In Episode 2 of Old Paths New Steps, hosts Peter Voorhees, Josh Lott, and Malissa Bertella delve into understanding trauma through a biblical lens. While "trauma" has become a cultural buzzword, appearing in countless books and podcasts since Bessel van der Kolk's "The Body Keeps the Score" hit bestseller lists, the hosts explore its deeper meaning and physiological impact. Drawing from both modern research on adverse childhood experiences and ancient biblical wisdom, they examine how our bodies and souls respond to difficult experiences. The conversation weaves together insights about the brain's stress responses with scriptural examples of suffering and healing, from Job to Jesus himself. Whether you're seeking to understand your own experiences or support others, this episode offers a thoughtful framework for viewing trauma through both contemporary and timeless perspectives.
