Episodes Notes

Carrie Sheffield's upbringing was anything but normal. She was the fifth of eight children with a violent, mentally ill, street musician father who thought he was a modern-day Mormon prophet destined to become U.S. president someday.


Growing up, Sheffield moved around a lot. They often lived like drifters, camping in sheds, tents and motorhomes. In her lifetime, Carrie attended a total of 17 public schools.


She eventually escaped and found her way back to God.


Today on Connections, Carrie shares her experience. She also talks about her new book, Motorhome Prophecies: A Journey of Healing and Forgiveness.
