Valerie Duran shouldn’t be alive. Her blood pressure was so high, doctors didn’t expect her to survive the stroke — let alone speak again, walk again, or teach teenagers about the gospel. But God had other plans.

In this raw and powerful interview, Valerie shares her medical trauma, spiritual journey, and the slow, miraculous road back to life, faith, and purpose. This isn’t a polished testimony. It’s a survivor’s honest account of brokenness, shame, hope, and transformation — and how suffering brought her face-to-face with Christ.

🔹 Topics include:
– Life after a massive hemorrhagic stroke
– Losing speech, memory, and independence
– The painful return to faith through disability
– How God used her healing to reach others
– The unlikely journey from victim to ministry

📖 Key Scriptures:
Romans 5:3–5 – “Suffering produces endurance… character… hope.”
2 Corinthians 12:9 – “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
Psalm 73:26 – “My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart…”
