Episode 8 Season 3: Why You Need to Be Gentle With Yourself on This Journey

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.  Breakdown of Episode0:00 Intro4:13 Intro to Episode and Why Gentleness is So Important When Healing7:11 What Happens When There's No Gentleness in Religious Communities 15:48 Why It's Important to Be Gentle With Ourselves Episode Resources: The Publican and the Pharisee Luke 18:9-14 To donate monthly and support the work we're doing go to Patreon to give monthly and Ko-Fi to give a one-time donation.To see all podcast resources, go HERE.  Christian Emotional Recovery ResourcesPodcast WebsiteAccess Episodes, Get Free Resources, and MoreFacebook GroupJoin Community, Get Support, and Get Weekly EncouragementYouTube ChannelSubscribe for Exclusive Material Not on PodcastChristian Emotional Recovery StoreGet meditations, infographics, journals, and other resources for your healing journeyTrauma SurvivorsCheck out Resources Page for Trauma SurvivorsEmail ListGet updates on episodes, platform, resources, and productsFree ResourceFree Visual A.C.O.R.N Resource to Heal Difficult EmotionsDonate Monthly Through PatreonHelp More Trauma Survivors Through This Ministry  ...
