Have you ever walked away from church feeling more bruised than blessed? You’re not alone.

In this heartfelt and humorous episode of Divine Shenanigans, Brynn Whited dives into the real pain of church hurt—from toxic Christian culture to judgmental pew mates—and how to begin the journey of spiritual healing without giving up on Jesus.

Through personal stories, Scripture (hello, Pharisees), and the messy grace-filled process of deconstructing without destroying your faith, we’ll laugh, cry, and maybe shout “Amen” in our pajamas.

Because God never hurt you. People did. And guess what? You’re still allowed to heal.

🕊️ If you’ve ever been wounded by religion but still crave authentic faith, this episode is your safe space.

📌 Topics Covered:

  • What is church hurt?
  • Why spiritual trauma cuts so deep
  • Healing from religious wounds
  • Separating God from toxic people
  • Scriptures on spiritual pain and comfort
  • Real talk, redemption, and hilarious confessions
