I love Gina Helms. She was my Bible and psychology teacher in middle school and high school but quickly grew into so much more - a life coach and "mom" as a lot of her students including myself had refered to her. Even back then she was able to provide us with guidance, strong Biblical influence, and healing with combined rational thinking and scripture.

Fast forward 15 years later after I took a massive detour and a divorce she was able to help me work through some mental road blocks and help me come to realize some mistruths and fears I had were not accurate, not items to be fearful of, and the losses were just loses not meant for me. I went from being very broken to being back in the presence of someone I respected and who would give me an honest Biblical and professional psychological perspective without being cold. She helped me come together as a person as a child (as best she could via school and church). She then helped the broken adult that came back home after being away for six years without judgment. She has a true talent for making those around her feel accepted and inspired while pointing them to God the whole time. I can't thank her enough for all the positive influence she had on me as a child and fixing my "spirit woman" as an adult. I try to emulate her influences daily and hope I touch others hearts and lives like she has mine and those around me.
