Drawing on decades of global experience, renowned trauma counselor Dr. Diane Langberg shows how the cross of Christ offers true healing and hope for those impacted by trauma and abuse.
Dr. Langberg has spent forty years listening to the stories of trauma survivors across continents—from slave dungeons in Ghana to genocide in Rwanda, from systemic abuse in Brazil to domestic violence in the U.S. Through her compassionate and deeply informed perspective, she offers a profound conviction: what trauma destroys, Christ can and does restore. Her book invites readers into the redemptive power of Christ’s suffering and love, pointing to a God who is intimately familiar with grief.
Healing from trauma is neither quick nor easy. It demands deep patience, humility, and spiritual dependence from those who walk with survivors. Dr. Langberg urges counselors, family members, and friends to embody the sacrificial love of Jesus—listening with care, offering presence rather than solutions, and pointing to the hope found in Christ’s own wounds. As readers grow to understand the suffering of Jesus, they will be equipped to minister to others with wisdom, compassion, and enduring hope.
- Offers insight from a globally respected trauma expert with decades of counseling experience.
- Grounds trauma care in the theological depth of Christ’s suffering and redemptive love.
- Equips helpers to walk patiently and faithfully with survivors through a Christ-centered lens.
