Exposing the Pain

Evangelist Sharon Marie Harris'Your past doesn’t have to define your present, nor determine your future'.The 'Sharon Harris Story' is nothing less than a miracle. I was born in the inner city of South Central, Los Angeles, living with a drug dealer and mother of 2 children by age 14. My young life was filled with abuse, neglect, and violence. I was kidnapped at gun point, and I called on the name of Jesus for the very first time; October 19th 1983. After receiving Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, I was filled with the Holy Spirit, equipping me to answer the call to worldwide evangelism. Thus began the journey that miraculously transformed my life forever. Today, I am the best-selling author of the book titled; Exposing the Pain, my path to freedom...'Sharon Harris is the real deal. What she lived through is staggeringly poignant. But what she became is a source of inspiration. Through faith, trust, persistence, belief, she took some insurmountable odds and turned them around. Her story makes the unreal real.' Rick Hamlin, executive editor of Guideposts and author of 10 Prayers You Can’t Live Without I was featured in the Guideposts Feb/Mar edition 'Mysterious Ways'.I am the Co/founder of Hope Alive World Outreach and proud business owner of Harris Cleaning Co...I travel extensively nationally & internationally speaking & inspiring women around the world. My travels have included Nairobi Kenya, Guyana South America, Bermuda, and Freeport Bahamas.However, it was my daughter whom I gave birth to at age 14 who encouraged and accompanied me while enrolling in college. Prior to completing my GED, Chemical Dependency/Mental Health AA, and Human Services Management BS, I only had a sixth grade education. I have appeared on various TV programs which include CBN 700 Club (Amazing Stories) and TBN Trinity Broadcasting Network.My passion to please God caused me to walk into my purpose and I have committed my life to spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the lost strategically targeting women (All ages). I am an anointed vessel, prophetically proclaiming healing, hope and deliverance through the power of God’s love. The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because the Lord hath anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor; He hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised. (Luke 4:18)
