Sex is such an intimate topic historically wrapped in shame and
when someone shares they were sexually abused, we may not know how
to respond. With recent #MeToo and #ChurchToo movements, we are
learning just how many men, women, boys, and girls have suffered
sexual abuse at the hands of a trusted person, often family members
or leaders in the church. Sexual abuse is rampant in modern society
and now--sometimes many years later--sexual abuse survivors are
sharing their stories. Anne Marie Miller is a survivor of childhood
clergy sexual abuse and has shared her journey toward healing with
audiences all over the world. After speaking with thousands of
survivors and their loved ones, she saw the need for a fundamental
and practical guide for helping supporters of sexual abuse
survivors understand the basics of abuse, trauma, healing, and
hope. Drawing from her own experience as a survivor and
evidence-based research, Anne addresses these questions and more in
Healing Together: What is sexual abuse? How can I help survivors?
Who are predators and how do they groom victims? How does trauma
affect survivors? What happens when someone doesn't remember the
details of their abuse? How does abuse wound the physical,
emotional, and spiritual health of people who have been abused?
When and how should authorities be contacted? How do you talk to
your children about sexual abuse? What are the warning signs of
abuse? Is healing possible? Whether you are a spouse, a family
member, a friend, or a church leader looking for easy-to-navigate
resources to understand and support sexual abuse survivors, you'll
find answers and hope in these pages.
