Before the Life Beyond Trauma Conference, Andrea sat down with Sandra Sellmer-Kersten to talk about healing, transformation, and what it means to invite Jesus into the places of deep pain.
In their conversation, Sandra shared her excitement for what God will do through the conference, “It’s amazing to see the light bulbs go on in people’s hearts. You watch the hope come in, and you know there’s an answer for them.”
She spoke about how Jesus meets us in our stories with both tenderness and transformation. “The comfort and compassion of Jesus always comes with His invitation to lasting change.” She explained that God “doesn’t take the memories away, but when that memory is processed, it becomes part of our testimony... part of our overcoming.”
Sandra reminded us that Jesus’ heart is to restore what has been lost. “He doesn’t just heal; He restores identity, value, purpose, and destiny.”
There is life after trauma. Life to the full.
