What do you wish your therapist knew about developmental religious trauma?

Proud of the work my friend Eric at @preacherboysdoc has done in exposing the cult and abuse hidden inside the IFB church denomination. He has been a steady and strong voice for us, the survivors of the IFB. You need to watch Let Us Prey.

Excited that my friends get to tell their story. I know it will bring hope and healing to many. Thank you, for your courage. 💙

Don’t be fooled into thinking someone has strong character when what they really have is a strong persona.

Deconstruction involves a dissection of what is holy and what is human.

Deconstruction does not have a predefined end-game or pre-determined outcome, and this is why many find it frightening. Instead, it is a step towards embracing sacred questions, autonomous spirituality and willingness to toss dogma to the side while seeking for truth.

The church would do well to remember there is a vast difference between sharing the message of Jesus with as many people as possible and living the message of Jesus to the people around you. One is lip service & feels good, the other is a lifestyle & takes hard work. #hegetsus

Just because you are challenging some church or religious normatives does not mean you are trauma informed or understand abuse dynamics.

A few months ago, I had the grand adventure of being interviewed by Doni Aldine from Culturs Magazine. We discussed cults and unexpected DNA discoveries. The intersection of these topics? Family. 💙 Take a listen: cultursmag.com/the-destinatio…
