How Does the Bible Bring You Grief?
i haven't experienced spiritual abuse or spiritual trama, but i have experienced other kinds of tramas and that has affected the way that it feels to read the bible. It's like the bible should actually bring us grief a lot at the time, if we really are in touch with human evil and pain. But i don't think we should push into that if it's causing us to be triggered. If genesis is triggering, hang out in the psalms, yes. Sometimes it's worth moving towards the things you bother us. And the biblical collection can help us in that journey of grown-up prayer.
