WHO WE ARE
Sacred Wilderness was started by a team of individuals who saw a deep need for healing for those who had been spiritually abused by the church. In 2021, they started a podcast that focused on telling the stories of church abuse survivors. They were immediately saddened and overwhelmed at the amount of people reaching out with their own abuse stories and hurt. These people were often so broken and scared to speak out in fear that no one would believe them. Sacred Wilderness was quickly formed as a way to help these abuse survivors get proper mental health care and help provide funds for that care when needed.

WHAT IS SPIRITUAL ABUSE?
Any attempt to exert power and control over someone using religion, faith, or beliefs can be spiritual abuse. Spiritual abuse can happen within a religious organization or a personal relationship. (WebMD)
​
Some signs of spiritual abuse are (but not limited to) using scripture to control your choices, intimidation into conformity, censorship from asking questions, feeling isolated or rejected from your community, public shaming or humiliation, threat of spiritual consequences for not conforming and sexual or physical abuse within a spiritual community.

"Offer up your grief. It is holy incense. Offer it in silence. Voice it in protest. Name the betrayals. Honor what was stolen-in the company of others who will walk in the barren places with you."
