Description

The power of abuse lies in secrecy. The power of healing begins with telling.

In this episode, Tim Hein shares his story of surviving childhood sexual abuse and the journey of healing. From the courage it takes to break the silence, to the importance of being believed, to the steps of recovery that lead to restoration, Tim offers raw honesty and hard-earned wisdom. He reflects on how trauma shaped his life, marriage, and faith—and how choosing to tell your story is ultimately an act of self-love and grace.

This hopeful conversation offers encouragement for survivors and practical insight for those who walk alongside them.
