FAITH WALKERS REAL TALK with guest JACKIE CARR

I have served in ministry for over 30 years. I am a singer, recording artist, author, and YouTube creator. My journey has taken me through deeply painful seasons-divorce, losing both of my parents to cancer, the murder of my brother, and the passing of my sister less than two years ago at the age of 64. Yet even in the darkest moments, God did not allow my pain to be wasted. Out of those experiences, I was able to write and record 12 songs that came directly from my story. Through it all, I have witnessed the faithfulness of God in ways that continue to shape my life and ministry. https://www.facebook.com/share/1BGmBUYdJJ/?mibextid=wwXIfr
