Chris Lawson: When Faith Needs Rebuilding
Manage episode 522713097 series 2943844
Today we welcome back apologist/author/researcher Chris Lawson to talk about rebuilding faith after suffering at the hands of false teachers, bible twisters, heretics or just plain abusive leadership. Today, we refer to this as “spiritual abuse” – but what does that mean? It is often tossed about easily, leaving the listener or reader confused about this rather subjective term. Chris helps us sort out the truth, and help the listener find encouragement and comfort if they have indeed been a victim of damaging church experiences. Chris Lawson is an ordained pastor, missionary, and founder of Spiritual Research Network (SRN). With nearly 30 years of ministry experience, he is committed to proclaiming the Gospel, promoting biblical discernment, and equipping believers against spiritual deception, cults, and occult influences through research and teaching. We talk about those movements that have shipwrecked many, and how God views us when we have been deeply hurt by those institutions we were told we could trust. How can we avoid making the same mistakes again? How can we comfort those who have been abused by spiritual movements and leaders?
