Kristen first met Sonia in 2016 when she faced herself and began to allow God to mold her character and renew her mind. Kristen has a passion to see people set free from the lies of the enemy, understand the authority they walk in as children of God, and live in complete freedom the way God intended.
In 2018 Kristen received her Associate of Applied Science Degree in Substance Abuse Counseling and is a certified Basic Substance Abuse Counseling Intern. Kristen and her husband Jerard share in raising four beautiful and lively children together.
