Overview
Today on the podcast, I’m joined by Deanna Lynn and Kristina Osborn. Together they authored and ghost-wrote Integrated: Living Beyond the Sex Trade. In a previous episode of Thrive, Deanna shares her story of how she overcame her traumatic upbringing that eventually led to her escaping a 10-year career in the sex industry. Upon exiting the industry, she found Refuge for Women, a place she can heal specifically from the trauma of exploitation. After graduating from their program in 2012, she earned a master's degree from Asbury Seminary and has authored two books. The second, "Integrated," I already mentioned and the first is Purchased: Leaving the Sex Trade. Each book details a piece of Deanna’s story.
Kristina is also an alum of Asbury Seminary, as well as Asbury University. She now serves as an associate pastor of Embrace Church in Lexington, Ky. In addition to fulfilling her pastoral calling in the diverse and loving community of Embrace, she also lives out her calling to be a storyteller for the kingdom through her own original music. She processes and proclaims her faith in a singer-songwriter style, which is vocal and acoustic driven, layered with scripture references and personal experiences. Her most recent release, Once More Arise, includes topics such as Eucharist, rest, waiting and lament. Kristina also partners with others as she did with Deanna to share their stories through ghostwriting and she shares the story of God as a preacher and speaker in worshipping communities at retreats and conferences.
In today’s conversation, we talk about Deanna’s new book "Integrated: Living Beyond the Sex Trade," Kristina’s new EP, "Once More Arise," how Kristina’s and Deanna’s lives intertwined so that this book became their next right thing and what it means to engage in practices that help us live integrated lives so we can be truly free.
Let’s listen!
