Sheila grew up watching her father's extreme rages and domestically abusing her mother. Her childhood was so bad that as an adult she was unable to recognize her own abusive relationship because nothing ever seemed as bad as her father. Sheila turned to Jesus and Celebrate Recovery and is a true testimony of the healing power of God!
