Years ago I suffered spiritual abuse. I learned a lot by that experience. I still attend church, not that church but I now know the difference between abusive, controlling leadership and true Biblical leadership. My heart and my soul is set on God's word and I have confidence that the Holy Spirit will continue to lead me into truth. I recognize those red flags early on now and respond accordingly. I will not tolerate those abusive behaviors any longer.

It takes time to understand and heal from spiritual abuse, this was a game changer moment in this video. Abusive leadership often cause you to leave feeling misunderstood and condemned, and it takes time to renew yourself in relationship with God and ready again to rejoin and find your place in a church. Take your time to find a church where each person's relationship with God is more important than 'church' as an institution. Thank you for a good discussion.

just LOVE DR LANGBERG

I would love to be student of dr Langberg here in Croatia europe, we need it desparetly

My story!

I so love the Lord and want to be part of a church, but am afraid of the wolves I constantly encounter when I go there. I'm not sure how to respond to wolves!?! Leave??? I'm running out of options. There are either false teachers, wolvish people and leaders, or there is alot of heavy shepherding calling us to come UNDER their authority. Church has become a scary place.

I am afraid to go to church as well.

Could this apply to a Christian choir director as well as a Pastor?

​​​​​@@MaxandsheThank you so much for your reply. This actually happened to me in a gospel choir I used to belong to. It still affects me what the young male Christian choir director did not just to me but others too. I'm now thankfully away from that choir and that whole bad environment. I'm now part of a really nice choir. God bless.

My Christian mother took me to a movie when I was 9 that showed me the rapture and my suffering in he'll so I would fall in line and obey her better and that was one of the smaller ones. Accidentally married a narc and didn't escape before I died internally. The church was there to support him. Guess setting leg traps for your wife is acceptable, just lie. I no longer care about helping anyone. If they are chained in a basement, it must be so they can learn a lesson.

Great background music where can I find it?

I can never not be born again, so God has me as His own, but how can I be part of abusive institutions!!!

Most do that. Most pastors do that.

Happened to me. I'll be telling my story to the world.

Have you read the new book, Under Authority, by Kimalee Finelli? It’s about a young girl being raised in an authoritarian Baptist church and the effects it had on her family and finding forgiveness and liberty. You will laugh and cry with them!

U mean Robbie Robbins

This music is distracting

My church made me full of fear and self hatred. Thank God l left but the experience caused me to leave Christianity completely. I now reject the bible and the Christian God totally. It's really sad that these things happen to so many people. Would have been nice to have a belief system to fall back on in times of stress.
