Episode Description:
Why You Need to Be Gentle With Yourself on This Journey is a talk God put on my heart after encountering so many trauma survivors who struggle with their faith because of harsh treatment from people within the Christian community regarding their struggles. Many people have not only not received compassion, love, and understanding, but they've been blamed for their trauma. We're often taught not to have compassion for ourselves, and not following the fruits of the spirit of gentleness, meekness, lowliness, and kindness to others is rampant even in the Christian community. There is oftentimes even narcissism and abuse within the church. This talk calls for us to be kinder and gentler with ourselves on the healing journey, as we are called to be with others, to give ourselves a little credit for our progress, and to learn to take a gentle approach when navigating the healing journey.
