Can they live their best lives and continue to pursue happiness in spite of the suffering going on across the globe? Les Talk...

Les Talk About... CHURCH HURT

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2537246/fan_mail/new] Take a deep breath and fill your water bottles, we're talking about church hurt. Your hosts discuss how their experiences with institutions for spiritual growth and safety served disappointment and abuse, deconstruction, as well as what their current views are on the church and the role it plays in their lives.

However, it isn’t always a clear and or straight linear roadto accomplishment. The hosts talk about their squiggly paths from start to accomplishment.
