From Walking Healed Ministries, LTD (WHM)

When you encounter WHM, you will encounter honesty, integrity, love, guidance, and the presence of the Holy Spirit in every aspect of this ministry. WHM was designed to help people who suffer from depression, anxiety, intimidation, and who struggle with knowing who they are in Christ.

Then we want to help you step out onto your new path and help others find the pathway to healing and an amazing life.

A Bit More About Me

Since my healing from depression and anxiety in 2012, I have not only developed a variety of messages revolving around those topics, but I have been spiritually gifted in how to help others find healing from those issues.

My communication skills have been developed through various speaking engagements and roles, which have helped me to build a unique style which allows me to deliver a message with spiritual power and humor.

I have also been able to use my writing and speaking skills to pay it forward by encouraging and coaching aspiring writers through workshops and private coaching.

I have been married to my high school sweetheart, Don (D.A.) since June 1983. We have three amazing (and grown) children, five grand boys, and one granddaughter. Oh, and two ridiculously funny Chihuahuas. We currently live in West Frankfort, Illinois. When I have free time, I love to hang out with my grandkids. I also love reading (for my enjoyment and for other authors), writing reviews, and blogging. But the most fun is getting to travel with my husband (even if it’s just across town to Sonic).

Topics of Discussion

I speak about my healing quite a bit, but of course, without my healing I wouldn’t be able to do what I do! However, most of the topics I speak and write about are related to spiritual healing and growth, personal growth, family and marriage. Below, you will find a list of topics, with description, but I never limit what the Lord wants to do.

  • Healing: Spiritual, Mental, Physical

~ Depression, Anxiety, and Intimidation – Depression and anxiety are weapons the enemy uses to keep us in bondage and to prevent us from operating in the calling God has on our lives. But Jesus came so that we can have an abundant life (John 10:10) and through Him we can and do have overwhelming victory (Romans 8:37) to step out and do what He has called us to do.

~ Self-Esteem/Self-Worth – Oftentimes we see ourselves as less than due to things that have been said to us in the past. But God says something amazing about each one of us that no one else can deny.

  • Forgiveness

It is important to practice forgiveness, for others and for yourself. It is essential in order to receive forgiveness from God.

  • Purpose

God has a purpose for all of us. I instruct on what that is and how to use your spiritual gifts to walk in your purpose.

  • Identity

God says we are someone special. Throughout His Word, He reveals who He says we are. By discovering our true identity in Christ, we can better understand our purpose.

  • Marriage

Because marriage is a life-long covenant ordained by God, this message is for those who are married, who are considering marriage, and also those whose marriage is struggling. Designed to help find healing and restoration, the message, Marriage 3:5, How to Go All the Way, is designed to help heal your relationship with your spouse and learn what it really means to go all the way.
