Trauma Aware: A Christian’s Guide to Providing Help and Care

Hope and Help for Trauma Sufferers and Supportive Helpers

What is trauma? How can we recognize it, and how do we offer help that is biblically faithful and empathetic?

• understand the vitally interactive connections between brain, body, and soul
