Bleeding Daylight

The pandemic has dramatically changed so much in both our public and our private worlds. For many, it has amplified feelings of loneliness, of not feeling enough,  disconnectedness and shame. Dr. Bill Senyard is an experienced pastor, discipler, church revitalization specialist, lecturer and conference speaker. He is the author of twelve books and he has researched both the recent science and theology related to shame, loneliness and unforgiveness in order to help people find healing and to move forward.
