Jenna remembers a loving childhood. Both parents were involved in her life. God provided them with plenty to care for their needs. Jenna went to church with her family and remembers knowing about the Lord.

When she was nineteen, Jenna followed the influence of a boyfriend and tried marijuana for the first time. It led to drinking and other unhealthy decisions.

“My relationship became mentally and emotionally abusive,” Jenna recalls.

Even though Jenna escaped that toxic relationship, she continued to pursue love in all the wrong places. She got to the point where she couldn’t go a day without drinking. “That’s when I knew I had an issue,” she says.

As she opened her heart to help, God led Jenna to a supportive church where she got baptized and joined a recovery group. From there, she learned about Hoving Home.

Jenna learned how to have a relationship with God and let go of the shame of her past. She had a supportive community around her as she began to walk in faith, and she had tools to overcome the challenges and temptations she once gave into.

The Lord has rescued her from anxiety and depression and her dependence on alcohol. She turns to the Word of God for guidance and trusts the Spirit to guide her in her decisions.

Today, Jenna gives God all the praise for the changes in her life.

She is also thankful that so many in Hoving Home’s loving community gave her a safe space to heal, learn, and grow. Her story has revealed God’s glory.
