On the Threshold of Hope offers hope and healing to men and women who have been traumatized by sexual abuse. Dr. Langberg's insights and the quotations from many survivors assure readers that they are not alone and that Christ, the Redeemer, can heal their deep wounds. Through stories, Scripture, questions, and encouragement, Dr. Langberg walks with survivors on the road to sexual healing through Christ's love and power.
A compassionate guide toward restoration, this book offers:
- A safe place for victims to understand what they experienced and find hope for the future
- A biblical framework for processing negative emotions like guilt, shame, fear, and anger
- Stories from other survivors of abuse, assault, and trauma to help you make sense of your own story
- Advice for people who are walking alongside survivors on their healing journey
Let Dr. Langberg's gentle wisdom help you in the battle against darkness as you move toward wholeness and hope.
