I was raised in a Christian home and served the Lord most of my life. At the age of 32 I found myself depressed and I had stagnated in my walk with the Lord. I knew of God's love but never really experienced it. For the first time I cried out to Him and asked for a revelation of His love.Very soon after God answered my prayer and my life began to change. The word opened up to me in a whole new way. Then God began teaching me strategies that would set me free from the many areas that caused me to feel defeated and bound. God also started preparing me to minister to others so they too could experience the same freedom I was experiencing. Thirteen years later Eagles Arise Ministries was founded. Since that time I have had the opportunity to minister to countless families and individuals and assist them in breaking free of strongholds that have caused them to feel defeated.

Carleigh

Before I met Carleigh at E.A.M I could not hold down a job. I was discouraged and it caused a great deal of strain on my marriage. One of the first things Carleigh asked me was, "did anyone in your past ever tell you that you would not amount to anything?" I was surprised and told her that those words had been spoken over me often. We walked through a process that included forgiveness. I literally felt a release right after we prayed. Very soon after our meeting I got a new job that I loved, with good pay. For the first time I remained at the same job for several years.

We had been married over 30 years before we met Carleigh and our marriage was in trouble. We were not happy together and things seemed hopeless. Carleigh met with us on several occasions and we began to learn that if you have been carrying around wounds from before your marriage you will just bring them into your marriage. As we began to experience healing in our individual lives we saw our marriage improve. Six years after meeting  Carleigh we can both say we are different people. We are so thankful to God for the work He has done in us as individuals and bringing restoration to our marriage.
