In this webinar, we give voice to those who have suffered the devastating effects of spiritual abuse and hear the courageous testimony of a repentant and reformed abuser. With their stories, we’ll explore the realities of harm, the road to healing, and the power of accountability and transformation.

Spiritual abuse distorts faith, exploiting spiritual authority to harm individuals and communities. Victims may experience deep shame, fear, betrayal, and a loss of trust in spiritual leaders or institutions. Organizations affected by spiritual abuse often face division, mistrust, and the breakdown of healthy relationships. Recovery begins with acknowledging the abuse, creating safe spaces for open dialogue, and seeking professional counseling or spiritual direction. Forgiveness, transparency, and accountability are essential for rebuilding trust and restoring wholeness. Join Dr. Mark Hausfeld, Dr. Grant Jones and Dr. Beth Davis as they discuss pathways to healing for individuals and organizations.

Spiritual abuse involves using religion to control or harm others. For the abused, signs include feelings of guilt, shame, fear, and isolation, often paired with loss of autonomy or spiritual freedom. Abusers may exhibit controlling behavior, manipulation, and misuse of spiritual authority to dominate or exploit. Join Dr. Mark Hausfeld, Dr. Grant Jones, Dr. Beth Davis, and Nathan Davis for an insightful discussion on recognizing and addressing this critical issue to foster healing and healthy spiritual environments. Question from attendees during the webinar are welcome.
