When You've Been Hurt Deeply by the Church … | Sadie Robertson Huff & Matt Chandler

Pastor and author Matt Chandler joins Sadie, and they dive right in to what it means to be made in the image of God. We hear the phrase a lot (especially at women's conferences, right?), but what does it mean for us as we live in the world every day? And what does it mean for the way we do life with others? Matt and Sadie discuss why God's wrath isn't rage but an incredible demonstration of LOVE. Plus, is community something you crave but have trouble with? You're not alone! Matt shares why failure to be vulnerable to other believers robs you of the opportunity to experience grace in a tangible way, so start investing in community right where you are! God made us and appointed us to be alive at this exact moment and THAT is exciting news. We can be a part of shining the Light of the Gospel right where we are, but it starts by saying "yes" to Jesus. Get your copy of Matt's book "The Overcomers" anywhere you get your books.

[@taylorohlmann4984]

I was really looking forward to diving into the topic of “church hurt”, but not much was really covered. The title doesn’t fit well. I would love to hear more about that topic in the future. However, I did enjoy listening to this - especially Matt’s view on God’s wrath. Thank you both for being faithful to spread the truth in love.

[@patriciaking1577]

We must be so careful to not interpret the word as an allegory when there are very clear biblical meanings of the scripture interpreted by other scriptures ❤

[@deannamartinez7233]

Actually, We are- “The Church”and many people think that they have to stay in a (church- building.) When you are in a church building that is not going anywhere or deceiving people- So on and so forth…ect. Not feeling The Peace of The Holy Spirit in you. We as The Believers In Christ and that are Born Again, The True ( Church) ❤ Can go anywhere and Preach/ Share and fellowship together as one- Church. So many people leave and fall away because of this way of thinking- some how it has to be in a building- org. This is why it’s important to have a Relationship with Our Heavenly Father and to walk with JESUS like he did with his disciples- This wasn’t done in a Church building it was walking on the roads and in public places- in their homes…ect. Remember, The Church (Us) won’t be here for the tribulation and for the Wrath of GOD to come on this earth- We Will Be Raptured Up, first- then after 7 years -HIS Children( Us ) are Coming back With Our Lord and Savior for the second Coming!!! I Hope this Helps, I am a Caregiver and is Always explaining the what and the ways about their experiences they had in churches-building. And Best of All Sharing The Gospel with them and even Family Members!!! 🙌❤️✝️ ALL The GLORY TO GOD!!! Thank you, JESUS!!🙌❤️🙌 John 3:16 KJV Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV ❤️

[@erhardtharris8727]

Old topic. I've been hurt by the church my entire life. But I'm beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel of reformation. The predictable way home - the framework (wineskin) of things that are unavoidably necessary - or I will/must keep my time and trust commitment to a minimum (including the best of 'em). I am now more concerned with seeing christian household headship dawn than I am preoccupied by how old things held me down. Better Topic: what about those who have hurt church people. (Damaged the church from the outside, especially the church in the USA since 1776, and those hurts persist.) OK, my tone is markedly different from Sadie's. KZbin commenters can type whatever. I suppose it's a more manly and challenging tone suited for Christian or especially one of the Robertson clan. On our way, returning home, we are against enemies wearing masks (like I think Matt Chandler is skilled at doing! But I'll watch this): a. By ignoring and maligning Young Earth Research/Believers in the press - and all those challenging Darwin in the classroom. (Note to the world: God's Not Dead. "Inherit The Wind" was a hit piece, and the actual case was based on a fraud: Piltdown Man was not a real thing. Yet many (even still) utilize that bit of 1950's propaganda to slam Sadie's area of faith. But Sadie would probably smile along sweetly and then preach what she needs to preach - cuz that's her style. b. By using the militaristic monopolistic religion known as Islam to stab at Christianity by likening Bible Believers to Empire (what they mean by "Colonialists".) (Handmaids Tale? That is pure, lying, mischaracterizing propaganda having more in common with 1965 DUNE atheistic-hippie caricature-strawman-projection than actual reality.) c. By attacking (both in legal system and via terrorism & 'accidents') farmland, logistics, and food supply infrastructure around the world. While also dismantling and maligning energy infrastructure. All while CBDC 5G AGI totalitarianism is 'on the way' - and we hasten to spend our way toword collapse. d. Anyone standing for Bill Of Rights, Private Property Owners and their own charity and volunteerism, Biblical Evidences, Bible Access (OBI: Open Bible Individualism) is sidelined, maligned, pretended to be ignorant OR boring AND certainly irrelevant. OR (the newest thing:) officially labeling them as christian nationalist terrorist threats. As the Obama-Biden crowd does from DC when in control. Protest against local regime-school sex ed? Get the FBI investigating you. e. Euthanasia, Abortion, TransHumanist Technocracy, and all of that is on the march, regarding human life as fodder for wars for dominance over the future of 'mother goddess' Earth. F: I could, of course, drone on. But I won't. I'll simply stand as if with Buzz Aldron when he took communion while on the surface of the moon in 1969. A story I never heard nor read.... until I happened upon it in 2019, I forgot where. No wonder he punched that guy who told him he never landed on the moon.... It wasn't the first topic on which someone had doubted what he did that day, after NASA had been sued earlier that year (by a notorious feminist atheist) in attempt to prevent a replay of Apollo 8 reading Genesis from orbit of the moon on Christmas. But I forget that we're all supposed to tear at the church more than the vectors used by those who attack Bible believers. Forgive me if I don't trust Matt Chandler at all. But I'll spend some time watching this. Maybe the next 15 minutes will soften my perspective and balance out my concerns. I have similar concerns about Beth Moore as well, btw. I don't consider her a valid christian believer, but again, we'll see what happens in the next 20 years - maybe she'll turn herself around as the cultural winds turn. Rob Bell? That "Blue Like Jazz" guy? That Wallis "Sojourners" guy? Emergent Church McLaren guy? I don't trust them either. I generally distrust TransH (Neo-Darwinian Transhumanists, Posthumanists, Post-structuralists who often call themselves 'egalitarian'.). So my hurts in life have been VERY complex. I've taken stabs from all sides. Almost everywhere I turn. And I find myself among people who do not understand my fight - not the depths of it and how I have fought alone for most of the 4 decades of my life. Because I am not in a culture that understands the Sean McDowell neck of the woods - now picture a Sean McDowell who began as a Oneness Pentecostal but with no family or church people around who understand... not at home, at church, in social circles, in school or college, in media and news, in the arts... There was no one. And it was only God that kept me from falling away into, well, the camp of those I distrust the most. The Beth Moore camp. The Rob Bell camp. The Derek Webb camp. When will the Abraham Accords, The Bill Of Rights, The Institute For Creation Research, and the Oneness Challenges Of The Trinity, and Elon Musk's desire for a positive future - taken together - get some respect and a mutual-support society of psychological healing??? Because we are, indeed, in dangerous and damaging and frayed times - the fallout of both ungodly church formalisms AND cultural marxist maoism (and TransH technocrats) of the 1960's - 2010's. RUMBLE on, post-G0g. And please forgive my long, jaded rant. I've spent many years highly invested in all manner of church circles in the Bible believing world. I know what I'm talking about. Here's to growing beyond Revelation 20:10 all the way.

[@deannamartinez7233]

I have been in 7 different Churches all my life… And I am Sad to say that Only One was The Best, I attended and was Holy Spirit filled!! Only Read and taught from The KJV BIBLE. This was when I was younger and then afterwards moved to another state -5 churches after that were big disappointments. This is why as a True Believer in Christ and is Born Again, We must Pray for Discernment and Ask for Conformation. To many are putting their trust in man and Not Keeping their Eyes on JESUS!!!🙌❤️✝️ Like I have said and will continue to do so- because people/ even Christians want to argue- I just tell them it’s your choice where are you going to be when you die in Heaven or in hell and it doesn’t End there this is where you will spend Eternity in… Remember satan wants to hush The TRUE Believers, but uses the so called Christian’s who are Only for $- wealth and materialistic things…ect. This is The Day and Times We are In. This is The End Times. Time is Short and We All need to be Praying for those who are not-saved…Praying for them to have their Hearts softened and to See The Light And to Get Saved now… GOD BLESS, You and May HIS face Shine upon All of You!!! Keep Looking Up, Our Redemption draw nigh!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@deannamartinez7233]

AMEN!! Revelation 20:10 KJV Titus 2:13 KJV 🙌❤️✝️ We are Going HOME Soon!! Looking for OUR Blessed Hope!! 🙌❤️🙌❤️🥰 The Signs are Everywhere….. Please, Pray 🙏 for ISRAEL!! 🇮🇱 💙🤍 Love and Hugs to you All!!

Matt Chandler supports CRT (critical race theory) and Eric Mason, and his book Woke Church. For an alternative perspective, read or watch Voddie Baucham.

[@DallasFoodBlogger]

Further platforming Matt Chandler is not good for the church, nor is it good for the young women & girls in your sphere of influence. Sadie, you have to start vetting people. We HAVE good pastors in Dallas. There are decent Christian celebrities. Matt literally just came back from a suspension for his behavior. He literally creates his own problems, which is why he’s always in a scandal.
