If this is your case, I want you to know that I’m so sorry for the hurt that you have experienced. My friend, Pastor Larry Brey, from Elevation Church, and I sat down to discuss the topic of church hurt and how to overcome it.

It could stem from a misunderstanding or something else. Please remember, the church didn’t hurt you, a person did. That’s why it is important to speak up and share your hurt. It is also equally important to listen and understand what others are saying and feeling. Gratitude and offense journals are two practical ways to help you process this hurt.
