From the Back Cover: Have you been hurt by the very people you trusted most-your church leaders?

Have you given your time, money and talents to the Body of Christ, only to find yourself hurting, frustrated or confused? Are you a Christian leader who has hurt the flock God entrusted to your care? If you have felt used, controlled or even abused by your church leadership, you may be entangled in a toxic church. Pastor Marc Dupont points the way out of unhealthy spiritual relationships and into the freedom Christ offers.

Toxic Churches explores all aspects of spiritual abuse in the church. With care and tenderness, Dupont offers help and hope to those caught in abusive situations and provides a healing balm to those with residual pain from past abuse. Dupont also gives leaders engaged in abusive behavior ways to make it right.

“Marc Dupont’s book, unlike others I have read on spiritual abuse, goes directly to the problem of abusive churches.”-From the foreword by John White

“All readers walking through abusive pain will hopefully have the experience of walking into the Father’s heart by reading what Marc has written.”-Jack Taylor, Dimension Ministries, Melbourne, Florida

“I heartily recommend this book to you, both for yourself and for friends who are needing to come free from spiritual control.”-John Arnott, senior pastor, Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship
