As a relationship junkie, I spent most of my life in bondage to a low self-esteem and rejection. So...I went looking for love to heal the pain. Men were my drug of choice. In romance and relationships I was able to escape issues and reality. And what a great hiding place they were. No one even suspected I was running for cover.   I learned when I was a kid: the best hiding place is where no one would ever look.     Once I found freedom in Christ, I began my recovery from relationship addiction. Today, I have healthy relationships with three of the best men in the world: Jesus, my husband, John, and my son Garrett. But I can't settle for just my own personal freedom. I want other women to be free also.  To know more about Christy, go to: christyjohnson.org

We all have a story.... Some of us it's about struggles with love as Christy struggled once.  For others it's about other issues like breaking free from abusive relations, addictions or recovery from a deeply broken heart. You may need healing in your body or in your mind. And there are those who haven't really been loved, who don't know what it truly means to be loved for always. I too once longed to be loved in a way that no man had ever loved me. There was a place that existed inside me that was lonely and empty. I needed to be loved and I needed to be healed from the not so perfect love I had once experienced. Because of this, I closed the door to my heart locked that door and threw away the key. It remained shut and locked tight for many years. I never believed I would be enough for someone to love for always....  This year's Cinderella Ball will be about the locked door of your heart. Is there a key that will unlock Love, Hope, and Healing? More importantly, who holds that key... Come join us for a Powerful Message by Published Author, Conference Speaker and Mentor to women, Christy Johnson.
