This book is to provide a practical approach in understanding the hurts and pains associated with everyday life, most of which can be traced to the abuse and misuse of the Christian faith. Being a young man coming into ministry with little training and no mentoring all I knew was what was modeled before me; I was a prime candidate to become an abuser. I witnessed first hand the destructive power of position, it cost me my family, friends, ministry and self respect, not to mention the destructive affect it had on the population of the church. I had nowhere to turn but to God. I am grateful for the grace of God and its healing power that Dr. Finch has so accurately presented in this book. It was through an understanding of true grace, the umbrella of Grace, that I was able to forgive myself and allow God to restore those things that I had destroyed. -Recovering Pastor "Pope John Paul II stated we live in the most critical time of history in which the church and the anti-church is emerging. This timely work has the potential to be an instrument of hope and helpfulness in bringing understanding and clarity to the individual crisis suffered by Christian abuse. Finch's courage and dedication to speak his truth illustrates the challenges of walking in physical, psychological, and spiritual freedom again. The value to the Christian community, especially for pastors of all denominations, psychiatrists, psychologist, social worker, physicians and all healthcare providers can not be underestimated." -Gloria S. Tipton, Ed.D., L.C.S.W., B.C.D. |
