Genesis | The Sin of Sexual Assault

In this message, we look at the story of Dinah, Jacob’s daughter, being sexually assaulted by Shechem. We exam the responses of different parties in the story and how they line up with the way in which God sees victims of sexual assault.
Ultimately the hope of this message is that through Jesus, God is creating a community of faith where victims today can experience what Dinah did not. A community where the Spirit causes people to feel your pain, to believe the truth about your story, to walk with you during the process of healing, and to share their own struggles and point you to God in the midst of them all.

Thank you so much for this message, me and my fiance are getting married this year and both victims of CSA, both of us are waiting for marriage for marriage too but feel shame over what happened when we were younger. She especially struggles in this area.
As a tough carpenter who rarely shows emotions I nearly broke down crying when you mentioned how God sees Dinah towards the end of your message!

Thank you for commenting, and for sharing how God used this message in your life. Praying He continues to redeem what Satan meant for harm, as you enter into marriage.
