Gwena dedicates this episode to her deceased sister, Tammy, with love, discusses how she was a blessing, they're reconciliation, and what Tammy and her Grandmother taught her.

Gwena shares how God revealed to her that she was not the one who alienated her family; her family alienated her. She suggests steps and questions for self-reflection to further healing from the effects of being scapegoated and entering into the comfortable yet unhealthy pattern of abuse.

Gwena discusses both the repercussions (consequences) and the exponential blessings of her walking in obedience and ultimately leaving her abusive ex-husband.

Gwena shares not her opinion but Biblical advice and Scriptures as they relate to domestic violence and submission. Please listen as what Jesus actually has to say about Biblical submission might shock you. It's not always what's taught in churches.

Gwena reads a beautiful and anointed letter to an abuser scripted by Patrick Weaver Ministries on Facebook.

Gwena shares just some of the emotions domestic violence victims and survivors can and do experience.

In Part 2, Gwena shares more of her growing up years experience in both her mother's and her father's homes. She also gives insights into why she and others might enter into abusive relationships based on the thoughts that were produced during our childhood years.

In this revealing episode, Gwena shares some of the details of the truth of what happened as she was growing up. She divulges the dynamics of her parents' divorce; her parents' remarriages and the abuse of her by her stepparents; and the socioeconomic situation of each side of her divorced family as well as its effects on her. Part two is forthcoming!

In this very brief episode, Gwena confesses how she realizes she is not as healed as she had formally thought and transparently shares a recent phone call from an extended family member.

Gwena discusses how everyone has problems in life, and even with abuse, Jesus wants to be our best friend and does not want us to be mistreated.
