Listen in as Julia chats with Karen Twinem, longtime member and co-leader of the support group Loving Someone With Mental Illness. Karen shares her journey of caring for several family members diagnosed with mental illness, and how through her most difficult circumstances, she encounters and learns to walk daily with Jesus. You'll hear the true joy in her voice that can only come from a life deeply intertwined and with daily reliance upon Christ.
