Beth grew up with her mother constantly criticizing her and making her feel like she wasnt capable of doing things on her own. When she was nineteen she escaped her home life by eloping with Nathan, a twenty-nine year old who turned out to be as critical and controlling as her mother. Her life changed when she met Tammy while working at a Day Care Center. Not only did they become friends but Tammy told her about God and His son Jesus and how He could change her life. During a major crisis in Beths life, God saved her. Tammy was there to support her and explained to her that God would give her the strength to get through this crisis and others she may encounter. In the years that followed she experienced good times but also some serious times. Through Gods grace she learned to depend on His strength to get through them.
