Charley Rose is an 'old soul'; mature at an early age and saying big words long before her playmates. She enjoyed an incredible, perfect childhood full of innocence and love.

 So what could possibly lead this role model and Homecoming Queen to bury her emotions with an eating disorder? How did this very confident young lady find herself concerned with what others thought about her and eventually spending 5 years at rock bottom with alcohol and drugs? As a 2020 high school graduate impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, Charley found her boredom and curiosity leading her down a dangerous path of lies, ignoring all the warning signs, while chasing instant gratification.

Then one summer without distractions, she found herself back home rediscovering the pure joy of being with her family. Even though she couldn’t sleep at night knowing God was pursuing her, Charley couldn’t shake her hesitations about fully committing herself to becoming God’s daughter. Being ‘all in’ required a leap of faith she wasn’t quite ready for.

 Finally, after a strong desire to rekindle a relationship with one of the most influential people in her life, a sleepover with an old high school friend, and a spontaneous visit to camp led her towards discovering the true essence of TRUTH and LOVE.

"I finally quit thinking and obeyed; and that was the change."

 Today, as you listen, you hear my heart for this sweet soul that holds a very special place in my heart. Let's explore Charley Rose's journey to uncover the surprising twists that shaped her life.
