Open Wounds - Overcoming church-hurt

1 Follower

Open Wounds will be a journey that my audience, my guests, and I will take together. The topic is church-hurt. The reason I felt led to start this podcast is, I have heard a number of stories about some of the damage local churches have caused in the lives of believers and non-believers alike. I personally have suffered church-hurt. It's a part of my testimony, a part of who I have become as a dad, a husband, a friend and as a pastor. In many cases, just like any other abusive situation, the victim is blamed. It's not uncommon to hear others say, "he brought it upon himself", or "his hurt is self-inflicted", or "he just needs to get over it". These statements, tragically, come from those who profess to be followers of Jesus. As we proclaim the grace and humility of Jesus, we can quickly forget that we, as His children, are commanded to be just like Him. We are to love each other just as He loves us. In fact, the Apostle John writes that loving one another as Christ loves us is how others will know we are His disciples. However, as Christians we fall short of this command. Even those Christians we are supposed to trust the most. Our ministry leaders, our deacons, our elders and even our pastors can easily fall into the trap of pride and self-righteousness which inevitably can and does lead to hurting members of the flock. The Good News is, God allows us to go through situations in life, both good and bad, to make us into the people we need to be in order to fulfill His will. After all, faith is trusting God's will over our own. Again, Open Wounds is a journey we will take together. I'll be talking with people who have suffered church hurt and discussing what they experienced and how they have or are coping with it. I hope you will join us. I pray this podcast will be used by God to be a source of inspiration and healing for those who have been hurt by the people we're supposed to trust the most. After all, Jesus is our Savior, Sanctifier, HEALER, and Coming King.

I am also the Owner/CEO of Invisible Wounds: Healing from Trauma, which includes a weekly podcast, website, YouTube channel, and social media pages on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. I've worked with survivors of Intimate Partner Violence for over 12 years and with those who have Traumatic Brain Injury for 8 years. I work collaboratively with brilliant and wonderful professionals and groups around the world in this field! We work to promote research, provide education, training, and develop programs, tools and protocols for any organization, system, or group and to help those who've experienced Intimate Partner Violence and Traumatic Brain Injury personally. I am a survivor of both, and I have lots of lived experience with trauma, beginning from my earliest childhood memories onward. I started my podcast, websites, and YouTube channel as a way of connecting different shared experiences we may have with trauma, and steps we can take in order to heal, build resiliency, and grow! I can relate my story to others and talk to them about what has worked for me in recovering from a lifetime of trauma, brain injury, and adversity. Using a Trauma-Informed Care approach, I provide real world, relatable, and easy to use exercises in each podcast episode. Listeners can have tools to use to help them become more grounded, relaxed, and gain understanding around how trauma has impacted them and how they can heal one step at a time.
