Wow that novel by Ballard was very Ballardian (he said to the confused looking man who then had to look up what 'Ballardian' means on Urban Dictionary)
churchhurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the churchhurt that was inflicted on me as a child.
