Wounded in the Church by Chris Hayward,Ray Beeson Pdf
Church should be a safe place, right? Then why do so many get hurt there? Ray Beeson and Chris Hayward combine their years of ministry experience to address head-on the elephant in the room: church members and church leaders hurt Christians. All the time. And the long-lasting effects—rejection, shame, despair, loneliness, fear—can be devastating. The authors have witnessed the rise of the “dones,” those who are just done with God thanks to scars from church. With first-person stories of hurt and loss, this book is a wake-up call for any who deny woundedness in the church but is also a redemptive message for any who hurt from church wounds. Leaders and laypeople alike will learn how to grieve over abuse, to leave unhealthy attitudes and patterns that cause pain, and to trust in God’s real, delivering work through churches that build up, not tear down. Thanks to the grace of God, there is always hope beyond the pain.
Gloria Kelsey has experienced several traumatic events in her life, including a near-death experience at birth, an abusive and toxic marriage, and the death of her two children. Walking through the chapters of her life, you will discover how unresolved trauma built strongholds of insecurity, fear, and rejection within her soul. Agreeing with an oath of secrecy, and suppressing negative emotions, caused physical and psychological distress; blocking the healthy flow of energy within her body and creating an environment for disease to exist and develop. As Gloria travelled the healing path, she learned that many diseases originate from traumatic situations and that emotional memories from painful events were stored in her brain, and at the cellular level of her body, along with the anger, grief, and stress associated with those events. Living in a toxic marriage caused Gloria to come into agreement with a casualty covenant that brought reality into being; negating God’s Word and impeding her body’s ability to heal. As she allowed the Lord to navigate her through the healing process by dealing with the roots, fruit and effects of emotional and psychological trauma, the ticking bomb of unprocessed trauma was diffused. The Lord brought healing to her spirit, soul and body; giving her the freedom to cross over ‘Jordan’ and come into her divinely appointed destiny!

Sin is not the Christian's greatest problem--guilt is! Like so many Christians, you may acknowledge that Christ has forgiven your sins, and yet you still may find yourself feeling guilty about significant moments in your past, whether they took place ten years ago or ten days ago. Why do you feel that way when you know you've been forgiven? Every person who has achieved significance for God has had to first overcome a mountain of guilt. Jacob, Moses, David, Peter and Paul were all monumental sinners who had every right to wallow in a prison of guilt. But these men threw off their shackles of shame to become remarkable heroes for God. What turned them from guilt to greatness? How can you and I live 100% guilt free? In this book Martin Steel reveals strategies to overcome the tentacles of guilt and shame that reach out to claim your future. You can become a champion for God, but first you must learn how to deal with guilt. These powerful strategies will guide you towards a life of freedom, forgiveness and victory. It does not matter what you've done in the past, God wants to give you another chance. As you read this book, you will find God whispering to you the unmistakable message of the cross: Shame off you!
From Shame to Peace by Teo van der Weele,Teo Vande Weele Pdf
Teo van der Weele has spent many years counselling and working with the victims of sexual abuse. He is critical of current counselling techniques, believing that sometimes the process of uncovering a painful past can be more destructive than the memories themselves. He is also concerned about the underrecognised danger of counsellor-induced 'false memories' and suggests ways to avoid this trap.
What is shame and where does it come from? How can we break free and help others held in its vice-like grip? And what is the gospel when shame is the problem? Shame, humiliation and stigma are all around us. Online shaming reminds us of the power of shame, the crisis of self-worth, the weight of judgement and the need for freedom. At the same time, people are becoming less responsive to gospel messages about guilt, morality and sin. If we want to reach those around us and bring healing to their hurts, we need to speak their language: the language of shame. This book helps Christians to introduce 'shame thinking' into their own lives and the lives of those they disciple and evangelize. Above all, it shows how God's freedom can release anyone suffering from the debilitating grip of shame.

The Shame Factor by Robert Jewett,Wayne Alloway,John G. Lacey Pdf
This volume deals with the varied forms of shame reflected in biblical, theological, psychological and anthropological sources. Although traditional theology and church practice concentrate on providing forgiveness for shameful behavior, recent scholarship has discovered the crucial relevance of social shame evoked by mental status, adversity, slavery, abuse, illness, grief and defeat. Anthropologists, sociologists, and psychologists have discovered that unresolved social shame is related to racial and social prejudice, to bullying, crime, genocide, narcissism, post-traumatic stress and other forms of toxic behavior. Eleven leaders in this research participated in a conference on "The Shame Factor," sponsored by St. Mark's United Methodist Church in Lincoln, NE in October 2010. Their essays explore the impact and the transformation of shame in a variety of arenas, comprising in this volume a unique and innovative resource for contemporary religion, therapy, ethics, and social analysis.

Shame has many faces. From the pressing need to avoid "losing face" to the urge to scapegoat and blame, from the desire to exclude those who are different to the horrors of ethnic cleansing, from the obsession with body image to the abiding terrors of the abused, shame is a universal phenomenon. It transcends boundaries of time and is evident in diverse cultures across the world. It is, furthermore, found throughout the pages of Scripture, yet in modern theology shame is conspicuous by its absence. This book attempts to redress the balance by exploring the theology of shame, from its inception in the garden of Eden, to the final triumph over shame on the cross. Restoring the Shamed will offer readers the opportunity to think theologically about one of the most urgent, yet strangely secret, issues of contemporary society.
In this revised edition Sandra D. Wilson explains the patterns of thinking and feeling common to adult children of dysfunctional families and helps them start on their own journey toward freedom and wholeness.
From Shame to Beauty (Women of the Word Bible Study Series) by Marie Powers Pdf
There are two kinds of shame. Legitimate shame is a tool in the hands of a forgiving God; we feel it when we recognize our sin and turn to Him. False shame, on the other hand, is a tool in the hands of the enemy; Satan uses it to convince believers that they are not worthy of God's love and acceptance, and to turn them away from fellowship with Him. In From Shame to Beauty, readers will discover how to arm themselves against false shame and live confidently in the knowledge of God's love. This interactive study, ideal for individuals or small groups, guides readers through a process of healing from false shame that has plagued their lives and relationships. From Shame to Beauty features eight topical studies. Topics include "Characteristics of Shame," "Cause of Shame," "Contagion of Shame," "Cure for Shame," and more. Each week's study examines how false shame threatens the lives of believers, digs into Scripture to find out what God's Word has to say about it, offers readers the opportunity to reflect on their own struggle with shame, and suggests practical action steps to help readers apply what they have learned.
Shame is a much misunderstood and often misdiagnosed problem that can cause significant issues in the church as in wider society. Indeed, there have been times when the church has even been the cause of shame. How, then, do we create a less shaming church? Shame and the Church presents a six fold typology of shame: personal, communal, relational, structural, theological and historical. Seeking to establish the causes and consequences of shame, chapters explore how theology and the Bible engage with shame, and consider personal firsthand accounts of shame in a church context. Wise, challenging, practical and underpinned by a rigorous theological foundation, this book is an important contribution to the conversation around shame and effacement in church contexts and at the same time a vital aid to practice.
