A Saltine-American is the politically correct term for North American (specifically United States Citizens) not of color. The term resulted from the inappropriate use of the more offensive term "cracker".
"Today in class the children were taught how Saltine-Americans live throughout the United States, and are descendants of unspecified geographic cultures."
church hurt 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 church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.
