In this episode of In The Waves, I talk with Rev. Becca Stevens about the healing power of community and what a trauma-informed theology looks like. We explore the image of God as sexual trauma survivor, and how God bears witness to our trauma, believes our stories, and says “Me too.”
TW: In our conversation, we cover topics including sexual assault and rape, so please care for yourself well.
