Hurt In Church? How God Heals Where You Were Wounded by Pastor Nigel Brown | JO-BERG CONF
Description
Many are hurt in church. Hannah was provoked in the house of God, yet she chose God’s will there and found healing there. Elkanah’s double portion models grace amid broken systems. The call is clear: refuse bitterness, stop replaying the wound, forgive, plant yourself, and let God turn the place of pain into the place of joy. Includes a real-life testimony of healing and recommissioning.
