Let’s talk about the pain no one expects—hurt inside the church.
If you’ve been shamed with Scripture, silenced in the name of “unity,” or dismissed when you spoke up, this episode is for you.
In Ezekiel 34, God doesn’t look away—He confronts corrupt shepherds, defends His flock, and promises to personally rescue the wounded.
This isn’t just history.
It’s God’s heart on display: He’s not loyal to platforms—He’s loyal to His people.
When leaders exploit, He stands against them.
When sheep are scattered, He gathers and heals.
In This Episode, You’ll Discover:
✅ What “church hurt” is—and why it cuts so deeply
✅ How God Himself speaks against abusive leadership (Ezekiel 34:1–10)
✅ Why silence in the face of corruption isn’t loyalty—it’s complicity
✅ Hope for the wounded: the Good Shepherd still binds up the broken
If you’ve ever thought, “I love God, but I don’t know if I can trust His people…”
God sees what happened.
He does not minimize your pain.
He names it, and He moves toward you to heal.
❤️ If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who’s been hurt but still longs for healing.
