Church Chronicles: Ep3: Healing from Church Trauma - Forgiveness, Trust, and Spiritual Renewal

Welcome to the Diary of a Black Woman Podcast with Church Chronicles. I’m your host, Connie Morris. Today, we’re continuing our exploration of healing from the deep wounds of church trauma. In this episode, we’ll focus on three essential steps for moving forward: forgiveness, rebuilding trust, and developing a personal relationship with spirituality.

Church trauma can leave us with a heavy burden of bitterness and distrust, often isolating us from the very faith that once brought us comfort. But healing is possible, and it begins with the courage to forgive—not just others but also us. We’ll discuss how to rebuild trust, not only in spiritual communities but also in God, who remains faithful even when people fall short.

We’ll also explore the importance of developing a personal, direct relationship with God, one that’s rooted in love and authenticity, independent of any institution. If you’ve ever struggled with letting go of the past and finding a way to move forward, this episode is for you.

Let’s walk this journey together, finding the strength to forgive, the wisdom to set healthy boundaries, and the courage to reconnect with God in a new and profound way.
