Love Always Protects: Rachel's Story

Love Always Protects: Rachel's Story

On today's episode, I have the privilege of sharing the story of one of our Survivor Sanctuary listeners. Rachel began to be sexually abused within the walls of her church as a very vulnerable young woman, and her repeated cries for help fell on deaf, calloused ears. Though she asked for help, Rachel continued to endure abuse at the hands of a monster while the people she disclosed the assault to left her to deal with her abuser alone, adding to her shame and fear rather than intervening.  Rachel's story is a reminder that sometimes our deepest wounds are inflicted by those who never physically touch us. And it begs the question, how far should we go to protect the most vulnerable among us?
