About this listen
What do you do when the place meant to bring hope ends up causing pain?
In this message, Lou walks through four levels of church hurt—from tough love to deep wounds—and offers a path toward healing. Whether you’ve experienced shame, betrayal, manipulation, or even abuse within the church, you’re not alone. And it was never supposed to be this way.
This message isn’t about pointing fingers—it’s about finding clarity, healing, and the kind of honesty that creates healthier communities.
