How to Heal From Church Hurt (Podcast 510)

I don’t think I know anyone who has been a believer for any length of time who hasn’t experienced a wound in their church life and experience. Some of these wounds are what I would call merely flesh wounds, but some are incredibly deep and can cause lasting damage.   I’ve heard from countless moms who have experienced this, including friends, and my own family.  It's easy to become bitter and cynical when it seems like we are the only army that wounds its own soldiers. However, I don’t think that is the whole story because that is not the God we serve and I can’t imagine that He would want us to stop at the point of our pain. But how do we heal? How do we trust again?    Today Wes joins me again, this time to talk about healing from church hurt.   Resources mentioned in this episode: Link to podcast episode search bar The Unhurried Homeschooler Audio Book Raising Boys to Men Book If you purchase Raising Boys to Men you will receive a gift!
