Manage episode 291452842 series 2674386
Many kids who grow up in faith simply go through the motions, so when they reach adolescence the ways of the world can create their identity versus them finding their identity in Christ. Megan fell into this trap and sought validation through her popularity and the attention she got from boys. As a young woman, she was seduced by a man who abused her and they had three children together. Like many victims of domestic violence, Megan kept hoping things would change - that he would get a job, that he would care for their kids while she worked, that the money would stop disappearing, that he would treat her with respect. Although Megan herself could not find the courage to leave on her own, she credits the power of the Holy Spirit acting through her 5 year old son to tell the truth about what was happening while Megan was away at work. From the precision and clarity from her son about neglect and sexual abuse that her husband was inflicting on their children, to child protective services, to the support from her family, to the court system & sentencing, God’s hand was in it all. Hear how Megan’s relationship with God was restored and how she and her children are being healed from a parent's and spouse’s worst nightmare.
