In this episode, we dive into an important aspect of the Her Formation worksheets in the Follow(H)er workbook— the role of the church in the life of a follower of Jesus.We unpack the journey of finding a good church, navigating church hurt, and understanding how to navigate our personal church preferences. We discuss the emotional and spiritual challenges that come with church experiences, explore what makes a healthy church, and reflect on how healing and discernment play a key role in our spiritual walk. It’s a conversation about choosing church community wisely—one rooted not just in comfort, but in Christ-centered growth.
