“Church hurt” has become such a common phrase that it trends on social media, makes headlines, and is even the subject of a few documentaries. Yet within the church, we often struggle to talk openly about it. Not because we don’t care, but because we don’t always know how.
Well, if you’re one of the precious many who have been touched by church hurt, you’ll be encouraged by this honest and insightful conversation.
Today’s guest, Pastor Joe Dobbins, brings compassion, wisdom, and practical advice to help you understand the nature of church hurt, begin the journey of healing, and find the courage to re-engage in a faith community. He also shares how we, as the body of Christ, can be part of the solution—without church bashing.
The pain of church hurt is real, my friend, but so is the hope of healing—healing that can begin today!
