From Rev. James

On Sunday, February 18, I shared a message about religious trauma titled “Nobody Can Love You Like a Church. Nobody Can Hurt You Like a Church.”

If you missed that Sunday, you can watch my message from that morning on YouTube.

If you would like to learn more about religious trauma as well as high-control religion on your own, I recommend the following books:

• When Religion Hurts You by Laura E. Anderson
• The Religious Trauma Survival Guide by Anna Clark Miller
• Sacred Wounds: A Path to Healing from Spiritual Trauma by Teresa B. Pasqual

If you have participated in a high-control religion in the past or have experienced religious trauma in the past and would be interested in participating in a group at UUFR with others who have had similar experiences, please contact me at james@uufr.org to let me know of your interest.
