Genocide in Rwanda. Systemic sexual abuse in Brazil. Child abuse and domestic violence in the U.S. After forty years of counseling abuse survivors around the world, Dr. Diane Langberg, a world renowned trauma expert, remains certain that what trauma destroys, Christ can and does restore. This book will convince you, too, of the healing heart of God.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBut it's not a fast process, instead much patience is required from family, friends, and counselors as they wisely and respectfully help victims unpack their traumatic suffering through talking, tears, and time. And it's not a process that can be separated from the work of God in both a counselor and counselee. Dr. Langberg calls all of those who wish to help sufferers to model Jesus's sacrificial love and care in how they listen, love, and guide. The heart of God is revealed to sufferers as they grow to understand the cross of Christ and how their God came to this earth and experienced such severe suffering that he too is \"well-acquainted with grief.\" The cross of Christ is the lens that transforms and redeems traumatic suffering and its aftermath, not only for the sufferer, but it also transforms those who walk with the suffering. This book will be a great help to anyone who loves, listens to, and seeks to help someone impacted by trauma and abuse. There is no quick fix, but there is the hope for healing through the love of God in Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Diane Langberg","offers":[{"title":"Book","offer_id":49950871584997,"sku":"9781942572022","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"eBook","offer_id":49950871617765,"sku":"9781942572039","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/5617\/9173\/files\/Suffering-and-the-Heart-of-God-How-Trauma-Destroys-and-Christ-Restores-Biblical-Counseling_14522__89482.1753471452.1280.1280.jpg?v=1783337186"},{"product_id":"bringing-christ-to-abused-women-learning-to-see-and-respond","title":"Bringing Christ to Abused Women: Learning to See and Respond","description":"\u003csection data-role=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eViolence against women is a growing concern, both in America and around the world.
