Through years of coaching and a lifetime in the church,  I have observed a consistent pattern across hundreds of people and situations:  too many have been hurt, let down or quietly sidetracked by their church experience.  

​

The survey was created to better understand those experiences.  

​

In my work, I have seen that healing often begins when a person is able to put their story into words.   What has been carried in body, soul, and spirit  - whether on paper or with a trusted listener - can, once expressed,  begin to release what has been held.  

​

This is my hope  (and prayer) for you too.  ​

​

Thank you for taking part and for sharing your story.
