The Father Wound That Changed Everything—And the God Who Can Heal It
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you ever struggled to believe God is a good Father because of what you've experienced with your earthly father?
In this deeply personal episode of The Redeemed Podcast, Lauren Burns shares her own journey of healing after being kidnapped by her father at seven years old and explains how childhood trauma can shape our view of God.
As Lauren prepares for the release of her memoir STOLEN: True Story. Kidnapped. Rescued. Redeemed., she begins a special series focused on father wounds, childhood trauma, identity, forgiveness, and God's power to redeem broken lives.
Through Scripture, personal testimony, and practical encouragement, you'll discover:
• What father wounds really are
• How childhood trauma affects our relationship with God
• Why Genesis reveals where broken relationships began
• How Jesus restores what sin destroyed
• Why your past doesn't determine your future
• Practical steps toward healing
If you've experienced abandonment, divorce, abuse, rejection, or the absence of a father, this episode is for you.
No matter your story...
Your wounds do not have the final word.
Jesus does.
