Holding God's Hand Through Childhood Trauma and Parent Estrangement::  Ashley Byrom's Story

Holding God's Hand Through Childhood Trauma and Parent Estrangement:: Ashley Byrom's Story

Ashley Byrom, from our Homewood, Alabama community, shares her story of walking through childhood trauma and tragedy, as well as how God has met her and shaped her over the years as a result. From learning to trust God with her own children to letting go of a destructive relationship with her mother, Ashley helps us to understand we should never judge a book by its cover as we are all a work in progress…and we should always lead with compassion as we never know the path someone has walked.

IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:

- There are moments when painful memories from childhood trauma can be stored in your spirit and emerge later in life.

- If you keep things in the dark, they will often stay dark. Bring your darkness to the light by sharing your struggles with a trusted, godly friend.

- In the reconciliation of a relationship, it takes both parties to participate for healing to occur.
