Christy tackles the topic of spiritual abuse and unhealthy church cultures, specifically speaking out the use of NDAs, quick restoration processes, and coverups in churches and Christian organizations. She asks questions and encourages her listeners to ask questions as well.
* What are we protecting?
* Who are we protecting?
* What are we hiding?
* What needs to be brought into the light?
* Is it worth the mess and chaos to tell the truth?
There is a horrible epidemic of unhealth within our American evangelical churches. Christy wonders why. She talks about our pretend bubble world that we often create, the happy endings we long for, and the lengths we are willing to go to keep those fantasies alive.
Christy references the story of Jesus flipping tables in the temple and wonders if he was upset about creating a place of dishonesty and consumerism within the space that was for anyone to seek God. It reminds her of what we are dealing with today in our churches.
Finally Christy encourages her listeners to tell the uncomfortable truth, ask the hard questions, and follow Jesus above anything else.
