Kristen Smeltzer refers to herself as “an ordinary girl with an extravagant God.” Along her journey—and especially during a painfully dark season of spiritual warfare involving one of her sons—God taught Kristen a Biblical strategy for overcoming spiritual attacks on our identity. Her message will empower hearers to walk through their offenses with God and come to a greater place of intimacy with the Lord.

Life struggles, traumas and spiritual attacks tempt us to buy into the enemy’s lies that God is not the good, loving and all-powerful Father He says He is. Believing those lies wreaks havoc in our lives. DON’T CHEAT THE BUTTERFLY will enable you to see redemption in your story and discover your God-given identity, destiny and calling.

How God Healed My Son of Marijuana Induced Schizophrenia

When my son smoked weed and appeared to experience a marijuana induced mental breakdown, God provided a simple yet profound Biblical strategy that led to his complete healing. This is a portion of our testimony.

“Have you ever experienced something in your life you never thought would touch you or your family? Have you ever felt like, ‘God! I thought we were friends, you and me? I thought you loved me. You don’t even seem to be acting according to Your Word.’ …I have.”
