33. How Do You Discover Beauty When You're Kidnapped By Your Father? With Lauren Burns

Welcome to Episode 33 of the Warrior Words podcast!   This is Part One of a 2-part series. In this episode, my guest, Lauren Burns, and I talk about her abduction by a family member. And if that wasn't scary enough for a child, she was taken out of the country where she was born and placed into an entirely new culture where things were very different. Lauren shares about the many people impacted by this one act, including her mother, many family members, family friends, and former U.S. military members who prayed, fasted, plotted, planned, and surrendered in order to bring Lauren home.   This is a story you don't want to miss.   Learn more about Lauren: Redeemed Podcast - On Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/redeemed-podcast22 On Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/redeemed-podcast/id1741136389 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/laurenBredeemed/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lburnspt/ Website: https://laurenburns.net/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@laurenburnsredeemed   Made  for TV Movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vdIZSvbeQ0 Lauren's Story on the Redeemd Podcast: Check out Episodes 2-6 and 14-17   Donate to the Star of the Sea Guild through our fiscal sponsor! https://raisedonors.com/xaviermissionfund/star-of-the-sea-guild   Armor Up.
