Faith Hakesley offers healing!
In this episode of the Ruth Institute Podcast, we listen to a dear associate of the Ruth Institute, Faith Hakesley.
Faith Hakesley offers healing for victims of sexual abuse with her powerful book “Glimmers of Grace: Moments of Peace and Healing Following Sexual Abuse”
Faith, a survivor of sexual abuse, speaks on Ladies of Another View on BEK TV.
Faith shares her tragic story of dealing with being sexually abused at the hands of a newly ordained priest. She relates the pain and suffering she experienced and the effects it had on her relationships with family and friends. Faith also describes how the tragic early death of her brother led to her finally telling her parents the truth.
Perhaps the most important part of this interview is the advice Faith offers to those who have been abused and to those who are helping abuse victims.
You will want to listen to hear the full details.

“Infertility is hard, it is a cross, it is suffering, but we can help each other by recognizing that and choosing things that will lift up humanity instead of introduce so many harms.”
IVF is often sold as a treatment for infertility, and couples who struggle with infertility flock to it. On the surface, it appears to more than adequately deal with the problem, but if you scratch the surface, there are a host of issues that plague the couples, children, and industry. And the funny thing is, IVF doesn’t actually cure infertility. Whatever biological issues caused the infertility will still exist after IVF treatment. Katie McMann discusses her own journey with IVF, the Catholic perspective on IVF, healing from the negative effects of IVF, and setting up a ministry to help people struggling with having used IVF.
Many women experience infertility or impaired fertility at some point in their lives. Some, such as Katie McMann, turn to in vitro fertilzation. Through IVF, she and her husband bore two children, but ten others were lost in the process.
Listen as Katie explains how, as well as reveals her painful realization of the problems with IVF, and how she came to co-found Shiloh IVF Ministry.
“At every stage of IVF, there’s risk to the embryos,” Katie notes, also sharing that some of her embryos didn’t survive the thawing process.
“I tried to say, ‘Oh, they’re just droplets of water. There’s no way they’re life.’ I really tried to tell myself that they weren’t children.”
Through Shiloh IVF Ministry, Katie helps couples deal with the hardship of infertility, discern what to do with frozen embryonic children, and more.
