hannah Marks share her story with us on today’s episode. Hannah grew up in the UK as a pastor’s kid, and she gave her life to Jesus at age 7. Eventually, she moved to the States to go to college, and while studying for her Masters degree, she was diagnosed with Graves disease and had her thyroid removed. But that was just the start of her journey with medical problems.

    In 2018, she had a stroke and for the next couple of years, Hannah was in and out of the hospital, on multiple medications, and struggling with severe anxiety. It got so bad that Hannah didn’t want to leave her house, and she hit the lowest point she’d ever been at in her life. Although she was walking with Jesus the whole time, she truly believed that God had forgotten about her or that she had disappointed God in some way.

    A few months later, Hannah was given the Bondage Breaker, a book written by Neil Anderson, and she learned who she was in Christ, the reality of the spiritual world, and how to deal with her fear and anxiety. Through that process, God set Hannah free from her anxiety. As other health issues have come up in her life, Hannah’s learned that the body can be out of control, but the mind can be at peace. Today, she’s passionate about sharing her story & helping other women like herself learn these powerful Bibilical truths.

    Lauren Boyt: Understanding the Power of Forgiveness and Letting Christ Be Our Defender

    We have an exciting announcement! Today's Guest is Lauren Boyt, who will be the new co-host of Stories of Freedom Podcast! Lauren is a recent graduate from Baylor University and is Freedom in Christ's new Communications and Content Manager! 

    Lauren grew up in a healthy Christian home. But being the middle of three girls, she began to believe lies that she was not as important as her sisters. The lies of the enemy poured in her whole childhood and by the time she was in high school, she became harsh, angry, and bitter. She set up walls to protect and defend herself which had negative consequences on all her relationships. 

    Then, her parents introduced her to Freedom in Christ. She finally understood that God is her defender and learned how to truly forgive those who had hurt her.

    Rosemary Davidson: Overcoming Abuse and Experiencing the Unconditional Love of God

    Rosemary Davidson: Overcoming Abuse and Experiencing the Unconditional Love of God

    Today’s guest is Rosemary Tong Davidson. Rosemary lives in Los Angeles, California, with her husband, Ronnie. Rosemary’s childhood was unstable, and she suffered both verbal and physical abuse. When she was 8 years old, her aunt and uncle gave her a Bible tract, and she prayed to receive Jesus in her heart. However, her view of herself was damaged due to the abuse and rejection she experienced as a child. Even after she rededicated her life to God as an adult, her walk with God continued to be a sin-confess-sin-confess cycle, and she didn’t understand God’s love for her.

    Not until a couple of years ago when Rosemary was given The Bondage Breaker by Neil Anderson. After reading the book and working through The Steps to Freedom in Christ, Rosemary felt a huge weight lifted. She experienced freedom from tormenting thoughts, and a peace she’d never known. But what impacted her the most was understanding God as her Father and His great love for her. Today, she is overflowing with God’s love and passionate about shining her Father’s light wherever she goes.
