In your 20s watching an objectively terrible movie, based on an IP that you love is the exact same as going to confession. Father tonight I am clearing my sins and watching The Electric State on Netflix 🙌 #christianguilt #churchtrauma
5 ways to radically improve your communication with someone experiencing church hurt:
-Listen far more than you speak.
-Don’t tell them how to feel.
-Ask permission to offer advice before giving it.
-Avoid cheap and easy cliches.
-Resist the reflex to “fix” them.

Have you experienced generational church trauma? Many can relate to feeling let down by the church. The disillusionment is not just a small scene. #ChurchTrauma #ReligiousInstitutions
I believed the lessons of my childhood church with my whole heart.
I still do.
This poem is my question back to them: What happened to you?

Silence after church trauma isn’t holy 😶🌫️—it’s heavy.

Maybe it’s your time too.

A woman-powerful, independent, unrepentant, called “Jezebel”
It's not "scripture," it's patriarchy dressed as theology.
This misogyny also fuels queerphobia, and transphobia.
The feminine is despised in all
Jezebel is a bad ass!

Christians love to use “Jezebel” as an insult.
Maybe Jezebel wasn’t the villain.
Maybe she was a badass survivor.
👉 Part 2 drops tomorrow: Why Jezebel still matters today.

Not all churches are safe.
Especially for us—Two-Spirit, Indigenous, neurodivergent, survivors of residential schools.
Faith without justice is colonization.
Land acknowledgments mean nothing without change.
We deserve truth, safety, and healing.

Fake-friendly churches lure LGBTQ+ people in, then try to “fix” them.
Here’s how to find the real affirming churches — and avoid the traps: hollypettit.substack.com/p/where-can-...

Hollywood sells it. The Church profits from it. Fear is the oldest business.

I faked tongues while thinking about nachos and Levi Sanford’s forearms.
They called it healing.
I call it trauma.

I know they’s Gods’chilren, but I swanny! Just seeing some of their names on social media runs chills up and down my spine and makes me grit my teef!
There’s trauma and then there’s #churchtrauma #retiredpastor
I honestly don’t know how to explain this, but I’ll do my best to describe. Trump shared an AI generated video of Trump Gaza on TruthSocial. It’s absolutely bananas. This is a still, an ENORMOUS golden image of himself, inexplicably in the middle of the street. Palm trees on either side. Mason Mennenga teased the Veggie Tales episode of Rack Shack & Benny in his caption by quoting the song “The bunny, the bunny, whoa I love the bunny” In that episode, they teach the Bible story of evil King Nebucanezzar and how he built an idol to worship. He through people who didn’t into the furnace. 3 people were thrown in and God saved them. You can find out more of the story in Daniel chapter 3 of the Bible. The Veggie Tales episode is worth the time as well. The song will never leave you. 😆 The Left Behind books I referenced are about the rise of the Antichrist. He also builds an idol in New Babylon, which was Israel. It’s all really disturbing. I don’t recommend reading those books.
As someone who read the Left Behind series, today on the internet has been a lot. Thankful for Mason’s Veggie Tale laugh.
And everyone I read it with is MAGA now. They can’t see it.
The trauma never ends. But the United States probably will. 🥴

I have learned that many of my enemy are those in the church. Many tell me there is no such thing as #churchtrauma and that they preach the truth but the so called "truth" lead to the abuse and treatment I had to face until my disability was finally diagnosed #disabilitysky #disability #church
My pastor & bishop both did & told the congregation if we don't we would be ruining the country. Whenever I talk about my #churchtrauma people laugh or say there is no such thing... they have no idea. If you ever have time please check me out on the Handicapable Black Woman on #youtube. No pressure
Don’t get me wrong. It ended up turning out okay. We can look back now and see that we escaped with some wounds but had we stuck around it would have been so much worse. #churchtrauma 3/5
My whole life I struggled with being LGBTQ in a space that wasn’t safe. I suppressed my feelings because our church regularly preached against it, and sent a young gay man to conversion camp. I came out at 35. Since coming out as bisexual, I have strived to be a safe person. #LGBTQ #ChurchTrauma
