TRAPPED FOR 22 YEARS IN A WORLD SHE NEVER CHOSE

She fled a broken home. She spent 22 years in a world that nearly destroyed her. Then God intervened. Jeanne Roberson's story begins with a dysfunctional home she escaped as a young teenager. Lured by false promises of stardom and stability, she was drawn into the adult entertainment industry — exotic dancing and club culture — by someone she trusted. What followed was more than two decades of exploitation, addiction, shattered dreams, and failed attempts to break free. But God never stopped pursuing her. In this powerful testimony, Jeanne shares how a rock-bottom moment and a divine encounter changed everything — leading her out of captivity and into a life of healing, purpose, and restored identity in Christ. Today she is a survivor advocate, author, and speaker whose memoir Shattered for Glory is transforming lives and stirring faith around the world. If you've ever felt trapped — by trauma, shame, addiction, or your past — Jeanne's story is proof that freedom is possible and restoration is real.  Learn more about Jeanne: InspiringSouls.com [http://inspiringsouls.com/] Jeanne's Book: Shattered for Glory #SurvivorStory #ShatteredForGlory #ChristianTestimony #FaithAndRedemption #HealingJourney #GodRestores #SurvivorAdvocate #TraumaToTriumph #FreedomInChrist #HopeAndHealing #BrokenMadeBeautiful #ChristianWomen #RedemptionStory #PurposeThroughPain #TrueStory #MarionMacKenzie
