The Betrayal Recovery Transformation Podcast

Recognizing & Healing Spiritual Abuse with Stacey Smith


Listen Later

Stacey Smith, a trusted voice at Daring Ventures, returns to the Betrayal Recovery Transformation Podcast to unpack the often-hidden topic of spiritual abuse. With deep wisdom and a passion for justice, Stacey helps individuals heal from trauma, reclaim their identity, and walk in the truth of who God created them to be.

In this conversation, Stacey joins Kris and Jenn to explore how spiritual abuse can take root within faith communities—often cloaked in tradition or twisted theology—and how women can move from confusion and pain toward clarity, courage, and freedom. She shares how recognizing God’s true character brings restoration and empowers women to rediscover their voice and worth in Him.

Key Takeaways from the Episode:

  • What spiritual abuse is and why it can be difficult to recognize
  • How Scripture is sometimes misused to control or silence women
  • The ways Jesus elevated and empowered women throughout His ministry
  • Why silencing women in the Church diminishes God’s full expression of who He is
  • How to find healing, freedom, and restored faith after spiritual harm
  • Practical ways to use your voice and live in alignment with God’s truth
