Hello, listeners, and welcome to another episode of "Passion and Purpose with Pamela," where we explore the lives and legacies of those who live with hunger and function, impacting the world one step at a time. Today, we're privileged to have an exceptional guest whose life story is a testament to resilience, dedication, and unwavering faith.
Joining us is Rev. Dr. Cheryl Gunter-Edwards, a dynamic and compassionate leader whose extensive journey across various fields and continents has shaped her and inspired countless others.
Dr. Gunter-Edwards comes with a rich academic palette, equipped with a bachelor's degree in forensic psychology, a master's in counseling psychology—where she achieved the prestigious Summa Cum Laude distinction—and a Doctorate in Christian Counseling. Her thirst for knowledge is matched only by her commitment to serve, a trait she exhibited profoundly during her time in the U.S. Army as a Drill Sergeant. Cheryl's military tenure is decorated with honors, including deployments in Desert Storm, Turkey, and Bosnia.
Cheryl's heart beats with profound love and compassion—evident in her role as a sister, daughter, niece, aunt, and great-aunt, not to forget a devoted wife to her husband, John. In 2021, she answered a divine call, stepping into ministry as a licensed Minister, and was ordained as a Reverend in late 2023. Her spiritual roots are deeply embedded in the Tabernacle Baptist Church, her spiritual residence for over four decades.
In her advocacy, Dr. Gunter-Edwards extends her hand to the intellectually developmentally disabled community, teaching skills that foster independence and dignity. Her work highlights her professional prowess and dedication to those often left in the margins of society, including veterans and the voiceless.
Today, we'll hear more about her life, motivations, and mission. Rev. Dr. Cheryl Gunter-Edwards, a beacon of service, faith, and advocacy, will join us to share her incredible journey and the profound impact of living a life driven by passion and purpose.
