Dealing with Trauma
A Study Series for Healing and Hope in Christ β¨ποΈπ
Welcome to the Journey π€οΈ
Life wounds us in many ways. Traumas β whether from abuse, loss, violence, betrayal, disasters, or other painful events β leave deep scars in our hearts and minds. They can shape how we see ourselves, others, and even God. If left unhealed, trauma can rob us of peace, trust, and the ability to experience life fully.
This series is designed to help you face the pain of trauma with biblical truth, personal reflection, and practical steps toward healing. You are not alone in your journey. The Lord who sees your suffering also invites you to experience His healing love.
