    What Rape Did to My Life

    June 10, 2016 /

    Rape left a jagged wound on my life, but through the media bombardment since the horrifyingly lenient sentence for Brock Turner, God has been reminding me how He has used my darkest story to minister to brutally wounded girls. Even though I’m reliving bits and pieces of my own story, I can’t look away.
