Although the Church does so much more good than it has ever done bad, several pressing questions still linger - What do you do when you are hurt by “The Church?” Maybe you’ve been hurt by a pastor or a church leader or a member of the church. Do you walk out of Christianity and abandon the church altogether? Or are there any other alternatives? Joining us today to help us unpack some of these challenging yet necessary questions is a man who just released a new song and FREE 7-Day Devotional on the topic, Matt Hammitt. Many may be familiar with Matt’s work as he’s a renowned singer and songwriter having served as the lead singer for Sanctus Real from 1996-2016 as well as being an impactful author and sought after speaker. However, recently, God placed it upon Matt’s heart to release his new single titled, “Church Hurt,” along with a FREE 7-Day Devotional titled, “Life After Church Hurt,” in order to appeal to the heart of those who have been wounded within families of faith and encourage and equip them through a lens of hope and healing. Through his own personal experiences as well as insightful lessons God has taught him throughout his journey, our prayer is that today’s episode would help you begin to takes steps toward healing in knowing that although people will hurt us, we cannot let that affect or infect our view of God and the church He loves.
