It's never too late to begin the healing process from childhood sexual abuse. It's never too early to fall in love with the person God created you to be. Long ago someone made a choice to take away your innocence, but today that someone can't touch your freedom to heal.

The Lies Survivors Believe

The lie she believed disguised itself as truth in her life for over a half of a century. It began as a wordless whisper that snaked its way through her mind, leaving a trail of venom, as it slithered quietly to its resting place—coiled securely around her heart. It lay there undetected, invisible to most, yet controlling selective thoughts and affecting life-altering choices.


Sexual abuse gives birth to lies. And until the lies are identified and put to death, survivors suffer from their poison. As I have listened to the hearts of my survivor friends, I have discovered that the lies they believed were the same, yet how those lies shaped their lives were unique to each woman.

Over the next several weeks, we are going to look at those lies and hear from the experts—the survivors—on how those lies molded their lives. And we’ll hear the good news of how they’ve replaced those lies with truth. Truth that has set their minds and hearts free.
