For 3 years as a teen I was abused & manipulated by the man who was my youth pastor. This changed me into a stranger in my own body & I was a hallow shell of myself. During the abuse I felt I wasn't who I was supposed to be, & I couldn't do anything to get rid of that feeling. I cried out to God and asked Him to get me to where I needed to be. God heard my cries, intervened, delivered me, & He continues to heal my deep wounds. I believe my abuse happened so God could use me to help others who have been abused. I am passionate about raising awareness about sexual abuse & want everyone to trust their God Given Gut instinct & learn about the tactics manipulative pastors use.
Since being freed from my abuser, I have rediscovered my humor, have strong relationships with my friends & family, can pursue what God calls me to, & I enjoy life again. I want anyone who has been abused by clergy to know their predator pastor does not have to ruin their relationship with God & He can heal them.
