42. When "Helping" Hurts: Part 1 (Emily's Story)

from Healed-ish · host Jubilee Dawn

Part 1 of 2Emily didn’t grow up religious, but after a traumatic assault, she was searching for something to make her feel whole again. That search led her into Campus Crusade for Christ, years of overseas missions, and a deep commitment to faith and service. Over time, she began to notice troubling patterns, including witnessing a child with cerebral palsy accused of seeking out witchcraft and pressured to walk. In this episode, Emily shares how her experiences in missions and a charismatic church, including false prophecies and prayers to heal her own son, ultimately led her and her husband to step back and reevaluate everything they believed. Through deconstruction, grief, and rebuilding, they found a new way forward rooted in humanity, community, and compassion. -Patreon: ⁠https://www.patreon.com/Healedish⁠Follow for more:  Jubilee’s TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@jubileedawns⁠ Jubilee’s IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/jubileedawns⁠ Healed-ish TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@healedishpodcast⁠ Healed-ish IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/healedishpodcast⁠ Apply To Share Your Story: ⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/23f8SPBX1VntsqUU8⁠
