What do you do when someone wounds you deeply? The reality is that emotional hurt is part of the human experience, but far too many people remain trapped in cycles of pain, resentment, and withdrawal long after the initial injury. In this candid and powerful conversation, Ken and Tabatha expose what they call a "hurt epidemic" sweeping through communities and churches worldwide.

Drawing from personal experience with trauma, rejection, and betrayal, they offer a refreshingly practical approach to emotional healing. You'll discover the transformative principle of "cast, don't carry" - a visualization exercise where you literally hand your hurts over to a higher power. This isn't theoretical spirituality but a tangible practice that has brought freedom to countless lives.

The biblical story of Joseph becomes a powerful case study in overcoming significant betrayal without becoming bitter. His declaration to his brothers - "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good" - provides a template for anyone who's been wounded by others yet refuses to let those wounds define their destiny.

What sets this conversation apart is its balanced approach. Ken and Tabatha acknowledge the reality of legitimate hurts while challenging the tendency toward perpetual victimhood. They distinguish between "hurts that are hurtful" and "perceived hurts," offering wisdom for addressing both. Their perspective shift from "victim to victor" isn't about denying pain but refusing to let it have the final word in your story.

Whether you're carrying church hurt, relational betrayal, or family wounds, this episode provides the practical tools and spiritual insights needed to break free and reclaim your purpose. Share this episode with someone who needs to hear that their greatest pain might become their greatest purpose.
