Abuse, Healing, and the Church

 

Justin Holcomb is an Episcopal priest, Professor at Reformed Theological Seminary, co-host of The White Horse Inn radio program and a counselor to victims of abuse. His talk will describe how the heartbreaking statistics on various types of abuse do not begin to reveal the darkness and grief experienced by the survivors. However, the work of Jesus Christ deals directly with the effects of abuse. Holcomb will explore how the church can respond and care for survivors in ways that are compassionate, practical, and informed. His many books include Rid of My Disgrace: Hope and Healing for Victims of Sexual Assault; Is it My Fault? Hope and Healing for Those Suffering Domestic Violence; and God Made All of Me: A Book to Help Children Protect Their Bodies.
