Diane Langberg

In one of the most soul-stirring talks ever delivered from our THINQ stage, Dr. Diane Langberg reframes trauma—not as something to avoid, fix, or minimize—but as a sacred place of service. She invites us to see those who suffer not as problems to solve, but as people to be present with. With decades of experience counseling survivors of abuse, violence, and spiritual harm, Diane offers not only theological clarity, but a profoundly human reminder: the Church must become a people of refuge. Her message is a wake-up call to embody Christ’s compassion where the world is hurting most.
