John: Jack didn't show up for work today. Apparently he had to go to a family gathering or something.
Jake: sounds like his uncle's cat's birthday party to me.
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.
