"I was raised in a very conservative Christian home, and I didn't know my identity. I honestly didn't even know I had authority in Jesus' name to address spiritual warfare. And so when I started reading some books that were showing me that the enemy is real and I have the permission by God to deal with it and address it, it changed my life." - Megan Peeler
