Words of Life: Weekly Christian Podcast with Testi... - "God Sees Me": Hannah's Powerful Story of Faith, Disability, and Belonging
Description
What does true belonging look like?
This week on Words of Life, we pause our Biblical Justice roundtable series to share a deeply moving testimony from Hannah Boyd, a young woman whose life has been marked by extraordinary challenges, unwavering faith, and contagious joy.
After suffering a traumatic brain injury as an infant, doctors believed Hannah would never walk, talk, or live independently. Yet God had other plans.
In this heartfelt conversation with Major Anne Westmoreland, Hannah shares how God carried her through childhood, a devastating mental health crisis, and years of feeling overlooked by churches. She also explains how finding The Salvation Army gave her something she'd been longing for all her life: a place where she wasn't defined by her wheelchair, but loved simply as Hannah.
