PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Children can experience trauma from a variety of situations, including neglect, physical, sexual, or psychological abuse, the death of a loved one, bullying, racism, and more. Trauma occurs when children are exposed to an experience perceived as threatening or harmful and respond with an intense fear that affects them physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Justin and Lindsey Holcomb help parents and caregivers recognize the signs of trauma and guide them in stepping into children’s lives and demonstrating Jesus’s care and protection for them. The compassionate and helpful response of parents or caregivers can help children who have experienced trauma to access spiritual, emotional, and physical healing.
