Leaning on God's grace, on personal courage, and the power of prayer, Stephanie S. Sawyer has learned and now shares the power of overcoming through God's power and might.  Inspirational victories that enlighten everyone will be found in Stephanie's repertoire. Addressing health, cultural, and spiritual experiences, Stephanie uses heartfelt passion through experience to address current issues. Stephanie retains honesty, encourages others, and advocates for a higher public understanding, particularly addressing epilepsy. Her inborne passion rises naturally for these opportunities. Retaining a Christ centered perspective in her work, she easily shares inspiration and victory with others. Stephanie's faith and music, particularly piano, will always be a theme in her work.  Facing Me: The impossible becoming possible is the victory in Stephanie's life as she dared to hope. After years of living with weekly epileptic seizure invasion, Stephanie was set free from shame through the removal of a segment of her brain, the right temporal lobe. Her ensuing search for a new identity led to a spiritual calling and new life. Her surrender despite doubt to that calling led her down a path of miracles to her beloved gift in music. It is now her ministry to share the joy of music through her piano studio and in community performance. "Hope is ours if we will take it and believe." c. Sawyer  IMPRINTS: God’s grace surmounts every threshold. Stephanie gives account of God acting in her life to break boundaries and confront arenas of fear and  false conceptions. Threatening situations become beacons of light as holy events are unveiled amidst common situations. The sudden "Ah Hah!" moment unites these holy vignettes.Transformation is the unifying theme as God's grace is reveiled.
