What started as a fresh start after divorce turned into a nightmare Kimberly Haar never saw coming. After ending a 23-year marriage and finally finding love again, Kimberly’s ex-husband broke into her home in the middle of the night with a gun. Hours later, she heard three gunshots outside the house of the man she believed she would marry. That man survived being shot 10 times.
In this powerful episode of When You Look, Kimberly shares the unbelievable true story of trauma, survival, healing, forgiveness, and the unmistakable presence of God in the middle of unimaginable pain. From assault and kidnapping to miraculous recovery and restoration, this conversation explores what it really means to run toward God when life completely falls apart.
Kimberly also opens up about:
• surviving domestic violence and trauma
• healing emotionally after abuse
• faith during suffering
• the moment she felt the presence of God beside her
• Andrew surviving after being shot 10 times
• how they still got married that same year
• reclaiming life after grief, loss, and trauma
If you’ve ever wrestled with fear, heartbreak, betrayal, anxiety, or wondered where God is in your darkest moments, this episode is for you.
