Episode 112: Abused, Broken, Still Worthy - Jenna Creasy, Part 1
Jenna’s story is one of unimaginable pain, radical courage, and the redeeming love of God.
From growing up in a broken home in New Jersey, walking through childhood abuse, and becoming pregnant as a teen - Jenna was told her baby wouldn’t survive and was offered a termination the next day. But she said no.
Her baby lived for 54 minutes.
And in the middle of that heartbreak… Jesus was in the room.
In Part 1 of her testimony, Jenna shares:
- What it was like to grow up with a fractured family and abuse
- Becoming pregnant at 19 and told her baby was “incompatible with life”
- How she encountered Christ during an emergency c-section
- The pain of losing her child and the spiral into toxic/abusive relationships
- Learning to find healing in Christ, and trust a godly man she didn’t feel worthy of
This is not a novel — this is real.
And it’s only Part 1.
