All too often, we hear heartbreaking stories of "wolves in sheep's clothing"-abusers disguised as pastors, leaders, or spiritual mentors-who prey on the vulnerable, already wounded by trauma. Claiming to be "God's chosen," these wolves exploit trust to further victimize those barely holding onto their faith: the smoldering wicks.
In Rekindling the Smoldering Wick: Healing Wounds Left by Wolves, Pia Hugo-CEO of Zion Healing and Restoration Ministries and co-founder of Living Waters Safehouse-exposes the spiritual and emotional devastation caused by false shepherds within the Church. Drawing on years of front-line ministry experience and deep biblical insight, she unveils the truth behind these deceptions and offers a path to restoration.
Through gripping testimonies, timeless scriptural truths, and her signature framework-the Five Rs of Restoration-Pia delivers a rallying cry to survivors, ministers, and advocates alike: Let's take back what the enemy stole. Our identity. Our faith. Our hope. This is not just a book-it's part of a new spiritual movement to help set our collective fires ablaze once again.
Journey now through these pages to find healing, deliverance, and the Good Shepherd who is willing to make every wounded sheep whole again.
