we have to define what church hurt is there is the sinful nature of man that the sin has caused
someone to stumble correct that's church hurt that i'm talking about but then there's hurt feelings
right if you're extra sensitive if um you work on staff and you've been let go and you got your
feelings hurt but then you cause division in the church that's something different yeah and so that
because we have to identify because the scripture does talk about that kind of hurt where sin
has happened we're abused he overstepped you physically harm someone you sexually abuse someone
which we are living in today's headline there are priests pastors youth pastors in certain movements
and yet you have never addressed that's the hurt that we're talking about not hurt feelings not
because i don't like the carpet that we chose for the for the to be honest more church hurt is that
like people yes i hate to inform people but that is not church hurt you got your feelings hurt but
now you're running rampant gossiping about the church that you're causing harm to your
own children and family which will display and manifest where your kids will no longer attend
the church i want to help you get healed get whole get delivered because it will affect your family
now talking about this sinful church hurt where you know people in power have abused their places
um have used their roles to either extort either manipulate either overpower a man or a woman now
it's up to us when they come into our church now we have a deliverance ministry because we have to
heal that hurt and so that is not only wrong it's ungodly it is unscriptural you should not be in
places of power you should be sat down and you should go through a process of restoration why
because lives in the kingdom are held in the balance because of that now for my personal
story i we've been harmed by sinful church hurt where our leaders he was our paul we were his
timothies came out of the closet divorced his wife that's the story for them to tell five children it
affected their family she's growing she's blooming she is such an essential part of the kingdom she
is healed hold and delivered and now she is going and preaching through that lens of that story but
we've been impacted of course by that hurt and so my husband and i we went through just
the grassroots movement of just learning to heal learning to trust learning to build a family again
learning to not dishonor the man or the office but to forgive and to keep believing in god's bride
his wife his girlfriend his fiancee he's going to come back and consummate history with
because christians bear the name of christ it can be difficult to know or to disassociate what
christians have done to me from what god has done to me but i think we would do well to just study
the person of god the character traits of god going through the psalms and seeing who it is
that we worship the thing about god is that god is holy there is no iniquity that you could attribute
to him there is no sin that he could ever be judged for he is fully holy and pure and without
fault he cannot and will never sin against you and so because god is holy we can always know that his
dealings with us are good and it's having that theological framework of the character and the
person of god that i think allows us to see that just because a person hurt me is not the same as
god hurting me but because god is good and because god is holy even though they might have hurt me he
is strong enough to heal me and so i don't want to i don't want to cause my distrust of them
to flesh itself out and how i distrust god we have to trust him because we have no other choice
