Hurt People Hurt People

We all have been hurt by other hurting people, and in turn those wounds condition us to treat ourselves and others in hurtful ways. It’s called Wilson’s Law of Relationships: “Hurt people hurt people.”

Whether you survived childhood neglect or abuse, or experienced the normal emotional hurts of our fallen world, this book helps you

     • See God’s biblical design for healthy relationships

     • Be realistic about the good and bad of your family of origin

     • Acknowledge your difficult emotions

     • Reclaim your ability to make new, life-giving choices

     • Learn to be the friend, spouse, leader, follower, and parent you want to be

Dr. Sandra Wilson addresses head-on the shame we often feel for our injuries—whether inflicted by others or ourselves. Rejecting that script, she reminds you of God’s loving care and presence in your journey toward wholeness. With empathy, gentleness, and biblical insight, Wilson is the perfect guide to emotional healing for you or others in your life who have experienced childhood abuse, family dysfunction, or ongoing struggles in their marriage or other adult relationships.
