The Transformative Power of God’s Love: Rebecca Bender’s Journey from Trauma to Triumph

Recently I was reading John and Kathy Burke’s Imagine the God of Heaven Devotional where Jesus is a Suffering Servant (reflection #53). It immediately took me back to a powerful testimony I shared on my podcast years ago.

The story of Rebecca Bender, a survivor of six years of human trafficking, shares her radical encounter with Jesus and the realization that He suffers when His love is rejected. Through her journey of healing and spiritual awakening, Rebecca found her purpose, leading to her significant contributions in aiding other survivors and advocating against human trafficking. The episode underscores the importance of faithful prayer and the unrelenting love of Jesus.

Romans 5:8 – “But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.”

Luke 15:7 (NIV): “I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.”
