Erin Clements expresses her need for empathy through the church to have others bear the burden of her recent experience with her sexually addicted former husband. She had experienced a life trauma contrary to her Christian upbringing and what she knew to be God’s desire for marriage. Her life was in six months of turmoil and chaos. She turned to the church to engage others who would empathize with her need for emotional support. Erin found her greatest asset came from those outside the church. Her testimony explains her emotional needs while engendering an appeal for others in the church to engage through listening, which demonstrates care. Larger churches can benefit smaller churches through effective collaboration.
