Stories of spiritual abuse, and resources to help restore relationship with God
en
This is a place of healing for those who have suffered abuse (or question whether they have). This site is designed to provide an anonymous place to share experiences, pray for each other and recognize abusive patterns and toxic environments in the church.
Spiritual abuse can be defined as "an attempt to control someone using religion or spirituality for personal gain, commonly resulting in harm." Often it involves a misuse of authority or leadership within a religious community.
Please keep the community positive and uplifting. This is not the place...
