| dc.description.abstract | Metaphors concerning atonement theology that are misunderstood, poorly defined and clumsily communicated often lead to a mischaracterization of God to those who have experienced trauma or abuse. Theological scholars, local church leaders and pulpit preachers have discussed and debated the correct ways to describe Christ's work of atonement. However, little concern has be shown when communicating atonement theology toward those who have injured by trauma and abuse. This study aims to provide a platform for the abused to share their stories concerning their spiritual formation through the lens of their experience both with trauma and theological teaching by church leaders. | en_US |
