This week, we bring you Lauren Burns and her incredible story.

Lauren was kidnapped at the age of seven by her biological father and taken to Jordan. In 1992, NBC produced a made-for-television movie about her kidnapping and rescue. Lauren's journey of forgiveness and healing is an empowering story. She is the host of the Redeemed Podcast on Spotify, YouTube and Apple Podcasts. Her goal is to share her story to encourage others to forgive and live a redeemed life. Lauren is a full time Physical Therapist, wife and mother of two boys.
