UNFKD Episode 2 - Spiritual Abuse Fkd Up By Faith

    • Religion & Spirituality

Here it is - the second episode of UNFKD. The bonus series to FKD UP BY FAITH in which I explore theological (& related) ideas. Specifically, those which are harmful or misunderstood or just plain wrong!

Here, I tackle the contentious topic of spiritual abuse. Content warnings apply for the subject matter, although I do not discuss any specific cases.

If you are a Fkd Up By Faith listener, you will know that the podcast explores ways in which people have been harmed in religious, spiritual or faith contexts. This kind of harm often spills over into what we might call spiritual abuse. So if you'd like to know more about why I bang on about this subject, have a listen!!!
