In the Pulpit’s Shadow: The Toxic Culture of Pulpit Shaming

Every week, nearly 8 million Americans sit in a church service and listen to a sermon. Most are there to hear a message of hope, connection and faith. But what happens when the pastor leverages the pulpit to publicly shame and humiliate those who dare to rock the boat? 

Join Melissa and Amanda as they discuss their experiences being pulpit shamed and how it became a regular part of the toxic culture of spiritual abuse at "Come As You Are."
