God is love and if you represent the god in you, you will see the god in other people, no matter where they're at in their life.
What happens when two women from completely different worlds come together to share their stories? In this heartfelt episode of 'Wrap Around Love', Barbara Robinson and Janine Wegner open up about their unique journeys, diving deep into topics like faith, love, race, and friendship. Barbara's story is one of incredible resilience, having faced childhood trauma, abuse, and addiction cycles in North Omaha, Nebraska.
Yet, through it all, she found redemption and a new purpose thanks to the unwavering support of friends and her faith in Jesus. Janine, on the other hand, comes from a middle-class background, but her connection with Barbara transcends their different upbringings. Their bond is rooted in the Wrap Around Love movement, which aims to envelop those in crisis with empathy and unconditional love.
The episode takes listeners through the contrasting lifestyles of middle-class and inner-city beginnings, showing how love and understanding can bridge even the widest gaps. One of the most touching moments comes when Barbara talks about her son, Charles, who is currently in jail for murder. Despite his circumstances, Charles experienced the transformative power of Wrap Around Love through Janine's father, who visited him in jail and led him to Christ.
This act of compassion gave Charles hope and the strength to believe in a better future. Barbara's words resonate deeply: 'God is love and if you represent the god in you, you will see the god in other people, no matter where they're at in their life'.
This episode is a testament to the power of love to change lives and is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the impact of childhood trauma, addiction, and race relations on individuals and communities.
