In this episode of Streamin' With a Purpose, we meet Andrea Rose Butler who says her pain is her gift to the world. Whatever you go through, just keep moving. Find your purpose in whatever you go through.
Andrea is a native of Jamaica, West Indies and Army veteran who served her adopted country both on foreign and domestic soil. She is a survivor of child abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, and breast cancer. Andrea has taken the things that have happened to her in life and turned them into building blocks for the meaning and message that she brings to the women she encounters, providing hope and healing through a relationship with Christ Jesus. She is a Licensed Minister of the Gospel, and author of the following books: “Single Parents in Pursuit of God: Thriving in a Barren Place,” "Becoming a Woman God Can Use: Lessons from God’s Female Board of Directors," "Reflections from a Thirsting Soul," "The Writer’s Toolkit for Beginners," "The Incredible Journey: Shattered but I’m Not Broken," "Renewing Your Dreams: Living Purposefully at Any Age," and "Just for Me: The Power of God's Promises."

She is the founder and president of The Becoming Woman’s Network, LLC, which reaches out to women around the world via the Internet to inspire them to reach their God-given destiny and purpose, as well as The Becoming Woman’s conference and Life on Purpose workshops. She is the co-founder of The Becoming Woman’s Foundation, a 501c3 organization whose vision is to provide the much-needed care and resources primarily to young ladies, aged 16-25, who are transitioning out of the foster care system and/or living in underserved communities.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
