For professional practitioners and general readers, Glasson, a Methodist minister in the UK who directs a project supporting survivors of sexual abuse within faith communities, considers what it means to be a survivor of trauma and abuse, within the context of Christianity. Drawing from passages and stories in the Bible, she discusses her experiences talking with survivors around the world, what helps stories surface and enables them to reclaim their lives, the creation of a safe space, the sense of being lost, transcending boundaries, power, forgiveness, blame, relationships and identity, and the role of the church.
