Steve Holladay: From Shame to Sharing

Rough Drafts: How God Writes His Love in Our Stories

Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of sexual trauma and behavior. You should listen before listening with your kids. It's amazing how deeply we hide our trauma and our shame. Steve this week shares a story of learning to work through the puzzle pieces of his past, confronting the core ideas that stick with us and sabotage our relationships. In this episode, we talk about how fantasy sometimes is the mind's attempt to correct a trauma, how behavior is a voice, and how dissociation can be a warning sign. Steve's great moment is when he gets to the point where he realises, "I am not as awful as I always thought I was." During the show, we mentioned the Sexual Addiction Screening Test, available here: https://www.bethesdaworkshops.org/for-sex-addicts/ You can find Steve's ministry and podcast at https://www.ultimateescape.org/parents/page/podcast
