Episode description

Christians tend to move around.  They come to your church from another church across town because they are searching for something they haven’t found elsewhere.

When people come from other churches, we can be faced with several ethical dilemmas. For example, what about people who come to us as victims of spiritual abuse? What if it is a pastor we know?

During the podcast, we delve into solving these ethical questions and offer real solutions.

I can attest from personal experience that coming away from a spiritually abusive environment is not easy. Here is the reason: To become genuinely free of spiritual abuse, you must address what attracted you to it in the first place.

I republished a book about this experience I had more than 30 years ago and it is now available on Kindle, as a paperback and also on Audiobooks. It is entitled Spiritual Abuse: How To Break Free From Toxic Churches Without Losing Your Faith. The book shares my journey as both a congregant and a leader over 15 years of my Christian life. If you would like to read 3 chapters of the book, click this link and click synopsis.

In addition, I mentioned a few other resources. The first is a book entitled, The Subtle Power of Spiritual Abuse and Healing Spiritual Abuse.
