Renowned trauma counselor Diane Langberg offers a clear, compassionate, and biblically grounded approach to helping people whose lives have been damaged by trauma and abuse. Drawing on more than forty years of counseling experience around the world, Langberg argues that what trauma destroys, Christ can and does restore.
Langberg emphasizes that restoration is not a quick or simple process. Healing requires patient, respectful presence from family, friends, pastors, and counselors as survivors process suffering through honest conversation, tears, and time. The book presents trauma care as a deeply spiritual task that reflects the sacrificial love of Jesus.
Framing traumatic suffering through the lens of the cross, Langberg shows how Christ's identification with human grief offers both hope and practical guidance for long-term restoration. This accessible resource is intended for pastors, counselors, ministry leaders, and anyone who wants to support people affected by trauma and abuse.
