Dr. Weathers is a native of Lexington, Kentucky where she confessed hope in Christ at an early age and was active in programs for children and youth.

In 2002 after four years of study, Dr. Weathers was awarded a Diploma of Biblical Studies from the International Bible Institute-City of Hope. Dr. Weathers is blessed to have made three pilgrimages to the Holy Land.
Having come from humble beginnings, Dr. Weathers was blessed by God with an extensive education.
