What is Spiritual abuse and how do you know if you have experienced religious trauma? This two-part interview with Dr. Charles Kiser explores the subtle yet significant ways unhealthy church cultures impact our experiences of God, self, and others. Today’s episode discusses and defines terms from Charles’ book Trauma-informed Evangelism that help put language to the stories and lived experiences of moral injury, spiritual abuse, and spiritual trauma. We will identify and distinguish the experiences that have left so many people hurting and harmed by toxic forms of spirituality and provide supportive encouragement to those walking through the recovery process.
