In this episode of Confidence and Coffee, Ashley shares her experiences and offers guidance on finding confidence and hope, especially related to being hurt by the church. She discusses the commonality of feeling betrayed or let down by church members and emphasizes that while people can be the source of hurt, it's crucial to remember that Christianity and Jesus are about healing and love, not harm.
