Charlynne Boddie worked in the White House and Hollywood before moving to the UK. Sam Hailes finds out more about this ordained minister’s most unusual career
You only have to spend a few minutes with Charlynne Boddie before you realise her life is a living demonstration of Jesus’ words “with God all things are possible” (Matthew 19:26).
Charlynne’s remarkable career has taken her from humble beginnings in the mountainous Denver, Colorado to the White House, where she worked as a press secretary for Bill Clinton’s administration, and Hollywood, where she presented her own TV show. She’s prophesied over Oprah, ministered to the cast of Lord of the Rings and witnessed countless miracles.
