Episode 75 - Winnie McClutchie, Part 1: Extreme Abuse, Beautiful Redemption
In this episode, we dive into the incredible story of Winnie McClutchie, who bravely shares her journey from a traumatic childhood steeped in abuse to finding hope in Christ. Starting with her tormented upbringing, Winnie opens up about the generational abuse she endured and her early *negative* exposure to Christianity. Angry at God, Winnie became an atheist and had her first attempted s*icide at just eight years old. Neglect and poverty later led to Winnie falling into criminal activity, including fraud and identity theft.
However, Winnie’s story doesn’t stop there. Later in life, through the work of the Lord, she was able to forgive her abusive mother. Winnie's journey is a powerful testament to the transformative and redemptive work of the Holy Spirit.
