In this Pop-Up, Dr. Mark Karris will guide us through research on why individuals are distancing from or leaving the church and discuss the differences between spiritual abuse, religious trauma, religious disorientation growth syndrome, and adverse religious experiences. We’ll also delve into the religious trauma caused by Hell indoctrination: the unholy trinity of traumatizing beliefs in a tormenting Hell, a wrathful God, and human depravity. Lastly, we’ll explore the impact of these beliefs and coping strategies, and describe healing interventions for those with religious trauma.
