https://www.regenerationrecovery.org/struggles/sexual-abuse // Having a conversation around safety and abuse has become more and more common in our world today. How should a Christian think about abuse and safety? Emma Dotter consults a discussion written by John Elmore to discuss this conversation. This conversation is not just one that is heavy, but in Christ we can have hope. “God hates that this has happened to you, and although you may not understand why this has happened, God will punish the wrong that was done to you. God can heal your shame and restore your true identity.” Emma reminds us that, “You matter to God. Entrust justice from your abuse to Christ.”
