Church Hurt | part 1

Jun 23, 2021    Alex Elliott

"Eventually I just kind of stopped going..." This is an all too common phrase among people who have been hurt in a church setting. The hurt might have come from a person, a circumstance, or just change. No matter how the hurt occurred, it's very real and it's devastating to the Body of Christ when it makes a member of the body feel isolated and alone. In this two-part episode, we talk with Alex Elliott who experienced "church hurt" in a church setting many years ago and has since found healing, forgiveness, and a better understanding that the church is made up of "imperfect people". We discuss what church hurt really is and how the Bible says we should deal with it. We also get the unique perspective of how hurt among members impacts church leadership from Pastor Bobbi Morgan. Our prayer in this episode is that our listeners might hear something encouraging and uplifting that inspires them to take some steps forward toward restoration and reconnection with the Body of Christ. Part two of this episode will be released tomorrow!
