On this week's episode of Surviving the Black Church Podcast, Jonathon, Hugh, and Nikki discuss a very important topic - Church Hurt vs Religious Trauma Part 1.
Within the Black Church community, the phrase "Church Hurt" is often associated with spiritual abuse and traumatic events experienced by a survivor within the church.
"Church Hurt" is often used interchangeably with religious trauma or spiritual abuse.
On this week's episode, the Surviving the Black Church Crew makes a clear distinction that "Church Hurt" is not the same thing as religious trauma.
Is this something that you've wondered about? Have you had trouble determining if what you are experiencing may actually be religious trauma within the Black Church or church at large?
If so, you don't want to miss this week's episode! It's packed with great conversation and validation for survivors who have been on this journey alone.
Stay tuned for part 2 next week!
