Spiritual Abuse Resources (19/11/24)

Archbishop Justin Welby’s resignation last week highlights the impact on all those who are survivors of abuse or affected by it. This situation shows the profound impact of spiritual abuse within church settings and the critical importance of protecting vulnerable individuals. For those wrestling with these events or their own experiences of spiritual abuse, we can recommend the following resources:

The Holy/Hurt Podcast, which provides a safe space for understanding and processing spiritual trauma. These conversations are crucial for both healing and preventing future harm. holyhurtpodcast.com

Safe Spaces: supporting survivors of church-related abuse. safespacesenglandandwales.org.uk

Minister and Clergy Sexual Abuse Survivors. macsas.org.uk

Diane Lanberg’s recommended resources for responding to abuse. dianelangberg.com/resources

Broken to Beloved exists to help victims and survivors of spiritual abuse, religious trauma, and church harm and to offer practical pathways toward healing and wholeness by providing resources for recovery. brokentobeloved.org
