Love Never Fails

10/24/2026

This week on LNF Radio, we're joined by Valerie Brown, LNF’s Prayer Evangelist, founder of Global Prayer Support Services, and our in-house Lead Intercessor! Valerie supports Love Never Fails’ crisis care services and outreach efforts to assist individuals impacted by s*x trafficking and exploitation.

Today, Valerie shares her personal journey through 16 years of domestic violence, beginning with childhood abuse in a large family where verbal threats and physical punishment shaped her early experiences. She reflects on how those experiences influenced her relationships later in life and the journey toward healing.

Valerie and the Love Never Fails team are committed to offering support and prayer to those facing hardship. If you or someone you know needs support, our hotline is available 24/7: (844) 249-2698. You are not alone 💜
