Dr. Sarah Grace, best known as Dr. Grace, is an author, speaker, television and podcast host, and soul care provider for individuals, influencers, leaders, and public figures.
Dr. Grace is well known for her passionate and authentic approach to sharing her personal story of rebirth and radical transformation, coupled with Biblical teachings delivered with such depth that they not only inspire audiences with short-lived motivation and emotional responses but also ignite spiritual awakening, the realization of one’s true God-intended identity, intellectual transformation, emotional healing, and holistic well-being.
Her faith journey began in her early twenties when she surrendered her life to God, inspired by the impactful messages of Christian television and radio. Soon after, she was invited to share her testimony at a women’s conference, marking the start of her rise within the Christian community as a speaker and teacher. Through apprenticeship training, she served as an associate pastor and then senior pastor, expanding her speaking engagements to both religious and secular media outlets.
As a sought-after speaker for churches, conferences, and mainstream platforms, Dr. Grace developed a demanding travel schedule. Over the years, she furthered her influence by writing and self-publishing books, producing, and hosting various television and podcast programs, all driven by her mission to inspire and empower her ever-growing audience.
However, the weight of her responsibilities began to take a toll. Dr. Grace juggled many roles—pastoring, counseling, speaking, producing television, while also running a business to continue to provide for her raising seven children alone after a divorce. This relentless pressure led to major burnout, episodes of depression, and feelings of despair and suicidal ideation. Frequent encounters with exploitative behavior within the faith community deepened her struggles, leaving her drained and disillusioned. Despite this, her unwavering devotion to God propelled her forward as she concealed her pain, not wanting to burden others or bring negativity to her faith.
As her struggles became increasingly unbearable, Dr. Grace sought help through counseling and therapy. This transformative healing journey allowed her to uncover deep-seated wounds from her childhood and adulthood, revealing the vital connection between psychology and theology—or, as she puts it, the intersection of mental health and ministry.
Now, as a passionate advocate for integrating psychology and theology, Dr. Grace encourages individuals and faith communities to actively dismantle the stigma surrounding emotional struggles. She emphasizes that prioritizing mental health is not a detour from faith but an essential aspect of it. By nurturing our mental well-being, we embark on a path toward wholeness, enabling us to live fully and authentically in both our public and private lives, in alignment with God’s design for our emotional wellness.
Dr. Grace brings over twenty-five years of experience within the Christian community, where she has served as a licensed and ordained pastor and elder. She holds an honorary Doctorate of Christian Humane Letters from the School of the Great Commission Bible College and Seminary, with another honorary Doctorate in Divinity pending from CICA International Bible College and Seminary. Dr. Grace has completed certified training in Psychological First Aid through Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, equipping her with the skills to address emotional crises effectively. Additionally, she is a Professional Christian Life Coach and First Responder Mental Health Coach certified through Light University. As a certified Community Specialist Chaplain with the United States Chaplain Corps, Dr. Grace is dedicated to offering compassionate care to individuals in crisis, including first responders.
