Gibson, Joyce Carol: - Raised by a preacher in a dysfunctional family, Joyce ran from God, had a baby by a married Mafia member, and married an abusive man. Her daughter and grandchildren suffered an abusive marriage. She was a jailer, spent time in a psychiatric hospital, and understands heartache. She met Jesus and dove deeply into His Word, where she finds hope and peace she wants to share. She believes bitterness caused her pancreatic cancer, but God healed her.
