  • Episode 22: How God Can Use It All for Good
    May 10 2024

    In this episode I discuss how God can take our wounds and trauma and use them for good. I relate this to the story of Joseph in Genesis 37-50 in the Old Testament. God is able to use brokenhearted people to help other brokenhearted people because of what they have been through and understand. So there are blessings in our Church Hurt as God has provided comfort.

  • Episode 21: How to Forgive
    Apr 23 2024

    In this episode I continue the topic of forgiveness when we have been wounded from Church Hurt. After discussing what forgiveness is not and then noting the benefits of forgiveness in the two previous episodes, I give a process for how to forgive. This can be difficult but it is worth it. This is reinforced by a quote that I end with from Nelson Mandela: “When a deep injury is done to us, we never heal until we forgive.”

  • Episode 20 - The Benefits of Forgiveness
    Mar 26 2024

    In this episode I continue discussing a big part of healing from our wounds and that is forgiveness. I focus on the benefits that occur to us spiritually, physically and emotionally when we forgive those who have hurt or traumatized us. This follows up the last episode in which I discussed the things that forgiveness is not but are often believed to be so. When we know the truth about what forgiveness is, along with the benefits of doing it, we can move on to actually forgiving.
