Krista Fox is the founder of Applied Care for Trauma (ACT), a ministry focused on equipping churches to effectively help those who have experienced deep hurt.

In this episode, hosts Nick Cady and Brian Brodersen speak with Krista, as she shares powerful stories from her years serving in Brazil—working among the vulnerable, including individuals in prostitution and victims of human trafficking—and how those experiences led her to found a ministry to equip churches to effectively minister to the hurting.

We discuss:

What trauma is
Common mistakes made in handling hurting people
How pastors and lay leaders can respond biblically and compassionately

What trauma-informed ministry looks like in practice

Krista also explains why this work is not just for counselors—but for every church that wants to reflect the heart of Christ.
