Trauma In The Pews: The Impact On Faith And Spiritual Practices

This book presents the need for the church to become 1) trauma informed - acquiring knowledge and understanding about trauma, 2) trauma sensitive - recognizing how trauma impacts our lives and faith, and 3) trauma responsive - ministering to people who have experienced trauma in effective and compassionate ways. There are still many in our churches whose suffering has been overlooked, and perhaps they aren't fully aware of how they've been personally affected. But with a different lens, our faith communities will become safer places for everyone; those who have experienced trauma and those who walk beside them in families, faith communities, schools, and businesses alike.
