Does the Bible talk about sexual abuse and other deep hurts? Find real answers in this 14-week study; a life-changing workbook for women who have been sexually abused (and those who want to help them). Leave the pain behind and travel toward Joy and Freedom. An incest survivor and her counselor share real stories, practical tips, simple tools and “aha!” questions. Each chapter has discussion starters and help for mentors, small group leaders or one-on-one discipleship partners.
Pretty Bunny Has A Hurt Heart
Pretty Bunny was hurt by Mr. Fox's bad touch. She needs help understanding and healing, but she's afraid to talk about how sad and mad she feels. Her cousin Miss Abigail and Granny Bunny gently listen, pray for her, give direction and walk with her until she feels strong.
This story resource for children is written and illustrated with children 8+ in mind. It gently reveals thoughts and feelings a child might have after being molested, abused or manipulated. Topics like anger, self-hatred, shame, healing, and forgiveness address common reactions to abuse. Pretty Bunny presents a good, caring Creator God who loves His children.
(Hope Ahead delivers advice and biblical counseling about harm, healing, forgiveness and God's love. It can help on the road to healing from past hurts. It is not designed to present psychology basics or replace intensive therapy.)
