In this deeply moving episode of Kingdom Crossroads, T.S. Wright sits down with Denise Renken to explore a raw and transformative story of trauma, healing, forgiveness, and the restoring power of God.

Denise shares her journey from a childhood marked by abuse, abandonment, and broken trust to a life redeemed through faith, purpose, and restoration. Her testimony reveals how God can heal even the deepest wounds and restore what seems beyond repair—including a fractured marriage.

This conversation goes beyond surface-level encouragement and dives into the practical and spiritual process of forgiveness, identity in Christ, and emotional healing.
