Thank you for raising your voice about abuse. Very needed. Your steps are helpful and practical. I resonate with your experience. We left our church two years ago after 25 years. I never expected that to happen. It was traumatic for many reasons, one being the refusal of others to recognize the source. Have you read "A Church Called Tov?" It is a well written book which addresses narcissistic sourced abuse in the church and fleshes out characteristics of a healthy church. It facilitated healing for my husband and me.

Oh Stephanie, I’m so sorry. That’s so painful 💔 I haven’t read Tov yet but I recommend it to others because I’ve heard so many great things about it. The Subtle Power of Spiritual Abuse was another book that was really helpful for me.
