Synopsis

First published in 1989, Dan Allender's The Wounded Heart has helped hundreds of thousands of people come to terms with sexual abuse in their past. Now, more than twenty-five years later, Allender has written a brand-new book on the subject that takes into account recent discoveries about the lasting physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual ramifications of sexual abuse.With great compassion Allender offers hope for victims of rape, date rape, incest, molestation, sexting, sexual bullying, unwanted advances, pornography, and more, exposing the raw wounds that are left behind and clearing the path toward wholeness and healing. Never minimizing victims' pain or offering pat spiritual answers that don't truly address the problem, he instead calls evil evil and lights the way to renewed joy.Counselors, pastors, and friends of those who have suffered sexual harm will find in this book the deep spiritual guidance they need to effectively minister to the sexually broken around them. Victims themselves will find here a sympathetic friend to walk alongside them on the road to healing.

As I try to write this today working on restore and other things I am experiencing writers block. Suffice it to say I was unprepared to start this matieral in February, living in a numbed state with much I needed, and still need, to learn. I would say this is one of the best works I have read in my......more

Goodreads review by Abbie on November 03, 2023

This book came recommended by my therapist at a pivotal time in my own journey of healing, to say it was part of some miraculous freedom and life change would be an understatement. This book, and Allender’s mix of clinical research and biblical truth, created a safe and honest space for me to look a......more
