Rev. Dr. Terri Daniel and I sat down for a chat about how religion can effectively complicate grief rather than providing relief. Dr. Daniel is a End-of-Life Advisor, Interfaith Chaplain, and certified in death, dying, and bereavement.
Terri and I have known each other for a few years as we are both part of Helping Parents Heal and Shining Light Parents. We have taught classes on grief together. When it comes to toxic religion, I have lived with the guilt and shame that comes from what so many of are taught in Sunday school. Terri has hands on experience with the dying and the bereaved as a certified counselor.
In this talk, we have a live audience that actively participates, sharing their stories.
