Represent: The story our lives tell about Christ
Our response to Trauma is to go back to old patters (the boat)
Trauma: Anything that negative changes our view of the world, others, or God. Anything that shakes us deeply brings us into the realm of trauma.
Shame is a form of self-hate
Shame writes the resume
Jesus pursues us in our pain
Jesus turns over every stone where shame is lurking
Jesus wants to heal us from shame so that we can truly Represent Him to a fallen and broken world
