Show Notes

Trauma is a bigger player in our lives than you might think.

It's the unacknowledged guest at every gathering of humans. 

And if we could learn to understand it better, we'd create a kinder, more compassionate world.   

In today's episode we discuss trauma:     

1. What is trauma?     

2. What are Big T and little T traumas?     

3. How does trauma impact your relationship to yourself, others and God?     

4. The shaming messages that often sneak in as a result of trauma     

5. What does the Bible say about trauma and healing?     

6. How do you begin to heal?  


Questions to consider: 

What if what happened wasn’t your fault? 

What if you didn’t deserve that treatment? 

What if there’s not something wrong with you? 

What if you were created a beautiful soul made in God's image? 

Is there any sliver of you that could believe that? 

What if the heart of God is to heal?
