In this episode, we return to the raw and painful moments of August 2023—the second month in our healing journey. We talk about the impossible odds of saving our marriage after betrayal, the emotional weight of therapeutic separation, and the heart-wrenching process of rebuilding from ground zero. From moments of profound spiritual insight—like a lakeside baptism and the realization of hidden idols—to crushing lows marked by loneliness, fear, and exhaustion, this episode pulls back the curtain on the intense work of healing. We also reflect on what true intimacy means, the trauma of broken trust, and the quiet, relentless hope that somehow, even this can be redeemed.

In a spiritual context, a "sacred wound" refers to a deep, transformative trauma or suffering that, instead of being a source of negativity, becomes a catalyst for growth, healing, and a deeper connection with the divine or oneself.

When God creates Eve, He calls her an “ezer kenegdo.” That’s the word used in the original Hebrew in Genesis 2:18. Turns out, this phrase is notoriously difficult to translate into English.

Josh and Avonlea discuss how these two important topics influenced their healing journey.
