Rugged individualism can be helpful at times, but when it comes to nursing the hurts of our lives, it’s a hindrance. Pastor and author Otis Ledbetter discusses how we can heal trauma by looking into the reasons why people self-isolate and engage in damaging behavior in the wake of difficult experiences and events. Why are people afraid to change their lives? Why do some people struggle so badly with moving past their trauma? Otis encourages people to look at life through the lens of Biblical truth and to embrace an attitude of positivity, which he promises will bring comfort back into your life. God knows we were not created to be alone, so it’s imperative we seek support and help from others.
