Hi. I'm Dorothy from the Texas Hill Country. I'm a retired Episcopal priest and a spiritual abuse survivor. In retirement I want to reach out to women who have been spiritually abused by someone in their church, empowering them to find their path through healing toward discovering their unique Ultimate Creative Potential in Christ.
I take the definition of spiritual abuse from Barbara Orlowski's book: Spiritual Abuse Recovery, in which she says that spiritual abuse is "the misuse of spiritual authority to maltreat followers in the Christian Church."
I would love to have conversations about this. Anyone?

Hi, Dorothy! Welcome!

I grew up in East Texas and lived there for most of my adult life. The Hill Country is my favorite part of Texas!

Thank you for your faithful ministry and enjoy the forums!
