In this episode, I sit down with Anne Edward, who shares her powerful journey from childhood trauma and same-sex attraction to finding hope, healing, and her true identity in Jesus Christ. Anne opens up about her struggles, the process of forgiveness, and how embracing her God-given identity led to transformation. 

We discuss why true change goes deeper than behavior—it's about understanding who we are in Christ. Anne now leads Restored Hope Network, helping others find freedom from sexual brokenness. Our conversation is honest, compassionate, and full of encouragement for anyone wrestling with identity or seeking wholeness in faith.
