Ep. 30 Assault w/ Liz Szporn
Welcome to EVOLVE Thru God! I would love it if you would spread the word - like, follow, share, and introduce EVOLVE thru God to people you know who are seeking in their own journey!
In this powerful episode of Evolve Thru God, Angela sits down with Liz Szporn—a businesswoman, mother, and survivor—who shares the deeply personal story of how her early faith was shattered by sexual abuse at a Christian camp and how, decades later, she found her way back to God.
Liz opens up about the betrayal she experienced as a teenager at the hands of a camp director, the institutional cover-up that followed, and the long legal battle her family fought to expose the truth. But this is not a story of victimhood—it’s one of radical healing, spiritual reclamation, and courageous advocacy.
Through tears, laughter, and raw honesty, Liz recounts the winding road that led her to reconnect with God—not in church pews, but in nature, music, and daily prayer with a trusted circle of women. Her story is a profound reminder that even in our darkest seasons, redemption is possible—and that God never stops reaching for us.
If you or someone you know is a survivor, this episode will serve as both a balm and a beacon.
🌱 Lessons We Learn from Liz
Liz’s assault didn’t just harm her body—it severed her connection to God. Rebuilding that relationship required time, honesty, and an entirely new spiritual framework outside traditional religion.
Despite being silenced and shamed by those in positions of power, Liz’s story reminds us that God remains faithful. Her divine reconnection came through unexpected channels: poetry, music, and sacred community.
Breaking the silence wasn’t just personal healing—it was a public act of justice. Liz’s willingness to speak out carved a path for other survivors to reclaim their voice and power.
Liz’s spiritual journey was nonlinear. Her faith was not restored in a single moment, but through many quiet ones—often accompanied by tears, laughter, and relentless honesty with herself and God.
The daily group prayer Liz participates in became a lifeline. True healing often happens not in isolation, but in safe, spiritually grounded community.
Liz’s life testifies that redemption doesn’t erase the pain—it transforms it into purpose. Her story encourages us to find the divine even in life’s messiest places.
