The Origins of Dr. Dan Allender’s Work

In the first of this two-part series, Rachael Clinton Chen
interviews Dan Allender about the origins of his work in helping
people address and heal sexual abuse. You’ll drop into Dan’s
story in the mid-1980s as he was finishing his doctoral studies.
He was asked a question by one of his clients: “What do you know
about sexual abuse?”


At the time, this very prevalent issue was not being addressed in
secular culture, let alone by the church. Listen to how Dan grew
into his unique role as a therapist, teacher, and innovative
leader to help bring healing and transformation to those who have
suffered harm and abuse.


Please note this does discuss the sensitive topic of sexual abuse
and may not be suitable for some listeners.
