Episode 131: Abuse, Justice, and Redemption - Dianna Bautista, Part 2
Description
In part one, we heard about Dianna’s ministry reaching women in the brothels of Pattaya and beyond. In this second part, we step into her own story - growing up in California, walking away from God while enjoying success in Hollywood, and the pain of abuse that marked her childhood and married life.
But her testimony doesn’t end in brokenness. Dianna shares how truth came to light, justice was done, and how God redeemed deep wounds. This conversation is raw and honest - but full of hope in a God who heals and restores.
