Jessa & John Crisp

Host: Dr. James Dobson

March 02, 2023

After Jessa Dillow Crisp escaped sex trafficking at the age of 21, she earned her GED, began attending Bible college and even met her now husband, John. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Jessa shares that when she started dating John, who was a fellow Bible college student, he epitomized God’s grace and love when she revealed her shameful past to him. John shares with Dr. James Dobson that he told Jessa that she was not defined by her past, but was the Lord’s beautiful creation. 2 Corinthians 5:17 proclaims, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”
