A seasoned and sensitive journey into wholeness and inner healing.--Neil T. Anderson
When a person is subjected to severe, long term, intentional abuse, the damage is devastating and forges barriers, perhaps even fragmentation, in the persons heart and mind. As a result, abuse survivors are little able to function normally and trust few who attempt to help them--let alone a God who, in their minds, allowed the abuse to happen. So how can counselors, pastors, and healing ministers help them find true healing?
For fifteen years, Candyce Roberts has devoted her life to working with the highly traumatized. In this remarkable book she offers effective, real-life strategies, tools, encouragement, and hope for those who desire to help others receive freedom and move into a life infused with the Fathers truth and love.

Candyce is the real deal. In a world where there are lots of unfounded ideas and growing complexity, Candyce shows us that simplicity, love and power are always Gods best. You will find this book a refreshing and interesting journey into a world where only those, like Candyce, who know their God, thrive and cause others to do so too. Jump in!

Andy Reese, author of Freedom Tools for Overcoming Lifes Tough Problems

Candyce Roberts is the most gifted person I know in regard to helping traumatized people regain the life that was stolen from them in their youth. This book is filled with insights and practical advice tested and proven by years of experience in the healing ministry. It has given me more confidence to pray for the severely wounded.

Dr. Jack Deere, author and pastor

I heartily recommend this book to you if you are in any way ministering to or praying for those who have been significantly traumatized, and especially for those of you who love them and need to understand them better. Dr. Robertss considerable experience has here been presented in a very commonsense, straightforward, readily digestible manner that is easily employed. It will provide you with a solid understanding to meld with your existing ministry foundations that will allow you to broaden your ability to effectively minister to the brokenhearted.

Jim Banks, founder/director, House of Healing Ministries, Asheville, North Carolina / Campbellsville, Kentucky

Dr. Candyce Roberts writes, teaches and ministers with undeniable clarity. Few understand the depth of the trauma that she writes about. This topic is often denied, misunderstood or seen as unresolvable. This book is not just educational; it provides hope for any whose lives have been impacted by such tragedy.

Stephen Johnson, Stephen Johnson & Associates Counseling Center, Lexington, Kentucky

The most informative book Ive read on inner healing. Her simple yet profound examples explain how to help the most traumatized people, yet the principles apply to us all. Candyce has helped countless people in our church and trained up our prayer team. Her book will be a welcome addition!

Chuck Snekvik, associate pastor, Greater Boston Vineyard Church

Foreword

F or years I have been traveling around the United States equipping the Church to establish her people alive and free in Christ. I encountered a number of pastors and counselors who were trying to help victims of satanic ritual abuse (SRA). I first I thought it was an anomaly. This couldnt possibly be widespread. Could it?

I come from a very conservative background, and the idea that people actually worship Satan was not part of my experiential and educational grid. I could not even fathom why anyone would want to do that. But it is happening all over America, and their rituals contain abuses that defy the imagination. So horrible are the atrocities that the vast majority of victims dissociate in order to survive. For most victims, a relatively normal person presents him- or herself to the world, which some call the host personality, but these individuals are plagued by dissociated parts or other personalities. Each personality represents a portion of time in the persons past, and each has a story to tell.

Their diagnosis is dissociative identity disorder (DID), and treatment varies from one discipline to another. I have heard secular counselors admit that the Church should somehow be involvedeven though they dont believe the message. Their track record is abysmal, because you cannot resolve this problem without taking into account the reality of the spiritual world, and there is no wholeness without Christ. Even Christian counselors have little success unless they understand the spiritual battle for the mind.

All SRA survivors hear voices in their heads. Some are condemning, accusing and blasphemous. Others sound like human personalities, of which many are children. Those voices could be demonic, or they could be fragmented personalities. The pastoral error is to assume they are all demonic and try to get rid of them through various deliverance techniques. But what if some of those voices are personalities? You cannot get rid of them, because they are part of the person. The counselors error is to believe that the voices are all fragmented personalities and try to integrate them into the host personality. But what if they are demons? The survivor usually can tell one from the other.

I have helped thousands who have no dissociated parts find their freedom from deceiving spirits. But I have never seen an SRA victim who has a true DID without also having a demonic problem. It is possible, but I have not yet seen it, and neither have most of the Christian counselors and pastors that I know. Working with these dear people requires a lot of patience and discernment.

Another troubling observation is the varied explanations for the origin of the problem. Every year I would hear a new theory. I started to wonder what is wrong with this picture. For years I have said that the right prescription does not yet exist, but when it does it will likely be something like what Dr. Candyce Roberts offers.

Dr. Roberts has not succumbed to all the pat answers and quick fixes that so plague the industry. She has gotten away from counseling techniques borrowed from the secular world and learned to depend on the Wonderful Counselor who leads us into all truth and sets us free. She also has the right goal, which is not integration. A fractured mind is the problem, but integration is not an end. It is a beginning. The same reasoning holds for getting people free in Christ, which also is not an end, but a beginning. These people have a dysfunctional background and have never learned how to live the normal Christian life in a community of grace.

This book does not supply all the answers. No one book can, but it will make a valuable contribution to those who are struggling to get free and to those who are helping them. Dr. Roberts does not cover the demonic interference, and when I questioned her about it, she simply said, I do the same thing you do. So you may want to read The Bondage Breaker (Anderson, Harvest House) as a companion to this book if this is all new to you. In Dr. Robertss book, you will find a seasoned and sensitive journey to wholeness and inner healing.
