    Thank you. I've had that "church hurt" I was hurt so bad when i came into the church i needed nothing else but to be loved. And it was nothing of that. Ive had to do it on my own. No family and nobody giving emotional or spiritual support. By reading the holy bible and listening to christian music. Its what gives me true comfort.

    Also leaders being more humble/transparent about their own struggles (either bf or after their salvation experience) would be helpful in healing church hurt. Because a lot of leaders project this perfect image, vs. how the Bible instructs us to confess our faults one to another *in order that* we may be healed (James 5:16). The younger saints are having problems overcoming because the testimonies of the older saints are not being shared per Revelation 12:11.

    I think the basic problem with church is the idolatry of pastors and leaders. That's why we don't hold them accountable. That's why we somtimes are unable to realize the ungodliness in them. That's why most people get guided by men and not by the Holy Spirit. I truly believe everybody in a congregation holds the same reponsibility: to help everybody grow spiritually by getting closer to Christ. And we're not doing that. At least that's what I've observed from the few congregations I've visited and from observing my own congregation.

    This is so rich!! Thank you for speaking so openly about a very difficult and covered up subject. So many times, some churches become about programs and agendas and people get lost in the mix as agendas and immature people try to lead never having experienced life as their congregation has...nor do they know how to even minister to their members, or people from different walks.

After I left that church iv been looking for a home church and not giving up on God leading me to a body of believers where I can grow more with others. Also I have to thank God for the first church I attended because I was draw to Gods love in that church. I pray for the leaders and thank God for all hes allowed me to learn and unlearn from that church. My two adult now kids blame that church of why they dont want to go to church. I tell them man will fail you but God never will.

    Pastor of church spoke against racism on my birthday two years ago. I already knew there is an issue with that at predominantly Caucasian church to this day, I haven't and will not join. I was in Bible study class with one other lady of my race who had been there for many years. I noticed how she thought she had to prove herself to them at my expense. Christmas of 2021 one of women had Christmas party& I wasn't invited to. They spent time with one another outside of church but not with me. Time came where I didn't have car to get to church which is 11 miles from where I live. First time in my life that Ive had to deal with racism,because other races treated me better than my own. For years I lived that way. I brought topic up to other black friends of mine two weeks ago and they ignored it. There is one lady at church who goes out of her to kiss all black people on cheek. I saw her yesterday. I was sort of annoyed the first time she did that,but now I look for her. I only attend church twice a month now as not to be burden to lady who picks me up. She lives not too far from me. She was member of my former church and God put her back in my life. She saw my oldest son yesterday for first time in 21 years. Maybe God will use this to get me to love my own race more& them to love me.

    I'm struggling with Church hurt.... my family got destroyed by Church hurt, it took along time for me to go back to Church at all, as soon as I did I witnessed another family go through Church hurt and abruptly leave the Church which bought back hurtful memories.... I changed Churches and am seeing yet more people get hurt in the Church environment, the leaders are very young and I think that's why they struggle to understand messy people who have lived through some rough times also as they themselves have not. I am also feeling unrest for other reasons and I can feel myself wanting to give up and fall away. It's hard to find a Church that doesn't feel more like a country club. The closest I've ever felt to Jesus was alone in Lockdown with my bible.

With growth comes wisdom and with wisdom comes discernment. Those who intentionally violate trust and offend will be held accountable for their actions.

I think that’s the problem, there’s an automatic need to defend or explain away..and that is why serious egregious issues in the church are not being dealt with. We’re not defending GOD here or ourselves so please speak on uncomfortable topics boldly and stop trying to be obtuse and makes everything smell or look good.
    This was a much needed to discuss topic but someway it turned into a mushy topic that sideswiped the depth of hurt happening to desperate people in need of GOD and kindness that are being turned away from church

    I'm sorry but, where is the Holy Spirit in all of this hurt? AS regarding leaders, I'm not talking about new initiates/disciples to the faith, they're babies after all. But seasoned saints of God, who are operating in the fullness of the Holy Spirit should have a measure of discernment (it's granted at the in-filling of the Holy Spirit. And as we grow closer to God, through prayer and fasting, study of the word and being in God's presence we develop more spiritual eyes. So why the surprise when someone comes out of a closet? Why did you remain uninformed spiritually?
    I often wonder when people make statements like this why the operation of the Holy Spirit was dimmed in their lives to the extent they were taken but surprise. There have been many, many times when the Holy Spirit gave me understanding of spirits operating in the church. Spiritual sensitivity is a real thing.
    Again, I can understand the young, the newly born in Christ. It takes time to develop that sensitivity. But if you've been in church for a long time, you've been in attendance and are in close fellowship with God, you'll know when a goat is near. You can actually smell sin - it stinks.
