God Uses Broken Stories for His Healing Work: Holly Hayes The Jesus Storybook Bible Podcast

    • Christianisme

God can find you anywhere—even on the bathroom floor. That’s what Holly Hayes discovered in her lowest moment. Holly’s the founder of Sanctuary Project, a social enterprise where survivors of human trafficking earn meaningful employment by make beautiful jewelry. As a survivor herself, Holly uses her story to tell others that God isn’t interested in “perfect.” He uses the sick, the lonely, and the broken to do good work in the world.


Quotes
“What I see in scripture is a Jesus who empowered women.” —Holly Hayes
“The religious men were the ones that Jesus was saying, ‘Nope, you have it all wrong.’ The widow, the poor, the lost, the broken, the lonely, those were the ones that God seemed to use the most. Not only am I loved by God, rescued by God, saved by God, but also, He wants to use me.” —Holly Hayes
“Community is where we can reflect God's love and mercy to each other, to help each other to feel safe, to just say, ‘Help’ or ‘I'm hurting’ or ‘I'm joyful.’ We can honest about about how we are and where we are.” —Holly Hayes
