You no longer have to fear the darkness. The light of the world is here!

Spiritual pain can follow physical pain, emotional pain, relational pain, grief and loss. This can be devastating, as the spiritual pain inflicted by the enemy drives a wedge between you and God, hindering the healing process. 

In other words, spiritual pain compounds our wounds. That dark stubborn cloud of depression can settle heavy on our hearts. 

But through awareness and with God’s help, you can heal.

Let’s turn on the lights …shall we?!? 

Healing begins when we recognize that spiritual pain is often the unseen wound beneath the surface and pretending or pushing the pain down does not work. No matter what you’re going through, know that you’re not alone. Together with God, we can ALWAYS find the light in the darkest of moments.

“The light shines in the darkness,

     and the darkness can never extinguish it.” John 1:5

I had the honor of interviewing Dr. Michelle Bengtson on spiritual pain for her amazing podcast, Hope Filled Perspective, and today we are sharing this message with you. With almost three decades of clinical expertise as a neuropsychologist, best-selling author Dr. Michelle Bengtson is here to unpack the healing process for Spiritual Pain. 

Ready for hope and healing? Listen to today’s message.

Blessings,

Aliene

What is Emotional Abuse? – with Leslie Vernick

by

What does the Bible say about emotional abuse?

Listen to the podcast or watch on YouTube.

Hello , 

Emotional abuse is often diminished or dismissed for many reasons – even in the church. When this happens, the lack of validation can feel confusing and powerless for the victim, but this is not God’s way. 

At Treasured Ministries, we believe God calls the church to be a resource, not a roadblock, for victims of emotional abuse. Our vision is to see a world where every woman is free to live the life that God intended for her.

After all, every woman is precious and holds immeasurable value in the eyes of the Lord.

Today, we welcome Leslie Vernick, author of “The Emotionally Destructive Marriage” and “The Emotionally Destructive Relationship,” to discuss emotional abuse. Listen to today’s message and discover the answers to these questions. 

What is emotional abuse?

How does emotional abuse impact our lives physically, spiritually, and mentally?

How can abuse lead to codependency?

What are the first steps to heal? 

God does not condone any form of abuse. 

Listen to today’s teaching lesson, pass it on to others to bring awareness to emotional abuse and let’s see freedom for every woman. 

With Love,

Aliene
