Meet Ammie

Growing in Him

“C.S. Lewis once wrote, “Repentance means unlearning all the self-conceit and self-will that we have been training ourselves into…It means killing part of yourself, undergoing a kind of death.”
When I came into this realization, I knew I would need to die to myself to be remade. I had so much sticking to me – so many things that I had added that I thought were important, and so many cracks and holes that needed to be repaired. I had to unlearn all of the things I had been doing to make it through this life and learn to count on God for everything.â€

– Ammie Bouwman

Have you ever struggled with something that you thought was too big for God? Perhaps it was a failed marriage or bankruptcy or maybe a mental illness that you were told you would have for the rest of your life?

Ammie struggled with each of these things and more, and she discovered that when she finally admitted that she was in over her head and needed God to restore her life, that was when He reached down and pulled her up from the depths of her darkness. With her newfound freedom in Christ, healed from her mental illness and restored and redeemed, she is traveling and telling all those she encounters that there is hope, there is life, and there is a future to all who believe!
