And on top of that, she wasn’t only a woman, but also a mother and the leader of a church, school, and global community — and she deeply valued accountability, healthy self-care and relational care, alongside the development of your spiritual gifts and calling.

I remember how she shared that Sunday about training her toddlers to see in the Spirit, and how natural it became for them. She gave an example of her now-young-adult daughter, who, through spiritual discernment, was able to protect several friends on her secular hockey team from a harmful experience.
She also shared how she helped her son see Jesus when he was nervous about an exam.
And how one of the children’s leaders in the church received healing and deliverance because of what her kids saw in the spirit realm while playing in the ball pit.

Through all these experiences and her powerful prophetic culture and lifestyle, I felt deeply empowered, released, and recognized to embrace and live out my own spiritual gifts and destiny.
