i just LOVE this post by Ann Aschauer. Sometimes I hesitate to post things that aren’t directly related to PTSD issues, since this is A Blog About Healing from PTSD. I don’t want to bait and switch anybody, ya know? However — my chaplain husband and I have both been diagnosed with PTSD, and our Christian faith has gotten us through when nothing else could. Especially during this extremely stressful time that the whole world has been going through for past year and a half, with the covid-19 coronavirus pandemic — we would be at our wit’s end, if not for our faith. And, as Ann so eloquently and humbly explains in the following post: Here’s Our Big Chance! Thank you for stopping by, I really do appreciate it.

So many have created God’s nature in their own angry and vengeful image, especially the part insisting that ‘God hates ______’. I sincerely wonder whether there is any real hope in a furious God who requires pain-suffering sacrifice?
