![]() Doug Walker, Trauma Sensitive Ministry presenter @ Innovation 2019, shared, "Most ministries seek to comfort those who are in distress, help those less fortune, and desire to alleviate suffering where they can. But, in doing so, perhaps they have not even considered those quietly suffering in their churches and communities due to the present difficulties resulting from past traumatic experiences? How might the church minister more effectively to these individuals? The answer is to become trauma- informed. So, what is “trauma-informed ministry,” and does it have a place in your church and community?" |
