Episode 4 Season 2: God Will Heal Your Trauma and Emotional Abuse

Trauma Survivors Unite: Christian Emotional Recovery

Episode Description:
God Will Heal Your Trauma and Emotional Abuse is a Youtube video I did a few years ago with the same name. I encouraged people that they can heal, God will heal them, and God's radical love is the source of all healing, including any trauma or difficult emotional issues you may be facing. This episode discusses attitudes that can re-traumatize you, how to avoid these, and how being deeply rooted Christ's radical love and grace keeps you safe and heals you, along with doing the right kind of healing work. This episode offers a word of encouragement and a reminder of why we do the healing work, that God's love it radical and his grace is scandalous, and that God will heal your trauma and emotional abuse.
