I Need Help
Whether you have walked through the disillusionment of spiritual abuse — or you're trying to figure out what happened to you — or you're just wondering if the church you're a part of may be unhealthy, we know what it's like and we want to help.
What is Spiritual Abuse?
Understanding more about the complexities of spiritual abuse, manipulation, and control can help you gain perspective—and get the help you need. Know this: our good Shepherd always tends His sheep with lovingkindness and goodness.
Understanding Adult Clergy Sexual Abuse
People come to their pastors much like counselors, with the implicit understanding that they are trustworthy and safe. Sexual contact or grooming of any kind between a pastor and anyone under their span of care is an abuse of power and is known as clergy sexual abuse.
Support Group
The Way Home offers an online support group for those who have lost trust in the wake of spiritual abuse Wednesday evenings at 7pm ET via Zoom.
Devotional Guide
In the wake of church harm, we need to connect to the heart of God, but it can be difficult to even know where to begin. This 40-Day Devotional Guide was written with you in mind, gently paving a path to Jesus with care, kindness, and compassion.
Companion Guide to Healing
The territory of spiritual abuse is hard to navigate. Request your Companion Guide today and let the compassion, gentleness, truth, and practical helps presented in it help you as you walk the road ahead.
Prayer Allies
Are you coming out of an abusive situation? We have a team of prayer allies committed to pray for you personally over the next year if that would serve you. No pressure, no expectations from you—just gentle, knowing prayers on your behalf for the journey.
Care Packages
Those who have walked this road know how isolating and difficult it can be. Donors are invited to sponsor care packages providing a gift of kindness to let others on this road know they're not alone. If you're in a difficult place, we'd love to share a care package with you.
Reclaiming Your Boundaries
Spiritual abuse, especially in intense environments, often breaks down healthy boundaries over time. This resource gives practical steps to rebuild and reclaim your boundaries.
Book Clubs
