Church hurt can be one of the deepest wounds a student experiences, leaving them questioning their faith, identity, and belonging. As Youth Leaders, we often find ourselves navigating these difficult conversations, walking alongside students who feel betrayed, abandoned, or unseen by the church. This session will equip you with practical tools and a compassionate framework to minister effectively to students amid church hurt. Together, we’ll explore how to create safe spaces for honest dialogue, foster spiritual healing, and rebuild trust. You’ll also gain insights into how to identify signs of unresolved hurt and how to address it with grace and sensitivity. Join Global Speaker & Youth Advocate Cheryl Nembhard as we reimagine what it means to embody Christ’s love in these pivotal moments of pain.
