Season 6 - Episode 13 - Finding Gratitude in Finding The Way Through

This week I speak with Lee Spotts who is a Lover of God, purser of His heart, wife, mom, high school teacher, artist, writer, and survivor of abuse.  She believes that everyone has a unique story and that we all have fought battles and carry battle scars. Her story is one of abuse overcome by faith. The testimony of her life is: “Sometimes God does not remove the obstacles. He makes a way through them.” Lee’s mother suffered from mental illness, later in life to be diagnosed with a form of schizophrenia and 3 multiple personalities. After years of being caught in the vicious cycle of abuse, she finally freed herself from it at 26. Her husband and she have been together for 39 years, 34 years of marriage so far.  She has 3 beautiful children, 2 biological children, and after enduring 10 miscarriages adopted their 3rd child who is now 17 years old. They are big Disney fans but also like to travel and see other parts of the world. She has one grandchild to date with more to come. As she continues to teach on the high school level, she is currently writing the following 3 books in this series. The next book will continue her story from when she met her husband, the 3rd book will tell the tale of the trials and tribulations of the adoption process—lastly, life after the adoption and the attack she encountered after she published her first book. Lee also has a call to write a young teen series on etiquette in this modern world. We look at her childhood up to the present to find the beautiful thread of Jesus in her life.
