This episode covers the 5 things I wished I knew when self publishing. There's a lot that can go into self publishing and I learned the hard way by doing it all on my own the first time I self published. But I learned so much and was able to figure out best practices as well as things I would have done differently or wished I had known. I've helped many people walk through the self publishing process and helped them with these 5 things as well. I hope today's episode gives you some tools in your tool belt on your self publishing journey.

Church isn't just a building or on Sundays and today's episode helps us see ways that we can be active beyond Sunday. We also talk about community and church community along with some of the struggles we face with church community. We talk again about church hurt and burn out and expectations as well.

How to heal when you've been hurt by the Church with Pastor Brian Cromer | S3 E37

This week’s episode is with my pastor, Pastor Brian Cromer. I got to sit down and talk through a few questions that I commonly hear in conversations regarding church. We get to talk about church hurt and how can we heal in areas we’ve been hurt without giving up on church. We discuss expectations for pastoral care and how we can build relationship and communicate our needs within the church. We also talk about burnout from serving and getting over involved in church and how we can recover from that as well. I hope today’s episode will encourage you to meet with your own church leadership if you are feeling any hurt, frustration or burnout so that you can heal too and continue to be a part of your local church.
