Have you ever trusted someone or something so deeply…only to find out later that it wasn’t what you thought it was? In today’s episode Jill is joined by RayLynn Van Oort whose unbelievable story of overcoming the years she spent in a cult will be one you won’t soon forget. Jill and Raylynn talk about Raylynn’s new book and how it details the years of experiencing emotional and physical trauma, how her time in jail actually set her free and how Jesus brought her out of it, setting her on a path of healing and hope. This is an episode about courage in the middle of uncertainty, hope in the midst of loss, and the kind of trust that can only grow when you have no choice but to hold on to Jesus.

And as always, we start off the episode with what is bringing us joy and we know you will be so encouraged by this conversation. Listen free on Apple or Spotify, and join us on Patreon for an extended version of this episode as well as exclusive content!
