S1 E4: Face Off with Your Feelings: Healing from An Abusive Past with Lauren Nelson

I want to warn you that if sexual, physical, or mental abuse is part of your story, you may want to skip this episode as parts of my guest’s story may be triggering for you. As we continue this series of facing off with your feelings, I invited author Lauren Nelson on the show to share her story of how developing a personal, intimate relationship freed her from the fear that gripped her after being sexually abused by a family member. If you’ve experienced something similar, remember that Jesus isn’t afraid to be with us even in the darkest places. He sees you and wants to set you free from fear because on the other side of fear is every good thing He wants for you. Are you ready to stop allowing your feelings to get the final say?
