I went to a therapist because I would have rather cut off my hand than go to my church and tell them I was struggling with it. I would have been taken off of every ministry that I was on; I would’ve been shamed; I might have experienced church discipline. Church is supposed to be where you feel safe and come for prayer, but no, you don’t do that there. At church you show your shiny self that Jesus redeemed. You’re together.
