When The Church Shoots Its Wounded- Spiritual Trauma & The Betrayed Spouse

The two most important covenants Corri made, to marriage and to full-time ministry, were pulled out from under her in 2014 when she discovered ongoing addiction in her marriage, sought help from her leadership, and was fired. While Corri’s heart and marriage have been resurrected, the journey of belonging again after spiritual trauma is ongoing. The marginalization she experienced at the hands of the body of Christ, due to common misunderstandings about sexual addiction and betrayal trauma, continue for others in ministry and church communities. Corri and Kristin unpack their personal and professional experiences with grace and truth regarding this pandemic affecting the church and they give tangible advice for how to love someone reeling from the devastation of betrayal.
