This message of overcoming spiritual abuse is so necessary right now. And in light of recent events, I thought it absolutely necessary to bring Francesca McDowall back on to the show to talk about how we recover from spiritual abuse, especially in light of recent events. 

I stress, whilst we mention the exposure of the late Ravi Zacharias, this is intended only to help others avoid these situations and heal. We are all about soul healing and I encourage everyone to pray for Ravi Zacharias's family and the ministry.

In this episode you'll learn:

  • How to be spiritually aware and test the spirits according to Psalm 146:3-5
  • Fran's experience of spiritual abuse and how God lead her to write the book
  • How to heal and help others heal after spiritual abuse
  • What being an enabler of spiritual abuse looks like, even when you think you're not a participant
  • How to ensure we don't put our guard up so much we lock out the good. We talk about what it looks like to be interdependent and not either independent, dependent or codependent.  
  • What forgiveness looks like and why it's so necessary - even if you never get an apology
