In this powerful episode of Hope Unlocked, host Kristin Kurtz sits down with Beth Burris to discuss how God used her own story of healing from shame to start a life-changing ministry. Beth and her co-leader, Julie Peterson, founded “Hem of His Garment,” a ministry for women bound by shame, particularly post-abortion trauma and other life experiences like abuse, eating disorders, and addiction.

Beth courageously shares her journey, which began with a deep-seated shame hidden for decades, rooted in experiences from her teenage years — teen pregnancy and abortion. Feeling unworthy and burdened by guilt, Beth’s shame became her identity, affecting her self-worth, decisions, and relationships, including a 27-year marriage. It wasn’t until she joined a post-abortion healing group that Beth found true freedom through Jesus, learning to let go of her pain and experience joy, peace, and a new identity in Christ.

Listeners will hear Beth’s inspiring reflections on how shame isolates us and keeps us from God’s purpose, while conviction gently guides us back to Him. She speaks about how Hem of His Garment helps women confront shame, share their stories, and find healing in a supportive, faith-based community. Beth also discusses the need for safe spaces within churches where women can openly address shame, break free from the enemy’s lies, and embrace the abundant life God promises.
