When Stacey Sutherland entered the mission field twenty years ago, she knew she wanted to help people who were experiencing crisis and trauma. But she didn't know how trauma and crisis would affect her marriage, her five children, or herself. She couldn't have foreseen how much of her trauma knowledge (or trauma wisdom) would be shaped by her lived experience, by her endless pursuit to heal her family, and by her willingness to wrestle with God over questions that even the strongest faith can't answer.
Today, Stacey is a certified Crisis Intervention Specialist and Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate, as well as the Executive Director of Crisis Care International. She's served in more than 30 countries, supporting communities impacted by crisis and disaster, and equipping helpers with trauma-informed tools for healing and resilience.
This vulnerable conversation looks at trauma as a personal experience rather than an externalized experience that only happens to others. As Stacey puts it, "Trauma is a great equalizer." Join us as we talk about faith, deconstruction, reconstruction, and the peace that is found when we accept God's presence...in spite of our circumstances.
