It is a tragic reality that so many of us carry wounds from our childhood into our adult lives. When the home we grew up in didn’t provide the safety or affirmation we needed, we often grow up believing a lie: that we are not valuable, that we are not worth cherishing. And my friend, when you don’t believe you are worth much, you tend to make choices that reflect that low value—especially in your relationships.
In this compassionate discussion, Cheryl La Mastra and I look at how our “family of origin” shapes our self-worth and how childhood trauma can echo into adulthood. But the story doesn’t have to end there. We talk about the vital process of relearning your value—not based on your past, but based on who you are in Christ. You need to know, deep in your soul, that you are precious to God and that you are absolutely “worth the wait” for God’s best.
