Trauma in the Pews with Dr. Janyne McConnaughey

In this episode, I have a discussion with author, trauma expert, and 33 year educator, Dr. Janyne McConnaughey, about her personal experience with religious trauma and her research findings on trauma in religious settings. We highlight 5 ways that religion can re-traumatize those who have had previous trauma. Those 5 concepts include but are not limited to: *Self-loathing *Labeling behavioral results of trauma as sin. *Mislabeling inner turmoil as conviction. *Pastors applauding the effects of unmet childhood needs by overworking ministry leaders who seek validation. *Placing forgiveness before healing.
