Episodes Notes

Shelley Thody's childhood started great. She went to church regularly and knew that she loved Jesus. 

As she grew older, she stopped reading the Bible and grew further away from Jesus. 

By the time she was in grade 12, she had moved, met new people and made some unhealthy choices. 

As she grew further away from God, she became involved in an abusive relationship. Once that relationship ended, she started to feel depression setting in. 

After three years of dealing with some extreme emotions, Shelley Thody was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. She eventually hit rock bottom and attempted suicide. 

She survived and realized that God wasn't done with her yet. Miracles started happening in her life, and she was drawn back to God.

Today on Connections, Shelley shares her powerful testimony and how she's using her diagnosis to help others.
