このコンテンツについて

 Host Rev. Dr. Sheri Pallas speaks with Karl and Laura Forehand, former ministers who deconstructed their faith and left organized religion. The Forehands, founders of the Desert Sanctuary and authors of Out into the Desert, share insights from their journey and upcoming book focused on healing from religious trauma.

  • Deconstruction feels lonely → community and shared stories help.
  • Healing needs the body + mind → somatic work (EMDR, tapping, focusing) + talk therapy.
  • Stages like grief → fear → anger → sadness → peace.
  • Anger is valid, but healing goes beyond it.
  • No quick fixes → patience, self-compassion, and recording your journey.
  • Religion bypassed existential fears → death, freedom, isolation, meaninglessness.
  • Spiritual bypassing adds shame → “pray more” = silencing pain.
  • Rebuilding identity → trust self, not just jump to a new system.
  • Parts/shadow work → see emotions as parts of you, not the whole you.
  • Healing requires being seen + heard in safe, supportive community.
