Navigating Church Hurt: Context and Recommendations

Whether it’s a public scandal captured in the headlines or a private offense held closely in our hearts, many of us have been hurt by others in the church. In this panel discussion from TGC’s 2024 Women’s Conference, Winfree Brisley, Karen Hodge, Ruth Chou Simons, and Irene Sun explore various kinds of church hurt and offer gospel-centered guidance for navigating them both practically and spiritually. They share personal stories, emphasize prayer, humility, and accountability, and remind us why the church—despite its brokenness—is still worth loving as the body of Christ, full of hope and healing.
