Summary

One thing we know about infections: some of the most difficult to treat are actually contracted inside hospitals. How is it that the place where we come to heal can also be the very place where some of our most painful experiences of trauma occur? From pastoral and spiritual abuse to sexual assault that spares no denominational traditions, that place where we would expect to be as safe as any can at times seem like just the opposite. And who would want to have anything to do with a God that would appear to turn a blind eye to such behavior? Join us as we pull the curtain back on what it means to encounter trauma in the church—only to discover that what we encounter may surprise us, especially when we find out that none of it surprises Jesus. And he is just the one we need to help us make sense out of what makes no sense at all.
