In Part 2 of this series on sexual abuse, we explore how to recognize red flags, reduce risks, and respond when a child discloses abuse. Valerie shares her personal experience of childhood sexual abuse and its lasting impact, highlighting the importance of believing and protecting victims—even when the abuser is a family member. We also discuss the psychological effects of abuse, the role of mandatory reporters, and what the Bible says about this issue.  Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions about sexual abuse and may be sensitive for some listeners. Please take care while listening. Reflection Questions: For victims of child sexual abuse: Are you able to say "I have been sexually abused as a child"? Have you processed this trauma in a careful, supported way? For parents and family members: Have you supported your family members who have come forward about abuse? If your child has been a victim, have you also processed the trauma?   Follow us on all Social Media Platforms: @healingintruthpodcast #HealingInTruth #HealingInTruthPodcast
