Veterans – Military Sexual Trauma

Celebrate Recovery Welcome Home Groups are a safe place for veterans and their family to connect.  Most military families miss the camaraderie that the military culture provides.  This can be achieved through Celebrate Recovery and Welcome Home Open Share Groups.

The Problem:

Military Sexual Trauma (MST) is a physical and psychological trauma.  MST results from a physical sexual assault, sexual battery, or sexual harassment that occurred while a Veteran was serving on active duty.  We define it as “repeated, unsolicited verbal or physical sexual contact which is threatening in nature.”  MST includes any sexual activity involving someone against their will for implied better treatment.  It also includes someone pressured or forced into sexual activity for other reasons.  MST includes unwanted sexual advances, sexual touching, grabbing, threatening, making offensive remarks about a person’s body or sexual activities.

Because of past sexual treatment during your military service do you:

  • Feel depressed, having intense, sudden emotional reactions to things; feeling angry or irritable all the time?
  • Feel emotionally “flat”, difficulty expressing emotions like love or happiness?
  • Have trouble falling or staying asleep, disturbing nightmares?
  • Use drugs or alcohol to deal with the emotional reactions from the memories of the sexual trauma?
  • Have trouble staying focused, often find your mind wondering, struggle to remember things?
  • Often find yourself being “triggered” into fear of future sexual trauma?
  • Feel isolated or disconnected from others, trouble in relationships with employers or authority figures, difficulty trusting others?
  • Experience physical health problems such as, sexual difficulties, chronic pain, weight or eating issues, gastrointestinal issues?

The Solution:

Survivors of MST can experience recovery when… 

  • We recognize that we are powerless to heal the damaged emotions resulting from our MST. We look to God for the power to make us whole.
  • We admit that God’s plan for our lives includes victory over the experience of abuse.
  • We understand the people who abused us are responsible for the abusive acts committed against us. We will not accept the guilt, shame and fear resulting from MST.
  • We look to God and His Word to find our identity as worthwhile and loved human beings.
  • We are honestly sharing our feelings with God and at least one other person to help us identify the areas that need cleansing and healing.
  • We accept the responsibility for our negative actions because of our MST.
  • We are willing to accept God’s help in the decision and the process of forgiving those who have perpetrated against us.
  • We are willing to mature in our relationships with God and others.
  • We are willing to be used by God as an instrument of healing and restoration in the lives of others.
  • Attend Large Group weekly and participate in a Welcome Home Open Share group.
  • Join a Celebrate Recovery Step Study Group.

* The Solution is partially based on the book Helping the Victims of Sexual Abuse by Lynn Heitritter and Jeanette Vought.

We admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. James 5:16a NIV

Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord. Lamentations 3:40 NIV

We have to acknowledge our baggage in order to let it go. Otherwise, we'll keep lugging around burdens God never intended us to carry.

The Lord...visits the iniquity of the fathers on the children and the children’s children, to the third and the fourth generation. Exodus 34:7

But Jesus Christ has the power to break EVERY chain, including the cycle of generational sin!!

Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship. Romans 12:1 NIV

For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose. Philippians 2:13 NIV

When we believe God can fix what we have been unable to, we find hope like never before.
