Nancy's Story

Nancy is from Santa Fe, Texas. Her schools include Bay Area Christian High School. She later attended Cameron University for a BA in Music and Oral Roberts University for an MA in Marriage and Family Therapy from their school of Seminary and Theology. More about Nancy:"I've always loved music! I use to sing and play the piano all the time for special events and church. I still do every chance I get. I volunteer at my church two days a week to just help out in any way possible taking care of the awesome instruments played by the many talented people in our church -- Asbury United Methodist Church Tulsa, Oklahoma.. My BA is in Music more specifically Piano and Vocal Performance. I received scholarships for accompaniment to play for all their best students who received scholarships for other various instruments. I have an MA from Oral Roberts University in Marriage and Family Therapy. I worked in that field for a few years. Now I'm most interested in pursuing my writing skills: poetry, inspirational writings, novels, & of course music as well." Always interested in Music. I was able to take private composition lessons at Cameron in 20th century techniques from a marvelous instructor -- Dr. Smith -- a fabulous instructor and more important a true mentor! It has helped me to grow in my musical abilities to include unique instrumentation and share concepts of my life that no one ever really knew existed -- things that were happening to me that no one ever realized or discovered as it is easy to hide one;s pain when one fears the truth that exists in one's life. It is most difficult to accept life as it really is and do all it takes to change the outcome. Praise the Lord, he enabled me to help my parents know the Lord and to choose to be a better person regardless of the many horrors of my life no one knew existed. You may have thought you knew me and many of you knew a part of me, but there is so much more that often hides beneath the surface of true suffering and pain. Hopefully you will read one day of how God spared my life over and over again -- some of which my friends from school knew like that time I almost drowned in Hawaii. But, mostly no one knew! The secrets must remain secret until God enables us to speak the truth -- the known truth that sets us free from the bondage of that pain and agony of a life that should have ended almost before it began. I hope to find ways to eloquently express how my Loving Abba Father carried me through the darkest times of my life and share His Love for me with others through my writings. Look for any book written by Nancy Denise and check it out. My recovery is almost complete as I am finishing what has been 18 1/2 years of recovery that will...Expand for more
finalize around 19+ years of recovery from a lifetime of severe physical, emotional, sexual, psychological and spiritual abuse. I should not be alive today except for the Love of my God! I know the valley of the shadow of death well and I've traveled it often.hand in hand with my Lord Jesus! He has carried me when I could not walk for myself. The past ten years of chronic physical pain that started just before my now ex-husband banished me from our home and the lives of our 4 daughters has brought me full circle to an understanding of all kinds of pain and what it means to truly depend on my Loving Abba, my Trustworthy Savior and Lord and my Comforting Holy Spirit who guides me daily in all I do! I did get my girls 4 months later with full custodial rights but also ended up in a homeless shelter trying to find a way to take care of my children and get the help I needed for physical recovery of damage done to me by my ex-husband as well as 3 spinal injuries resulting in 3 neck surgeries and multiple treatments for low back injuries that continues even today with many spinal treatments to maintain my ability to function and live life without excruciating physical pain 24/7. Keep praying for me if you think of me as I complete my 12-step Celebrate Recovery program and watch "Home Run" the movie coming out April 19th to discover the wonders of this Christian 12-step program that finally puts God front and center in the recovery process of all those who need help of any kind! Much of the movie was filmed here in Tulsa with many of those who work in our church's 12-step program front and center. The baseball scenes were all filmed in our very own old Driller's Stadium. I hope you all come to know me -- really know me as God knows and loves me. I may have appeared controversial at times for I know many did not understand me. I still remember Mr. E's words about me at graduation that I tend to tread where angels fear to tread. Everyone laughed for they remembered Hawaii, but it went much deeper than that and somehow Mr. E knew in his heart that I would certainly end up exactly where God wants me to be and that was how he ended his comments regarding me that day. And he was and still is correct. For I follow the one and only True God to the ends of the world and beyond! He is my All! He is my Everything! He is the I Am of my life and I just try to Be all He asks of me! Thank you to those of you who were my friends in high school! Thank you even to those of who may have only tolerated me with misunderstanding. I hope somehow most of you have good memories though I know you knew so little about me for real. Be at Peace! Be Blessed! And... Serve the Lord with All Your Heart!!! Nancy Denise
