On this episode of This vs. That, we explore the topic of church hurt and discuss when to stay versus when to go.

We talk with author and Bible teacher Courtney Reissig about the different perspectives of church hurt—from being a witness in the pews, to causing hurt as a leader, to being the one who is hurt. Courtney shares her personal experiences and insights from nearly 20 years in ministry, highlighting the complexities and spectrum of church hurt.

We also discuss the importance of understanding expectations, the role of transparency, and the signs of an unhealthy church. Join us for an honest conversation that aims to shed light on an issue many have faced but few openly discuss.
