Testimonials
As a result of being in the Courageous Hearts class, hearing the DVD's, reading and working through Sherilyn's book, counseling with her, the power of prayer, and God's loving grace, I am on the road to healing my heart, loving God with all my heart, getting rid of the strongholds in my heart that have been blocking my ability to love as God has loved me, and healing my relationships with my husband and my kids. I have hope for the first time in many years...
...Identifying strongholds on your heart, forgiving those who've hurt you, and giving it all to the Lord so your heart can be wholly His, is an incredible process and so freeing! I literally feel like I have a new heart, light in my eyes and life in my soul once again! It doesn't matter what those who have hurt me in the past have done, or will do.
Hopeful and Smiling once again in CO.

I cried all through the first class and was deeply touched, God was there with me. During the ten classes, I was diagnosed that I have a severe heart problem; cared [for] and assured that Jesus is right here caring [for] me all the time; and given a miracle medicine to treat my heart: unconditional love. From the class I learned that the problem is not simply [that] a family member abused me, or a matter of blaming somebody else for my damage; it is all about my own heart...
Should I follow my flesh pattern or should I follow Jesus...
...I am so thirsty to God's words, and His words become so real to me. I am in the journey caring [for] my own heart and others, and decided will never turn back...
...I hope someday somehow, I can help God's people the way Courageous Hearts helps me.
...I would strongly recommend every Christian to look at their hearts some time in their life just as what Courageous Hearts brings up.

Negativity, depression, anxiety, racing thoughts, sent to a MD for a check-up, but nothng medically was wrong. I wanted to trade places with a dying woman...Courageous Hearts Ministries • Montrose, CO 81403 • (970) 290-2005 • info@courageousheartsministries.org © 2011–2025 Courageous Hearts Ministries, Inc.

...I had a screaming meltdown, without the fireworks, parade and picnic.) I wanted to runaway from home (I'm 54). Sending my teenage son away to live with someone, anyone, had great appeal.
I was trapped in negative circular thinking.. The future was bleak, with no relief in sight. How can a Christian woman, saved, ensured a place in heaven, be so miserable? Was this really God's plan for me? The book was valuable in discerning what comes from God and what comes from the enemy (Satan).The enemy placed lies (i.e. barnacles) on my heart, decades of lies, which I fell for hook, line and sinker. I truly didn't realize the enemy was after my heart, irregardless of my salvation.
Sherilyn showed me step by step how to recognize these lies, how to bring them to God and how to stop them from rooting in my heart. What really made me mad, was realizing the enemy figures out what works and doesn't invent new patterns... He is so lazy and uncreative. I felt scammed!
None of these lies were from God. Lies prevented me from: God's abundance, a larger outlook on life, poor self-esteem, more anger than love, and self-imprisonment in my mind. My heart is now barnacle-free, and unburdened. I feel well and happy. I am wise to the enemy's lies. God has Truth in store for me, not lies. I was on a sandy foundation of lies from the enemy, not anymore. Now, on a firm foundation of God's favor and blessing, able to recognize and to guard my heart from the enemy. All good things come from God. I choose God's favor and blessings over me. The war in my heart was won by God. It doesn't belong to the enemy anymore. This is an enlightening book written by a very wise woman.
