Related Questions
I have a question about the episode \[Unedited] Sally Kohn and Erick Erickson with Krista Tippett and the clip Spiritual Journeys. As someone who has trauma around spirituality and religion, how can I understand how spirituality comes into my relationships, especially after experiencing betrayal, rejection, and deconstruction when leaving the church? I feel misunderstood if I meet someone who is religious. Part of this is my own deep connection with spirituality and love of philosophical thinking, but I think some of it is also affected by trauma. Is there anywhere else that I can understand this further if I can't find the specific episode of the podcast that discusses this topic?
What role did spirituality play in a specific event or context?
