More than seemingly ever before, the church is at the center of some type of incident, scandal, abuse, or cover up that causes all sorts of damage and hurt. If you’ve been around the church (or Christians) for any period of time, then chances are you’ve either witnessed other people get hurt by the church or you’ve experienced church hurt yourself.
