A Texas millionaire entrepreneur who was a former member of the George W. Bush administration recently shared her testimony about her challenging faith journey.
Rebecca and David Contreras, who've been married for 33 years, were invited as guest speakers at Capital Life Church of Arlington, Virginia, on May 7, where they shared their testimonies with the congregation.
During her youth, Rebecca confronted the challenges of being a teenage mother, quitting high school, struggling with drug addiction and enduring poverty.
Rebecca, the president and chief executive officer of the prominent consulting firm AdvantGarde, attributes her success to the grace of God and the transformative influence of Jesus in what she refers to as her previously "broken life." Without these factors, Rebecca believes she wouldn't have achieved her current position.
