Child Abuse and Scripture: Randy Boyd's Journey

Jesus, speaking again what he's telling you: don't sin, do not cause one of your little ones.
Imagine growing up in a home where the Bible is used as a weapon rather than a source of comfort. That's the reality Randy L. Boyd faced, and in this eye-opening episode of 'Healing Courageously', he takes us through his painful past in an abusive Christian household. Randy shares his journey of rediscovering faith after years of darkness, focusing on what the Bible really says about child abuse.
He highlights two powerful scriptures: one from Matthew, Luke, and Mark where Jesus sternly warns against harming children, and another from Ephesians urging fathers to nurture their children without provoking anger. Through personal anecdotes and biblical insights, Randy offers a unique perspective on how these scriptures are often misinterpreted and misused. He also provides practical advice for parents on how to uplift their children rather than discourage them.
This episode is not just a deep dive into scripture but also a guide for anyone seeking healing from the scars of child abuse. Randy wraps up by mentioning his book, 'Healing the Wounded Child Within', and his counseling services, offering further support for those on their journey to recovery.
