Think there's not much you can do about it? If so, as secular writer and activist Dan Arel demonstrates in word and deed, think again.

Ecclesiology is the study of the church, which is God’s people throughout the world. God has chosen the church to be his global representative (Matt 28:19) and to glorify him throughout eternity (Eph 3:21). The church is God’s temple (1 Cor 3:16) and his family (Gal 6:10). It is Christ’s body, including various members with different spiritual gifts (1 Cor 12:12-28). It is the salt and light of the world (Matt 5:13-14). While on earth, Christ promised to build his church and that the gates of hades will not prevail against it (Matt 16:18). It is the most important institution in the ...

She believes that trauma, especially in childhood, is one of the enemy’s main tools to block people from experiencing God’s grace, mercy, and love in their lives. It hardens people’s hearts to the idea that there could be a God, especially a loving God who cares about them and is for them.
