Christine Milano's raw testimony of trauma, addiction, and redemption leaves no stone unturned as she recounts her journey from childhood sexual abuse to spiritual freedom. Beginning at just three years old, Christine endured sexual abuse that would continue until she was ten, creating deep wounds she'd carry silently for decades. This early trauma manifested in a profound belief that she was unloved, leading to self-harm, dissociation, and two suicide attempts that her family barely knew about.
Despite finding moments of joy through motherhood, Christine's unhealed wounds drew her into destructive relationships. For ten years, she endured severe domestic violence in her second marriage with a meth-addicted spouse who broke her nose and choked her multiple times. When that relationship finally ended, alcohol became her escape. What began as social drinking quickly spiraled into severe alcoholism, with Christine drinking vodka straight and receiving three DUIs in a single year.

Tune in to hear the miraculous comeback as God intervened and completely delivered her!
