Episode 56: Ty Jones, Bullied, Now Contagious Joy

One80

Tytiyana "Ty" Jones was a victim of intense bullying. It caused her to have problems with self-image, propelled her to self-harm and even brought her to suicidal ideation. It was her brother who encouraged her, prayed for her and kept her alive, while himself incarcerated. Ty reclaimed her identity in Christ, able to now tackle the world with courageous faith and contagious charm, now serving as president of the Wheaton College Gospel Choir.
