9 Reasons to Run from a Church

This wonderful post by previous Seminary Dropout guest, Roger Olson, and edited by Scot McKnight is a great companion to my “5 Ways to Be Unsatisfied with Your Church” post.

Generally the feedback from the post was positive, but there was some criticism, much of it from people who had been burned by the church and even experienced some sort of spiritual abuse in the past. My only response to those criticisms is that there is no reason why my post and those experiences & complaints can’t both be legitimate. It’s not an either/or situation, rather it’s both/and.

That’s why this post by Olson is also good to keep in mind when you experience a rift in your church life.
