Trauma & the Brain: A Missionary’s Guide

Trauma can feel like an occupational hazard in ministry. Unresolved trauma can result in diminished decision-making, anxiety, sleep loss and avoidant behavior. In this seminar we will discuss the neurobiology of trauma and the pathways to healing that God has provided.
