Publisher's summary

The people of God hurt you—but the heart of God is to heal you.

Written for anyone wounded in a place of worship, and unsure how to move forward in their faith, this powerful book is an insightful and honest guide into eight unique types of church hurt—and how to heal from them.

Having helped thousands move from anger, distrust, apathy, and heartache to safely reengaging in their faith—and local church—Pastor Joe Dobbins offers compassion, wisdom, and practical advice to help you understand why church hurt is so potent and hard to address; break free from bad beliefs, self-defeating patterns, and cycles of pain; discover the way to inner healing; release your pain and reframe your story; find the courage to reengage in a faith community; and protect yourself in the future.

The pain of church hurt is real. But so is the hope of healing-and that healing can begin today.

A must read for anyone who’s been hurt by church!

I’ve been hurt by multiple church leaders over the years and this book was so helpful! Joe did such a good job of diagnosing the problem, empathizing with my pain and providing practical steps forward. If you love Jesus, but have been hurt in church, don’t miss this book!

Rich and Real

Not only for those who’ve experienced common or life-altering
church hurt themselves, but for those generous souls that will help walk others through that pain. Every believer should be equipped with the principles and perspective this book provides.

Phenomenal, anointed, sound

This book is a must read. Going into it. I thought I didn’t have much to get out of it, but I got so much more than I bargained for. Even though a lot of the thoughts, emotions and experiences were difficult, they also brought a healing I never thought I could’ve had. There are so many people that need this book but haven’t heard of it, or won’t read it because they think it does not apply to them.
