Welcome back to the 12 Eleven Podcast. Today, I'm honored to sit down with Anna Shivers as she shares her remarkable journey to the cross. For much of her life, Anna was searching for Jesus in all the wrong places, unaware that He had been pursuing her all along. Her early years were marked by deep wounds, including sexual trauma, and the heavy burden of carrying the sins and shame of others. For years, she remained silent about her pain, believing love was something she had to earn—a reflection of the betrayals she'd experienced at the hands of men.

But today, Anna's story is one of transformation. She has come to know the unconditional love of God, realizing that His love is not something we perform for, but a gift we receive. Through His Word, she has discovered the truth about God's character and how the brokenness she once carried was the opposite of what He intended for her life.

Join us as Anna courageously walks us through her journey—one that is both heart-wrenching and awe-inspiring. This is a story of redemption, healing, and the moment she finally met Jesus at the cross. I’m deeply grateful for her willingness to share such a personal and powerful testimony of who God is to her.
