Shit My Pastor Said

They said it with a smile to appear playful. They would call us family, so we would bind ourselves tighter, while their power sat firmly in the center. They cried at the end of a long day, “We are the luckiest people in the world to have this job!” as we trudged back into another twelve-hour shift. Shit My Pastor Said is a space to expose, name, and process the spiritual abuse and manipulation we’ve carried for too long. This isn’t just about venting, it’s about reclaiming. Together we’ll: Laugh at the absurdity of what was said to us. Cry at the weight of what we endured. Inspire one another as we move toward healing. Because sometimes the best way to start mending wounds is by naming them out loud.
