In this powerful episode of the ExEm Podcast, Matthew sits down with author Samantha Jones to talk about her deeply moving book, God and Trauma: The Lessons I’m Learning. Samantha is a wife, mom, and survivor of significant past trauma — and she’s courageously opening the pages of her healing journey for others to find hope.

Together, we explore how God meets us in the darkest valleys, the slow and sacred work of restoration, and the practical lessons Samantha is learning as she continues to walk with Jesus through layers of healing. She shares honestly about her therapeutic journey, EMDR, and the moments when God’s presence has broken through her pain in transformative ways. This episode is an invitation to anyone who has experienced hurt and is longing for hope. Samantha’s story reminds us that healing is possible, God is near, and our scars can become testimonies of His grace.
