It's been described as the word of the decade. But what does it actually mean?

It's more than just a buzzword. Trauma could be the quiet reality of many people sitting in your church on a Sunday. The ones who shake your hand at the door. The ones who nod along during the sermon. The ones who say, “I’m grand,” even when they’re not. Maybe even you.

Even if you haven’t faced trauma yourself, the chances are someone close to you has - a friend, a family member, someone in your small group. Maybe they’ve never spoken about it. Maybe they don’t even have the words to describe what they’ve been through.
