Studies show there has been a rise in mental illness over the past few years, with one out of every four adults reporting experiences with the disease. However, as today’s storyteller reminds us, there is HOPE!

Aimee Caverly, from our community group in Raleigh, North Carolina, vulnerably shares her story of battling mental illness for most of her adult life. From extreme anxiety, fear, and paranoia to delusional visions, intense lies from the enemy, and multiple trips to the psychiatric hospital, Aimee is raw about the suffering she faced as she was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder. It wasn’t until she accepted her diagnosis and turned to the Lord that she found healing, purpose, and hope, knowing God can bring light into the darkest of places.

IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:

- It is imperative to have God’s Word infused in your life because “self” creeps towards the negative.

- When you don’t claim your true identity, you claim the lies of the enemy.

- Following Jesus is a lifelong process of God making us more like Him.
