Battle-Tested Faith depicts a story of perserverance and the warrior spirirt that surfaced in a young girl as she grew up with a controlling father who manipulated her at every turn. Though she had to silence her thoughts and feelings throughout her childhood and teenage years, she faced her challenges head on with a steadfast faith and determination not to live the remainder of her life in defeat. She would take up the "sword of faith" as her shield to extinguish present and future onslaughts of her natural and spiritual enemies.
Going from fear to faith, she realizes faith in her God will be her armor, and nothing can bring her down. She anchors herself in faith and lives her dreams in spite of any present or future adversity. She believes in victory against all odds, from a bad medical report to a father's rejection to divorce to leaving the only home she ever knew, so she can start her life all over again.
