Shattered

Shattered. There is no crime more devastating than childhood sexual abuse. It steals the innocence and soul of its victims and leaves them in a world of silence and shame. Attempting to live in safety, survivors create a world of false security praying no one will ever discover the ugly secret and no one will hurt them again. For too long, these stories have hidden in the shadows, countless souls longing for freedom from the pain and suffering in their hearts. This is just one story that speaks for millions who are holding on to hope. Bill Harbeck is the executive director of Holding on to Hope Ministries. He is leading the way addressing the difficult topic of sexual abuse. This issue has been ignored far too long. Bill spent thirty-two years in education and is an experienced communicator. He is also the survivor of childhood sexual abuse. He speaks across the country informing communities about the prevalence and consequences to individuals and families. More important, he shares the good news of hope for survivors suffering in silence. Bill and his wife Jillian live in Phoenix, Arizona
