When Churches Go Bad

I'm beginning to work on a new book. It's not a topic that I relish: toxic faith. But I've seen too many people hurt by church and toxic people, so I want to write about how to escape or confront a toxic church experience.

It's so sad to see how these toxic situations suck the life out of people and cause them to lose so much trust. I want to help people reclaim the joy of knowing God.

I plan on pulling together a number of blog posts I wrote two years ago in the wake of a church gone bad near me. Those posts will form the core of my work and then I'll fill in what's missing.

I've asked people for input on this work. You might want to do that yourself. I plan on sending out drafts of the book for advice. If you'd like to be a part of this team, please contact me.
