Understanding Abuse. Beginning Healing.
Healing often begins with understanding.
For many years, Abuse Journal documented my personal journey through childhood abuse, domestic violence, faith, and healing. Today, it has grown into a faith-based resource designed to help adult survivors better understand abuse, recognize unhealthy patterns, and discover hope through God’s grace.
Whether you are beginning your healing journey or simply searching for answers, Abuse Journal offers biblical wisdom, personal stories, and practical encouragement to help you take the next step forward.
What You’ll Find
Abuse Journal explores topics such as:
- Understanding childhood abuse and domestic violence
- The lasting effects of trauma
- Breaking the cycle of generational trauma
- Healing through faith and God’s grace
- Reflective writing and personal growth
- Hope for the healing journey
Every article is written from the perspective of someone who has walked this road and discovered that healing is possible.
How Abuse Journal and My Books Work Together
My memoir, The Secret Darkness: Overcoming Abuse and Finding Freedom, tells my complete story of surviving abuse and finding hope through faith.
Abuse Journal builds upon those experiences by sharing the lessons, insights, and biblical encouragement that grew out of that journey. Rather than simply recounting what happened, these articles help readers better understand abuse and begin applying those lessons to their own lives.
Together, they offer both a personal story of survival and a practical resource for healing.
Continue the Journey
If you are looking for understanding, encouragement, and hope after abuse, I invite you to explore Abuse Journal.
When you are ready to reflect more deeply, begin writing your own story, and continue growing through faith, I also invite you to visit The Remnants Journal.
No matter where you are today, you are not alone.
Healing is possible.
Hope is real.
And by God’s grace, even the deepest wounds can become part of a story of restoration.
