Introduction
This section is for those former pastors, missionaries or christian workers who have been hurt by their organization, another christian or whatever. In its pages will be words as God leads to help people get over the hump and be restored to normality so that they can function for God.
Some of the words will be based upon personal experience and hopefully no one will take as long as i did to get some healing. I am not perfect yet but this section needs to get started and as i write i hope to complete what i started years ago.
Back in the late 70's and early 80's it was said that Christians were the only group to shoot their wounded and many of you know that this is true and still is true. Helping someone has not been a top priority and when it happens to a spiritual leader it is harder to get help and then move on from that tragedy.
One reason this website was started was to provide annonymous help to those who are afraid to expose their problem as they know like i do, other christians do not forget and it is hard to put such hurts in the past. They may not say it to one's face but they sure do say it behind one's back, hindering any hope of recovery. In the end one must move to another city, state or even country to get the required privacy to deal with the problem properly until one is ready to publically talk about what happened.
It is a sad situation when one thinks about it as the church is supposed to be the place one can go and get help fromthose who understand, yet far to often that is not the case. For whatever reason too many christians abdicate their duties and turn people away, sending them to the secular businesses, where God is not looked upon as a viable option, to get help. This is also not right as the church i smissing out on opportunities to give God glory and to see what He can do for His people.
This section is not a church bashing time, it is not a finger pointing time but examples need to be listed so people get the idea of what is being talked about. If any readers have stories they would like to share to help others, please use the pastor's forum or the woman's forum to do so. Sometimes reading what others have gone through will help those who are caught up in troubles to find their way to healing. (please keep identities out of the stories, this is not a place to hurt others).
The section will take shape over time and the first sub-page will be just some basic advice to point one in the right direction. (again use the site map to access all pages).
