Carrie Sheffield | Mental Health, Healing and Forgiveness
Carrie Sheffield, author of “Motorhome Prophecies,” joins Today’s Conversation to share her remarkable journey from a childhood marked by spiritual and psychological abuse to a renewed faith in Jesus Christ. In this honest and powerful episode, Carrie reflects on how forgiveness became central to her healing — and why she believes there is lasting hope for mental health through Christ. In this episode, Carrie Sheffield recounts her upbringing under the influence of a father who claimed Mormon prophetic authority, enforced fear-based teachings and subjected the family to instability and trauma. After leaving faith behind for over a decade, her pursuit of truth — through science, philosophy and deep soul-searching — ultimately led her to God. Her story is a moving testimony of hope, healing and forgiveness. In her conversation with NAE President Walter Kim, they discuss: * Understanding how the brain’s ability to change offers hope for overcoming mental health challenges;* How Carrie experienced personal healing through prayer and deliverance ministries;* A call to action for the Church to actively engage in addressing mental health with truth; and* How forgiveness is not just a theological idea but a lived reality that brings freedom, healing and redemption.
